Amusing style advice from Victoria Coren...

[Trills]

Weight gain is good, because it makes your dresses tight. This is not necessarily classy or flattering, but it means you don't have to iron anything.

Hahahahaha!!! That piece is brilliant. Cheered my day right up, thanks, Trills

I read the whole thing. It really is brilliant. As is the next piece, entitled Wrong Number...........

I've done something similar as pretending to be someone different to cancel a contract - I pretended to be a live dh

She said only he could cancel our sky contract (smugly or I wouldn't have done this) so I sighed and put on my gravelly voice - she said 'I know that's you!'

I said : ' I have no use what you're talking about please go through the security questions'

Which of course I knew the answer to

I did enjoy wishing her a 'nighty night' in my normal voice at the end of the call

That's great

Laurie DH's name could be a man or a woman's name. I pretend to be him ALL THE TIME.. Poor customer service people never challenge me, I suppose I could just be a man with a very high voice.

On reflection, I am clearly a sort of an identity thief.

It's funny, but actually not, that people have to do this sort of thing!!!
