A Crepey is not just for Christmas...

[oldqueencrepey]

It had to be done.
Phew that feels better.
Over here crepeys. All very welcome (but only if you're crepey).

yes my turkey chin/neck has only arrived as I've lost weight. It's hard to choose between the 2 really - turkey or double chin?! (I appreciate I'm really selling myself on this thread so far - a turkey necked, huge bazoombered Bent look alike).

So here you are. Hello new crepeys!

Were we being discussed somewhere?? In complimentary tones, I hope.

Ruby, you have fabulous hair, although I imagine it would look just as good shorter. How grey would you be if you left it to nature? I don't worry too much about the grey bits, but they are mainly on the top/back of my hair, so I never see them.

you'll fit right in with that look scaredy.

Just spotted the "what is a crepey" thread.

Hilarious mass influx of crepeys, to the total bewilderment of everyone else on the thread.

Had a funny RL mirrors MN moment today. Convo at school gate went thusly:

me: "Oooh, did you lot know that M&S do pnb ice cream? And toffee popcorn ice cream? And it's on offer at the moment."

Drinking chums 1&2: "Yum. On offer? Must go shopping now."

Drinking chum 3: "Noooo, do not mention such things. I am on my fast day."

((And yes, I realise I probably should get out more if I am this excited about ice cream))

am thrilled to have spread the joy that is pb icecream.... food of the god(esse)s. "Is there a link between my love of icecream and my likeness to bent?" Shall start a thread in chat.

Stropps :) :) that s sooo funny...
My boss (a bloke) and I are doing the fast thing and i said we needed to ensure we didn't coincide (one of us needs not to be grumpy) 'I'm never grumpy' he snapped 'fast day?' I smiled sweetly :) well the git gets 100 more calories than I do!!
Which reminds me, best gird my loins for tomorrow......

Hey BD! Me too. I'm thinking of toughing it out until dinner. I hated going to bed so hungry on Monday, and lots of the benefits seem to come from having as long as poss without food. So I'm already wondering what a 500 cal dinner might look like!

Hi Herbs, I couldn't do that! I will have small lunch and small dinner -salad here I come! I find eating with chopsticks helps - slows me down :) and I drink white tea (no milk needed) so don't have to worry about that. I have found I am more conscious of not eating for the sake of eating which is a good thing.
No idea if I have lost any weight though.. (I dont weigh myself, tend to go on fit of clothes instead...)

Must check freezers in M & S at Levallois for PNB ice cream.

The only thing to be done with a turkey wattle is to put on weight so that it fills out and becomes a double chin. Neither appealling, I know.

Happy Birthday Strops, and welcome new Hags!

MrsS any news on job?

Happy Birthday Stropps!!

No news. Must book train and hotel for next interview.

That's rubbish - did they say it would take so long!!

I am de-lurking to say hello/join as I have been following this tread for ages and I mean ages.

I am 45 with a nearly 11 yr ds and I am in denial about any double chin as my weight as always been fairly constant, however my face these days is a constant shade of grey, no matter what light reflector shite I put on it!

I am just having a beer and then off to hoist DS out of my bed before i get in it, as for some reason he was tossing & turning in his own bed but fell asleep immediately when he got into mine.

I enjoy all your posts, you come across all so witty & interesting, hope I don't let the side down!

Welcome Redfox!

And Happy Birthday Strops, my Almost Twin.

Blackduck - I expect they are compiling feedback on just how crap I was...

Happy Birthday, Strops!

By the way, while you are in M&S loading your trolleys with PB ice cream make sure you pick up a jar of Salted Caramel Sauce. It's in the grocery section.

Honestly, it's To Die For.

And hellooooo Redfox!

Hello Redfox!
MrsS don't believe that - I reckon every time that guy comes to write up his notes he cracks up laughing at your intended humour again, forgets what he is doing and goes off to have a beer and tell his mates :)

Okay Herbs and I would kindly request that you stop all talk of Peanut Butter ice cream and salted caramel sauce until this time tomorrow - we thank you.

can I say a proper hello too? I didn't see the other thread, but have also lurked from time to time. I remember some of you from years back I think when I was someone else.

I'm 42 and want to embrace my crepeyness, albeit while wearing a stylishly tied scarf!

I'm also fasting today - after failing miserably on any other day this week (why did I decide to make flapjacks yesterday?).

Scarcedy - you think you we're someone else?! Definitely a crepey signal! Who were you?
Oh hello by the way! And happy fasting.

Ahh that post went to pot - damn phone!

Gah. Hungry already. Must be the vast dinner I had lady night in preparation for today's deprivation!

Welcome our new woodland creatures - fox and squirrel. I shall endeavour to maintain standards of wit and repartee.

Hello newbies and happy birthday Stropps.

Luckily I am not tempted by PNB ice cream, in fact I could do a PNB ice cream day and eat less than 500 calories.

Ruby, you could always confuse your hair by having some blonder highlights, so the grey is just an extreme highlight against the subtle shades of the ones put in by the hairdresser....

My dd1 has just had her hair cut short. She's only 15 and I swear there isn't another girl at her school with less than four foot hair. She's creating her own style at the moment and its going really well - I'm proud of her.

It's raining like its never rained before here (which clearly it has!)

Happy Birthday Stropps

Luckily nor am I am tempted by PNB icecream, but on a 500cal day, I think I would snarf the lot

Hi to the newbies too!

Ruby, I reckon some sort of just touching your shoulders hair-do? Can't advise on colour as I've never had it done, but silver grey can look stunning - it's that dull grey that is so uninspiring if it's all over!

Go Beachys DD! My DD is following the crowd and continues to grow her hair!
