I had mine layered into a neat strip so I just tidy.

Chasing I am sorry.

Pr I would swap

Glad today was ok wanda

Waves to Jupiter and zamboni and everyone else I have suddenly just forgotten Confused
Designing kitchen for my mums new house

Pikz · 12/07/2014 21:41

Waves back to VQ and booya to pass

Passmethecrisps · 12/07/2014 22:05

Hia pikz!

Sorry to hear you are fed up chasing

Good to know that I am not alone in my waxing innocence. Some people seem amazed as though my lady garden is on permanent display like topiary

PetiteRaleuse · 12/07/2014 22:09

I think it's a generational thing pass

Bikini waxing only got fashionable in France the last couple of years.

Pikz · 12/07/2014 22:10

Each to their own pass. I only had my mine lasered because I was bored of waxing/shaving for hollibobs and gynaecology operations!

Passmethecrisps · 12/07/2014 22:17

Of course pikz! Now I understand your first post better now actually - I read it as layered and had a very bizarre bob-type image in my head! Blush

Zamboni · 12/07/2014 22:28

Mexican wave back to Pikz.

chasing sorry you had a crap date. Hope you can curl up and have a good night's sleep and feel better tomorrow.

I also leave mine alone. I just couldn't be arsed to maintain any topiary. So I don't do any. Fortunately I can wear a swimming costume without needing to so works ok. Am also vair lazy with armpit and leg hair. Not as any kind of statement, just utter laziness. To the point that if DH sees I have shaved my legs he asks me if I have a date!!

PetiteRaleuse · 12/07/2014 22:30

Ha ha zamboni

I also read layered pikz so was a little Hmm :o

BigPigLittlePig · 12/07/2014 22:38

Hahahaha you lot make me smile Smile

Love how I can pop off for an hour and come back to learn about your topiary habits!

I would be terrrrrified if someone approached me with a wax strip Confused My mum once helped me wax my legs and it (mentally) scarred me for life Smile As long as there aren't too many stragglers I'm happy Grin

Not sure quite how/when the whole shave-the-lot prepubescent thing became, well, a thing.

Chasing I hope this has not amused you, as would hate the smiles to worsen the shitty sinus pain. Hugs, and perhaps Brew

Wandathewindfairy · 12/07/2014 23:56

Well. I have a 3/4 leg wax and bikini every 5 weeks. Just into a neat strip just like pikzs it is coming back thinner all the time though so is not too bad.

Hugs chasing come and join SIL and I for Wine and putting the world to rights.

Rowingdowntheriver · 12/07/2014 23:59

Sorry to hear about pilot gut chasing. Might be worth heading to a dr about your sinuses, I had infected sinuses once and it was probably the most painful thing I had ever experienced. Antibiotics fixed it really quickly though.

pikz I've never heard of a layered lady garden before!

Rowingdowntheriver · 13/07/2014 00:01

Ah, lasered , that makes more sense!

bp, i wish I could get away without tending to my fuzz before wearing a swimming costume but I'm a real hairy mary. I'd scare the kids.

TheDetective · 13/07/2014 00:41

I hack mine with scissors. That's all it it requires. Blush

I did one immac the fuck out of it. Can't say it was an enjoyable experience Grin.

It looks okay I think. I can't really see it to be honest Grin.

ValiumQueen · 13/07/2014 05:06

When I was young, thin and single I used to spend many a happy hour doing topiary. Initially a heart, then a landing strip. I had a shaved head and fellow officers random blokes said to me on more than one occasion about it being shorter than WinkWink, and I would say 'actually, no Grin' and watch them buckle GrinGrinGrin Blush

Frankly I couldn't give a flying pig's fuck now. DH is so grateful to get anywhere near it. Although I am going swimming tomorrow...

Lily311 · 13/07/2014 05:12

Oh vq you do make me laugh. And you appeared in my dream. You were my best friend Blush.

I have a strip. It's always neat and tidy. Well, you never know when you get some actions. Best friend guy is actually arriving tomorrow so I'm hoping I will get some next week Wink. I also had a date yesterday, it was ok but I don't want to see him again.

chasing hugs! will text you in a bit

Pikz · 13/07/2014 07:55

Hahahha to layered! GrinGrin

Morning. DH home tonight can't wait!

Right time for mass tidy up before he gets back

Pikz · 13/07/2014 07:59

Chasing sorry for shit dates and lily Hmm kissing frogs...

Pikz · 13/07/2014 08:01

Right time for a weight reality check. Inspired by VQ and stunt and all the others losing weight. Have started my food app and now to do some exercise every day! I can't fit in lots of my lovely clothes Hmm

PetiteRaleuse · 13/07/2014 08:07

Morning all. Packing today :)

Wandathewindfairy · 13/07/2014 08:24

Morning!

What app are you using pikz?

Yay for packing and holibobs.

Today is mainly about lying around the house for the first time since I don't know when. Grin

Pikz · 13/07/2014 08:33

Yay for packing and hollibobs

Yay for lying about!

Wanda have my net diary for food and jawbone up for movement tracking as it also tracks my sleep.

Right 30 day shred here I come

Wandathewindfairy · 13/07/2014 08:41

Brilliant pikz

I lost all my winter weight, 30 day shred really had helped as is easy to fit into busy days, but think I might have put a bit back on with all the visitors . So this week needs to be virtuous in time for my night of passion on Friday Wink

PetiteRaleuse · 13/07/2014 11:45

Mmm. Just had a warm goat cheese salad for lunch. Having a sit down now then going to pop some beef and veg on to slow cook for this evening. In which time I should be able to pack for our short trip to the Loire Valley.

PetiteRaleuse · 13/07/2014 12:14

Squeee. Netflix is coming to France by the end of the year. For less than €10 a month.

ValiumQueen · 13/07/2014 12:31

We have just got rid of Sky and just have Netflix. It is great Grin
