The Garden Fence - proper Old Style support and chat!

I had a red boiler suit for painting walls. It was theoretically practical but at the time I couldn't find one to accommodate boobage and also I am long-waisted so basically the legs had to be rolled up but the body was on the short side, even though I bought a large size. But it did have a lot of handy pockets.

Good news - Nargles chant worked and the police have arrested the lowlife who attacked DS yesterday.

Thank goodness for that, I hope your DS is none the worse for such an obnoxious happening? xxx.

Jazee Hope your DS is okay, and great news that the police caught the little !!!! x

If I were to wear dungarees I would look like a pale Minion

He's fine. No headache today despite being punched in the head and falling down.

When I was expecting DS I saw a pair of purple and white striped dungarees
I got my ex to come with me to try them on.

He said "oh no you look like a balloon with a big bump." :rotfl:

The assistant said to him. "I'm glad you said that."

It was a good I did not buy them DS was born two weeks later he was 5 weeks early.

Excellent news - I'm only just catching up with the thread, or I'd have sicced Loki onto the scumbag. I just don't get it - what is wrong with some people, that they just want to cause others hurt and misery?

Brilliant news, Jazee!

I'm pleased to hear so many of you also either have or covet a boiler suit! Red eh?

Monna, you might be in luck. Dungarees are currently trendy again with the oh so fashionable teen set. Gingham I'm not sure about, but I can see exactly why you'd want them

DH bought his (not Gingham, I'm afraid!), from an agricultural supplier's shop, so he could try them on first. They are Dickies and are sooo hardwearing.

VJsmum, we are off to (drumroll ... ... ... ) Switzerland! I can't wait. We went there on honeymoon 19 years ago. Just had the photos out and boy, did we look young then! I shall take my souvenir fleece headband from when we went up to the Jungfraujoch and then walked up another 1200 feet in altitude to the Mönchsjoch hutte. We really felt the altitude walking the steep snow to the hut. Not sure whether we'll try it this time! There is a pic of DH in his mountain gear in the snow beside a rocky outcrop and it looks like he's up K2. After our walk I went sledging up there, DH took a pic just as I hurtled round a bend and went elbow over apex. Happy days.

Sorry, have rambled again!

I tried buying a ladies boilersuit to decorate in........ when it turned up it was just a blokes item with a ladies sizing in it. The proportions were all wrong, the legs and arms were too long. I had to send it back, at my expense of course....... grrrr.




I bought a lab coat in the end to wear over scruffs.
