and more to the point, are you moisturising your face wildly (with Garnier products of course...)?.... what are you wearing? ....and other important matters!!

I am going (luckily it's not far from my office)... see you there! I will be wearing a pink carnation in my hair and that union jack dress modelled by Geri in the next catalogue so I should be easy to spot ;)

(In case you're wondering, it is a MN panel thing which came round by email not on a MN thread).

The excitement is mounting in the Kbear household... well, just me, not the whole household, they couldn't care less but.... I have new shoes for the occasion and although I hope walking anywhere isn't required, I will at least look taller and feel fabulous.

I hope Davina is worrying about what to wear as much as I am, bet she's not traipsing round the shops with the hump!

LoL KBear - I'll bring the plasters just in case Wink

I'll be in flats or my low heel boots as I don't fancy falling down negotiating the escalators on the tube.....

Apparently its going to be 24C tomorrow, which throws my plan to camouflage the flab look slim in a black dress, black tights and black boots into slight disarray. I may go with slim and hot...

New boss has made it clear I need to be at the 3pm meeting in south london bang on time, so I will be legging it for the exit just before 2.30....sorry in advance as I would normally love the opportunity for a cocktail chinwag with other glam MNers.

See you tomorrow :)

Tell your boss this is Davina we're talking about, you can't be leaving early. Honestly, some people have no sense of occasion.

I'm so jealous! I was sooo keen to come and am free and in zone 2 but have 4 month old baby who would sleep, bf and coo all the time who's not allowed. Booo. Say hello to Davina from me ladies!

Another one here for whom the sudden warm weather has scuppered wardrobe planning!

I have the whole day off tomorrow. Woo hoo!

I'm going to try and do all my work before 1.30 so I don't have to come back, but it's not looking likely now... dammit.

I will be glamorous and dewy of skin of course, with work boots, jeans, and some top with long sleeves. And snotty of nose as well... oh dear!

I'm also coming casually dressed now - as the dress I was planning to wear, I don't have shoes to go with. Was going to wear my biker boots, but they will be just a tad hot!

I have no nice hot weather things, and I will be on a train all morning so will look like hell anyway. Am now really regretting not putting more effort into losing enough weight to get back into one of my pretty summer dresses.

Well at least if it's hot, I can wear something floaty, which will disguise my middle age spread/womanly tummy. (Recently got offered a seat on the tube as this guy thought I was expecting - is that the nicest thing you could possibly say to a woman of 54!? SmileHmm). I'm sprucing up my dewy skin and looking forward to meeting the rest of you!

I tweeted my wardrobe dilemma and got a reply from Davina:

@TheRealBIWI I'm having one too about meeting you! Lols! Us girls eh?

But you just know she will look fabulous whatever she wears

A lovely afternoon and Davina is so nice, really down to earth. Great to meet some fellow Mnetters and thanks to BIW for reminding me to get off the tube at Waterloo as I was so busy gassing!!! Oh and Matthew McConnighey (sp) was in the building too!!!
