    Hi gang
    I don't know if you're interested but I have been reading up on bra fitting and it seems most of us are in a totally wrong size!
    M & S have a terrible track record so I went on there and did their calculation and came out a 36 D ....much bigger than what I usually wear.
    I found a site called Boob or Bust which gives step by step intructions and came out a 32 G on there
    Not much differnce I hear you say !
    Anyway I went upstairs and raked through dd's old (actualy new) bra stash and found a 32 e .
    Wow, never had so many compliments and dd kept looking at me saying, "what's different ?
    I am off out now to try some new ones on .

    I'm a big advocate of Boob or Bust, I'm pretty sure I've posted about them on here in the past. So many women are blindly following companies like M&S who use old, outdated methods of measuring and think anything over a 'D' cup is massive when in actual fact a cup size is absolutely meaningless without the band size.
    ...those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind.

    There's a fork in the road, which way will you go
    You standing still or will you step into the great unknown,
    Is yours to decide, this is your life.

    Thank you all. Is it worth £25 each which is roughly what it will cost?

    Morning all. I couldn't get to A yesterday because the traffic was hell :mad: so I went this morning and didn't find very much other than empty gaps on the shelves :( had to look ultra carefully because everything was white labelled so easily missed.

    I'm just back from A queenie and I've got some new things to show you......but dashing out first to drink wine:D:)

    With 10 days to go we are cutting it fine for using up the AP vouchers :eek:.

    Where is the best value for Sunday on the £10 vouchers please?

    Still "a few" £20 to use up - who would have thought we would struggle with the deadline :o.

    Fortunately we are off on holiday in the UK so will be eating out a bit :).

    Many thanks

    I'd throw the fake mince away now, it's revolting just as the other two freebies are. How veggies put up with c r a p like this god only knows.
