    On the way back from Manchester today I drove past Leeds...thought of Smashed, Linda and Numpty....could have popped in for a cuppa...

    I really needed one after the nightmare that is M62...I actually thought I could be wiped out at any moment. The spray on the road made it almost impossible to see where you were going and yet some people were driving like maniacs:mad: the road actually looked like a lake...glad to be home safe and sound. I have never been so pleased to see the signs for Hartlepool in all my life.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Hi Lou, I'm fine, had a rubbish day (work stuff) but home now so not going to dwell on it - have food in oven and will have a glass of vino.
    Your drive sounds like a nightmare though.

    IA - as long as they are healthy boobs then I wouldn't worry about the size thing. easier to stick in some chicken fillets than try to minimise though.

    I agree on the chicken fillet approach...I have worn padded bras in the past but on one occassion I was tapped on the shoulder by a man and he said very politely "excuse me I think you have dropped this"...it was the padded insert out of one of my bra cups:eek: Chicken fillets are much less likely to wriggle their way out as they tend to stick to your skin:rolleyes: My hairdresser has just got an oil filled bra and I honestly thought she had a boob job. She did pay £40 though...eeekkk...still cheaper than the surgeons knife.

    Hang on though...if I do go to the Leeds meet I hope that nobody will be trying to work out if I have my fillets in.......cos I aint giving that much info away.
