Have had lovely few, if a bit exhausting, few days. Olympics at Greenwich was fab. Great great atmosphere. The volunteers were wonderfull and gosh our armed services are lovely. Was wonderfully unstuffy. Soldiers were joking and clearly enjoying the atmosphere. I can remember going through immigration in New York years ago and trying to crack a joke about my terrible passport phoo and just being stonewalled and made to feel really awkward- like I was going to be carried off never to be heard of again. The soldiers at Greenwich, whilst doing a really important security role, seemed to keep their sense of humour and joy at the event. I loved them for it! Sorry for the gush but the whole thing was so quintesentially British from the brass band to the deck chairs to the orderly queues to the sausage sandwiches to some lovely girls from the NE sharing their umbrella with my DD and me when the heaven opened. Everyone was so thrilled to be there. Marvellous. Also. Get this. One of my colleagues was a volunteer. Apparently all the volunteers had a one day training course on how to deal with the public. All about making eye contact, answering questions etc and the course was run by John Lewis!!! As I said it was all so perfectly British!!!
Anyway sorry for gush.
No real style and beauty to report. All the boob talk interesting. Those of you with elephant memories will remember I am having a reduction on 4 th September. Am currently rocking a 34 f/G!!! Have a meeting with my surgeon tomorrow to discuss last details. God it's really happening isnt it!! Am trying to not think about it as I will so be shi**ting it before I am wheeled in!
Was interested about sexism at work chat. I have worked in financial services for last 20 years and the sexism can be awful. When I came back from mat leave with my DD 7 years ago I found my job had effectively disappeared. All my clients etc. I cant say too much but ended up resigning and taking them to court for sex discrimation.
hopefully. Glad Reiss tip off was helpful. Sounds like you have enjoyed your course.
bloss I am loving the sound of your holiday wardrobe. My Dsis is a winter and is a "jewel" winter meaning that the bright fushias etc work really well on her, like you.
Talking of my Dsis the family is on baby watch. She is about to pop with baby 4. My DH and I are on standby to help with their DC. I am on tender hooks. Was very relieved she did not go into labour last night just after I had done my fake tan! It would have been my lovely Dad's birthday today and I know my mum and I are hoping it's tonight. But in case my lovely sis is reading this we don't mind when you pop really. We will be thrilled whenever!!!
Anyway enough from me.
