To thin my 'friends' shouldn't really have been bitching about what I wore to go sledging on Saturday?

I've just got one of those accidentally forwarded emails (at least I ope it was accidental)

I went sledging with an old uni friend , her friends and all of our DC's we had a really fab day.

Now reading this 11 reply long email laughing about what I wore.

I have no idea how I should respond but I damn well want them to know I have seen it.

If you sqint at it, it looks like she has a massive hairy lady garden.

LouLouH · 11/01/2010 13:01

I reckon she's got a super gorgeous bloke and the mates are jealous! So have to make themselves feel better at any opportunity. F**k em, sad bitches!

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 11/01/2010 13:01

Some snippets

almost copied and pasted but realised you'd see all of their email ads eek.

Well how fun was that, chappies are all drinking hot choc now and I'm on the second glass of wine, oh call SS

Hiieee yeah was really fun, can't believe x was in tights though! omg is she that shallow!

Thanks Ladies, we all had a really great time. I might throw my gloves away though - I'm sure there was dog poo in that snowman. OMG! Yeah can't believe her. Never seen her in trousers actually.

Well who does she think she is anyone could have seen her knickers and she might have got really cold fanny. LOL.

I haven't spoken to the NCT crowd since I received a mistaken text message about me. It's so sad, I feel for you. Get it out in the open and hopefully they will apologies. Grrr! New techology....

Heqet · 11/01/2010 13:02

wow it must be a long one cos it's taken 10 minutes to cut and paste!

Unless...you don't think....surely not....

pagwatch · 11/01/2010 13:02

oh very good Heqet

very dignified and places the ball in their court.Can you imagine how awful they will feel.

Stupid behaviour. Most unbecoming from grown women

ChickensHaveFrozenNuggets · 11/01/2010 13:03

The shallow comment would really, really piss me off. Unleash your inner bitch and let her run.

Heqet · 11/01/2010 13:03

oh bugger. x-post

Well, I think you should do the simple dignified response. Any attempt by you to be bitchy will lessen their guilt at what they said about you. (people are funny like that!)

LOL, least you had tights on? I used to get stick for not wearing trousers and it wasn't because I was shallow, I couldn't find them to fit

MrsChemist · 11/01/2010 13:04

Are they expressing shock at you wearing tights because you never wear them, or because you were wearing a skirt and not trousers?

Both are stupid though.

MamaLazarou · 11/01/2010 13:05

Heqet is right. Keep your dignity.

ChilloSTOPFOLLOWINGMEhippi · 11/01/2010 13:06

I think you have every right to be cross and you should let rip on them. What kind of friends slag you off like that behind your back. That's not just discussing you, that's being nasty.

OneTwoBuckleMyShoe · 11/01/2010 13:06

Definitely the dignified response, will make them squirm

TrollerTapir · 11/01/2010 13:06

Shallow for wearing tights - how odd...

I know several ladies who never seem to wear trousers and to be honest i'm at how they manage to look so stylish when my wardrobe consists of several pairs of jeans and a skirt i will never wear...wouldn't know where to start....

A bit of green eyed monster there i think...

DoingTheBestICan · 11/01/2010 13:06

I would reply with a short email back saying i think you have sent me this by mistake,sorry i read it before i realised it wasnt meant for me.

LouLouH · 11/01/2010 13:07

Definitely sounds like they're jealous of you from that email. You've obviously got a great set of pins and they can't handle it.
I would simply write back, if you've got it flaunt it!

MrsChemist · 11/01/2010 13:07

Odd also that they are bitching about what you were wearing, and then in the same sentence called you shallow.

fillybuster · 11/01/2010 13:07

Despite my natural propensity to rant I think Hegets suggestion is the best option here.

FWIW, what the hell is wrong with wearing tights & skirt to do anything? I must have missed some of the special advisory notices from the fashion police....

TrollerTapir · 11/01/2010 13:07

Bugger just realised my namechange from last night is still there...

ajandjjmum · 11/01/2010 13:08

Clearly you could point them in the direction of a good tights supplier, but they still need the legs to put in them!

Good job you were wearing your best knickers with the inbuilt fanny warmer!

Of course, you know who you are, you now know what they are.........certainly not friends!

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 11/01/2010 13:09

I was wearing

2 pairs of opaque purple tights with cycling shorts underneath

Knee length grey leather boots

Black shellsuit material short dress (sounds naff but it isn't)

Many layers under the dress (long sleeved top, umper, vest)

And a leather jacket

I am sorry but I am not an outdoors type and will not waste money on 'outdoor' clothing.

My reasoning is (and I was right) the tights will dry much faster than jeans or such would.

Hence I was fairly warm and dry, whilst they had to get on the tube home with wet bum patches on their jeans/ cords.

WhoIsAsking · 11/01/2010 13:09

How bizarre! Why does wearing tights make you shallow?

Anyway - I agree with "reply all"

All,

It would appear that this email, while containing references to me, was not intended for me to read.

WHOOPS!

StarExpat · 11/01/2010 13:10

How awful. I agree you should send something back that's really short and dignified and not be bitchy back. Heqet is right. You poor thing!
