I've never even been in Austin Reed (never feel I'm thin enough) but the shop looks like it stocks very average inoffensive work wear - Headbanger is your problem with Austin Reed and city girls like my problem with pashminas and girls who live in Clapham?

I have 2 pairs of very beautiful Beatrix Ong brogues (bought with a discount and low blood sugar) but I never wear them enough, you've reminded me about them and I will wear them tomorrow with collars over lapels.

Scropey I am still waiting...

Sorry Bessie, the bloody broadband nightmare is to blame for the delay and it's also fucked with my email (I dunno why and how; it's the same with TYF's). Will be sending you electronic nonsense later, if I sort it

If it makes you feel any better, HeadGirl, when I'm my normal thinner size, I look like a weird little girl playing dress-up Now I just look like a transvestite Humpty-Dumpty

I don't own any designer footwear, sale-bought or not

I am CD9 and worried - apart from 2 days during my period and yesterday, my temps have remained above the coverline. WTF? Also bricking it about getting FSH results later

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 10:54

I have no clue about fashion - tight t-shirts and baggy jeans are the thing for me. My pockets usually carry all I need, but if I have to carry a lot to work, I have the least stylish rucksack in Europe to do the job. Oh, and I'm (fairly) sure that heels wouldn't go with my 'look', so its pristine trainers all the way.

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 10:57

Good luck for the FSH result Scorps. I'm sure it'll be fine.

Do you have the heating up too high, dear?

Ariesgirl · 22/03/2010 11:06

Think you've got it from me Cockie. I was musing bitterly the other day about the irony of being so stupid as buying cough medicine for procreating purposes, which has no result whatsoever except to make the snot pour out of my nose instead of down below. Sorry - far too grim information for a Monday morning. And I'm with you on the fashion front - shoe and handbag conversations just make me fall silent because I simply don't know what's going on. Anyone got ay fashion tips for a skinny beanpole with hair like Annie?

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:16
Ariesgirl · 22/03/2010 11:19

Well a bit longer than Annie's to be fair. An autistic once many years ago solemnly told me that I looked like that "gardening lady". Her teacher then said she meant Charlie fucking Dimmock! (It's a total lie by the way - just similar hued hair)

Ariesgirl · 22/03/2010 11:20

sorry - meant "autistic child". Looks like I go round giving people names like an autistic, a mad etc.

Bessie123 · 22/03/2010 11:22

Ariesgirl I do that.

A mad, a shit, a stupid etc

It comes from being on holiday in eastern europe and being asked if the friend I was with 'is really a gay'.

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:27

Another one with hair like Annie here! (Not been skinny for a few years, and never been a beanpole...)

Will read fred properly now...

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:28

I'm guessing you're also a touch younger than Charlie D...

I decided to grow my hair a couple of years ago because I've always fancied having dreads (though ginger dreads have a slightly different 'cool value' than the gorgeous Bob Marley-type dreads that I had in mind). Anyway, after more than a year of back-combing, twisting and trying to dry out my hair, the stuff just Would Not Knot! It has always been the same. There's no brushing required for my locks, which would be a blessing for some, but I really want that shaggy, I've-just-got-out-of-bed-and-I-don't-care-what-I-look-like hair. In the end, I cut it all off again. The only way I can get it to look messy is to have it chopped into from all directions, rather than having a proper haircut. Sigh.

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:31

Wow, we could start our own 'Gingers For Justice' group!

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:33
Bessie123 · 22/03/2010 11:35

Cockdodger I think you should be both, it's more mysterious.

Today, I am a bigfat.

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:38

Glad to see the madness is being shared across two freds banger. Got my fingers crossed for you.

And as for those temps scorps. Fuck knows... Could fuel the menkul and say POAS in case your period wasn't a real one at all, but it sounds liks it felt pretty real. Good luck with the FSH results, sure there;s no reason to brick it.

Loving the fash chat laydeez. Flat shoes, collar up, scarves and comfort sum me up.

Hugs and gin for cockycougher. Feel better soon.

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:38

Bessie I just sprayed my keyboard with tea. Thanks for that

Ariesgirl · 22/03/2010 11:40

Depends which you think is most important. Do you identify yourself more with fellow gays or fellow gingers? I was the only ginger in my family, then got married and found loads of ginger cousins in law! Best day of my life...Not only is my hair ginger but it's completely unmanageable - grows in all directions, some bits curly and some bits less so, hopeless frizz on waking and takes hours of work to enable me to be fit to be seen. And then I go out in a slight mist and the humidity wreaks its havoc. However I do like the colour - it's on the strawberry blonde side of ginger rather than bright shocking carrot colour. My mum has always blamed my astounding temper on the fact that I am both Aries and red headed.
How's the man flu?

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:41

I was thinking about telling Scorps to POAS, but I didn't want to be the first! But seriously, if your temps usually follow a distinct pattern and this is unusual, then you never know...

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:44

yes, definitely difficult to bring any "edge" to ginger curls. I have done the braids thing, generally to make life easier while living the unmentionable lifestyle under canvas and having no access to decent styling facilities, but it just isn't a good look. Also tried the elfin short crop - fine till it started growing out and I started to resemble a paler Dot Cotton. So I just let it grow and an tumble. All a bit too "soft" and girly for my liking, but tough shit.

I'd go for gay ginger...

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:45

I said gay ginger just cause I like the sound of it. Hadn't actually read aries's in depth analysis!

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:45

Aries Can we swap? I'd love to have that kinda hair.

The man-flu is ok. I'm just about bearing up. I may just ring Mrs Dodger at work and cough down the phone at her for more sympathy. I really am pathetic when I am a poorly!

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:46

aries now you are my doppleganger. Pale ginger frizz bomb

CockDodger · 22/03/2010 11:47

Maybe I'm a ganger? (Pronounced ganja, obv)

CurlyCasperReturns · 22/03/2010 11:49

Sorry, dodgy but that just made me take the old "ginger minge" and turn it into "ganga minge", which sounds like a speciality on offer in old Amshterdahm

Ariesgirl · 22/03/2010 11:50

Bessie is a bigfat
Dodger is a gingagay
Aries is a ginganotits
Any other witticisms on a theme?
