So let us muse upon a cardigan and dwell in Elysian fields of SouthFork where the lips do tremble and the mad roam free.

And fear not the Thicko.

AbsDuCroissant · 29/06/2011 16:43

Right. I'm here. Can't be arsed to read it all, but I've skimmed it, and as quiches go it'll do for me. Lots of lovely types on here.

I agree that no-one aged 8 should be fancying JR. That is just wrong. It was Bobby all the way. Had a Pammy girl-crush myself. Agree about Swellin'. she has a bit of a scuzzy thing going on.

Does anyone want to see my new t-bar sandals? I'll see if I can find them for you.

!

FellatioNelson · 29/06/2011 23:09

here But I didn't pay that much for them, mine were in the sale. I love them - truly. so comfortable. Getorf you hold your tongue now young lady, and just remember how old I am. Needs must, and all that. DS's girlfriend said they weren't grannyish she lied to be nice.

Poledra · 29/06/2011 23:10

Link doesn't work, Fellatio....

FellatioNelson · 29/06/2011 23:11

here

Poledra · 29/06/2011 23:14

Awww - isn't your DS's girlfriend nice?

{grin]

FellatioNelson · 29/06/2011 23:22

What are you insinuating poledra? Angry Look, I have a wide foot. Do not mock the afflicted.

FellatioNelson · 29/06/2011 23:50

They are on my Christmas list. Why do old ladies shoes always have to be in beige and feature punched holes? Confused One of life's mysteries.

Hullygully · 30/06/2011 08:39

and coats. beige coats.

Althjo, I think I know, I already only wear what I think will "do," so by the time I'm well-aged I guess I'll be in any old mac and sandals too. Practically there already.

Thanks for noticing Hulzzzz

Welcome Fellatio!

Man, this is turning into the Best. Thread. Ever*

*apart from the Thickos one. That's still my fave

ShirleyKnot · 30/06/2011 09:32

My nana has to wear those shoes that are called something like "padders" or "woofers" or something. They are revolting, but she's got one big enormo foot, and one normal foot.

Hullygully · 30/06/2011 09:34

PrincessFiorimonde has feet like that and she's only 62. Pore ol her.

Hullygully · 30/06/2011 09:35

Right. I absolutely cannot piss about on MN again all day. I shall have to sack myself soon.

ShirleyKnot · 30/06/2011 09:37

Aw pore ole my nana as well. She's had bag legs and gammy feet for years

I was thinking the other day that Nana has always seemed old to me - even when I was dead little, and it's weird really, because when I was 4 she was only 50. Confused

PinotsEvilTwin · 30/06/2011 09:38

Fellatio. Oh Fellatio. I loves you, I do. But oh no I daren't say what I think about those shoes yes they are lovely . I am wide of hoof, too. Fitflops all the way in this house. Love 'em.

Strangely wide feet don't give you more balance. You'd think they would. Meh.

Shirls does your Nanna really have a gigantic foot? Have you touched it?

ShirleyKnot · 30/06/2011 09:38

No me either - I've got LOTS of work to do.

ShirleyKnot · 30/06/2011 09:39

I wouldn't touch Nana's foot you bloody pervatron.

Hullygully · 30/06/2011 09:39

My work is staring at me reproachfully but I have nothing but distaste for it

OP posts:
PinotsEvilTwin · 30/06/2011 09:42

pervatron I bet it would be hotter than the other. Thats my thinking and I'm sticking to it.

I have no work just childcare and housework. Meh.

AbsDuCroissant · 30/06/2011 09:44

Yes, Fellatio. Those are "interesting" shoes

tries best to be diplomatic
