Girls were finally allowed to wear grey cords at my school in winter when I was 15. I have never worn a skirt in winter since.

Torn !

TornFromTheInside · 30/08/2018 15:36

I'm coming as BlunderWoman

Shampaincharly · 30/08/2018 15:46

We could do a double act !
I am sure they used to do that in the past .
What would your outfit be for that ?

TornFromTheInside · 30/08/2018 16:05

Fishnets with no holes (orange) - second hand defective ones off the market. White stilettos, but one with a short heel to help me drive properly, a sombrero and chest wax.

This ensemble isn't all my owm creation though. My personal stylist recommended it having won the Stevie Wonder visual artist of the rear awards.

You guys can definitely go in as a pair, esp if it's a tag team and then you can share the music.

I think your outfits need to be co-ordinated, though. You don't have to absolutely match, but it should be obvious you're tag partners

Shampaincharly · 30/08/2018 16:19

Did you not like the name Clint ?
I thought it sounded manly , tough , a someone that stands for no nonsense type of name.
You could have walked in chewing a cheroot and wearing a blanket .

Bright pink slink for Blunderwoman. Orange fishnets. White stilletos or stilted toes if one short heel . I think you should have embroidered eyes on your butt. All seeing eyes !

TornFromTheInside · 30/08/2018 16:44

I cant dress as Clint Oris, I would stick out, even if wearing a hood.

KeepServingTheDrinks · 30/08/2018 17:00

And men generally would struggle finding you

TornFromTheInside · 30/08/2018 17:09

Lucky if I can find my car keys!

KeepServingTheDrinks · 30/08/2018 20:13

Actually having men who struggle to find you might be handy, especially if they're very good wrestlers!

TornFromTheInside · 30/08/2018 22:09

Good wristlers more like

Shampaincharly · 01/09/2018 11:45

Getting ready Keep
Hope that pineapple is behaving for you!
Of course, if you are sticking to a retro theme it will be tinned .
Practicing my entrance.
Is there anything you need me to bring?

TornFromTheInside · 01/09/2018 14:43

Can't wait for Shampoo's entrance!

Shampaincharly · 01/09/2018 15:21

Yes , I got the music in me !

Shampaincharly · 01/09/2018 15:22

Poo ?

TornFromTheInside · 01/09/2018 15:26

Well, when you put it like that - it sounds awful! but was more affectionate as 'Shampoo', 'Champoo' - the nickname of Champagne!

Shampaincharly · 01/09/2018 21:45

Forgiven!

TornFromTheInside · 01/09/2018 22:02

Why thank you kind lady!

KeepServingTheDrinks · 02/09/2018 15:22

Sham, Torn. Sorry I was unexpectedly called away. Was everything ok yesterday? You found Keep Hall all right?

Smithers was poised and primed to hit 'play' on the cassette recorder, with the volume turned up to 11 as soon as you ran or pranced down the drive.
All the food and drink from the original thread should have been out. The TV cabinet open, and the television warmed up. The few grim and tacky bits and pieces that MNers sent as advance wedding presents (before Torn backed out of the whole thing) should have been out for you to admire and play with.

Did all that happen? Or do I need to have Smithers taken out and flagellated and perhaps shot?
Oh, and did you enjoy the wrestling? And how did you both look. Could you post a picture on here?

Shampaincharly · 02/09/2018 15:46

Pictures have to be approved by “ my people “
Will post .

TornFromTheInside · 02/09/2018 17:46

Unofficial photos of us were seen arriving at the party...

Shampaincharly · 02/09/2018 18:57

Thanks @Torn
My people still have to airbrush that !

Shampaincharly · 02/09/2018 19:02

And I think that is @mrKeep .
@Torn , where is your picture?

KeepServingTheDrinks · 02/09/2018 19:19

MrKeep wishes

Shampaincharly · 02/09/2018 19:26

Is his tan natural?
