Did you see the Anne Hegerty interview?
“I do not have big bones.
I do not have a glandular issue.
I am fat because I eat enormously.
And I love cake, it’s brilliant.
Yay cake”
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. I love her!!
Everyone knows I’m a heifer after being on tv.
I also like cakeXx

Ooh, page 200 and we're swapping dress sizes! Wannabe, what have you started?!
Long ago I went to a thing called a swap meet, which I think is a New Zealand idea. Friends get together with their wrong-buys, no-longer-loveds, grew-out-ofs, 'was-my-daughter's-but-she-never-wore-it' s, etc. Everyone eats cake and drinks coffee then chooses what to take home. I remember my friends urging me to accept a beautiful outfit that I knew was far too smart for me (I didn't take it). Fun though, and good for the pocket as well as keeping things out of landfill (where apparently horrendous amounts of clothing go). It was all free.
Now I think you might have one in the making here.
