You look nice

[FredaFrogspawn]

I love that top, really suits you. Where did you get it?

@LucretiaBourgeois needs must. I'm using the nub of an old lipstick I found in the bottom of a handbag I haven't used in over ten years. I think the colour is 'Coral Punch', but the label is fairly worn.

Apparently, driving to the shops to purchase cosmetics has been deemed "not essential travel". Harumph.

I'm not sure if I should go with colours that match my roots or not?

No I thnk it adds texture Hugged

I was thinking that too MovingBrisklyOn but I'm not very good with white.

I was at Strange Pat's tupperware party too! I didn't buy anything but fell in the bushes after all those tequilas and George from number 24 escorted me home...
Did anyone see what Carol was wearing? Where the eff did she get that?

Think she must've borrowed it from the trapeze artists, Lily!

Haha probably! To be fair, it did go with her hair....

But made her feet look massive!

It went with her ok, but her HAIR!! Wow.

The recipe asked for upthread:

Large bag of cheese Doritos
Large bottle Mountain Dew
Handful of crumbled corn beef
Chia seeds to garnish

Mix first 3 ingredients. Sprinkle on fourth.

You are welcome.

I wasn’t looking at Carol’s feet, couldn’t take my eyes off Pat’s pool boy - and she doesn’t even have a pool!

Her feet are massive, I've asked her about it before. It's why she's almost always in flares. She says it's to do with her 'condition', but never specifies what it is. Anybody got any ideas what it might be?

He’s fierce Claire’s brother in law. Lost a leg on Black Friday charging the microwave ovens with 5 players from the Leeds Grammar old girls’ veterans. Bad move.

And her ‘condition’ is that she has big feet, Her uncle was the same - rented his shoes out as gondolas during the boatwright strike.

The Boatwright Strike? ... now I remember that!
Makes this current stramash look like nowt...
Toilet paper you say? couldn't get a boatwright for love nor money...

I think the feet are ordinary sized, it's the length of the TOES that does it?

@Eckhart probably related to her Goitre; looks more like an Adam's Apple. She did show me the specialist catalogue where she sourced her Sling Backs from - it had a variety of clothing and accessories that knocked my socks off (the ones I knitted from wool recovered from our Eileen's winter scarf - she obviously no longer needs it, her winter beard does the job grand). Brian's never seen my foundation garments and that catalogue will never darken my door so he won't be getting any ideas [hoiks right bosom].

Thank you, turns out I'm an Autumn according to my mums NDN Barbara who dabbles.

Oh thank you - I love royal blue, I got this in the sale

This old thing - M&S 1989. You can’t see the rip in the armpit. Such a lovely colour.

I can't pull it off Strike I look like Air Hostess Barbie

Can't get corn beef, except for £25.50 for two on ebay.

Could I just mash up some spam with a fork instead?

AIBU? I thought I had a lovely, supportive group of friends, but today I find out that several of them went along to Strange Pat's tupperware party and NOBODY INVITED ME. I could have worn my lovely new top too.

YABVVU poppa

Pat always forgets to invite somebody. Last time it was Carole, who had a MASSIVE tantrum, and then refused to come out of her house for a fortnight. She thinks she set an example and we're all following it, now...

Don't take it personally.

Aufghets - you may as well ask if you can do a Thermidor with a crab.

Poppadopolis - Blue-Shoe Sue said you were at the Ken Dodd memorial bonus ball bingo at Bagshott that night.

Eckhart Do you remember the time Carol and Carole got into the fight about name spellings? Oh my days...

@FredaFrogspawn yes I was but I would rather have been at the tupperware party.

Carole was there too but she totally blanked me.

I did win the meat raffle though so it wasn't a complete waste of time.

Lily I think that ran much deeper for both of them, tbh. Nobody pokes someone in the eye with back end of a wooden spoon just because of spelling.
