You won't get that for a fiver Dry

OneLittleLady · 24/11/2013 22:28

The nerve of it! Dp is freshly back from a weekend in London where he snuck in some xmas shopping and there are gifts waiting for me, hidden somewhere in this flat! He won't even give me clues about what they are! I'm outraged that he won't give me clues Grin

Drywhiteplease · 24/11/2013 22:36

So easy to get those zeros muddled up right dry? Grin
So glad I kept the scarf - so cosy Thanks
Am eating Toblerone (which incidentally autocorrects as gobbler one) and drinking water to counteract the damage I'm doing.

BrandyAlexander · 24/11/2013 22:43

Damn I realise one of my posts got lost! I am in a noticer of boobs because I am 28E but short waisted so my boobs feel like they take up half my torso! It's a challenge to dress flatteringly without drawing attention to them so I am always watching how other women do it! I am fairly sure the lurkers are thinking "yup, still a perv!"

Anni, I know I am boobs lingerie obsessed but £3k??!!!!Grin dh would have a heart attack!

Annianni · 24/11/2013 22:43

I'd rather put that towards a new car :o

It's the Bordelle range at Selfridges.
Can't link, in bed.

Oh that !!!!! I've got one for each day of the week ladiesGrin

Hope you enjoyed your gobbler one Shop....love the flushing away with water idea.

Went to my girlfriend's home for lunch yesterday. She's in a barn conversion (love them....but not the rural location, I'd like an urban barn!) a huge project that is 3/4 finished. Have come home inspired .......fab bathrooms and fabric/paper combos. Uses a lot of harlequin fabrics and wallpaper. Slate flooring throughout the downstairs, a stretch of bi fold doors with 10 panels, wood burners....just lovely. She knows how to mix contemporary and classic really well.

Morning!

What a lot of boob chat last night. I always miss the good stuff because of the time difference.

I used to have lovely small boobs (not boasting but about the only part of my body I have ever been really happy with) pre DC and now I just have small boobs.

I don't mind too much as they still look ok with a bra on. Wink

dry DM has that watch and it is lovely IRL. I haven't seen her wear it in a while so maybe she wouldn't mind 'lending' it to me. Grin

That corset it really horrible and the name of the brand would put me off as well. It's all 'look at us being naughty using a Frenchified name for brothel'. Ugh!

BrandyAlexander · 25/11/2013 09:29

Morning! Oh boy was I unwell last night.Sad seriously bad tummy ache. It's the second time in about 4 weeks. I am working from home today but couldn't manage the school run and still in bed. Unfortunately I don't have time to be sick as I am chairing a conference in 2 days and meant to be preparing for that. Thinking of toast.

The corset talk has reminded me that I have a couple in the lingerie drawer that probably haven't made an appearance post dc. I liked them in winter because they kept me warm. Dh liked them for other reasons.Wink

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 09:49

Hope you feel better soon Novice Thanks

I'm waiting on packages to start arriving and still hunting for a mens towelling dressing gown, they are seemingly like gold dust! Everything I look at is bloody fleece and DP won't wear it!

shopafrolic · 25/11/2013 10:16

for One

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 10:17

You're a star Shop! There's a JL in the next city over so I can go later this week, it's not a long journey on the train and it'll be nice to go home for a little while

MarshaBrady · 25/11/2013 10:19

Morning. Hope you feel better soon Novice, horrible to feel like that.

I don't suppose anyone knows somewhere nice to go out in the Mayfair area?

Need to book something for this week, with some friends.

BrandyAlexander · 25/11/2013 10:24

Oh well done Shop!

One, I got that robe in white for dh for Xmas a few years ago and he loves it. He was really thrilled to get it! Wears well, washes well. A real keeper and I would highly recommend.

I just ventured downstairs in my pjs to get some toast to be met by dh and 2 blokes who are going to be doing CCTV, sonos and internet in the new house. thanks dh.Hmm

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 11:11

Goo to know Novice I've been hunting everywhere for a robe like that to replace the one DP has had for twelve years. Hmm

shopafrolic · 25/11/2013 12:06

Free delivery over £50 One

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 12:08

Even better Shop Grin thanks for finding it for me, it's the one thing I've been going crazy trying to find. I think twelve years is a long enough run for his current one!

santamarianovella · 25/11/2013 12:20

novice I hope you feel better soon Flowers, I had an awful tummy bug, twice in 2 weeks, I wouldn't wish it on my worset enemy.

Is it me or does this corset resembles AP? I would rather get the the original, I kinda like this, too!

marsha are you looking for dinner or drinks? I know a few good places,

one I'm almost done with my Christmas shopping but still can't find anything for dh,!

shop,I had an image this morning ,of us posting or new boobs on MNV Grin

Where are mig and decam ?

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 12:23

Santa I will have new boobs once my new bras arrive, none of my current bras fit properly since I've lost a bit of weight!

LinusDKD · 25/11/2013 13:13

novice I hope you feel better soon. I am feeling slightly better but still not 100%

santa I have the same problem. I have nearly bought all my Christmas presents but have no clue what to buy DH.

one I am with your DP, I hate fleece next to my skin. I can just abide my Hunter fleece socks but I even try and avoid buying fleece for the DC.

And I need new bras as well as my boobs have started shrinking as well. There will be nothing left if I keep losing weight. 5 kilos so far, yay!

OneLittleLady · 25/11/2013 13:14

Well done on the weight loss Linus! Thanks I agree with you, fleece next tot he skin is awful, especially when you get wet

MarshaBrady · 25/11/2013 13:45

Linus well done that's great!

Santa fabulous, drinks I think, thanks!

BrandyAlexander · 25/11/2013 13:53

Thanks everyone. Tim still feels dodgy.

Has everyone got the matches 30% code? If not, feel free to PM me.

I found another coat I liked on matches. It's bleeping sold out in my size.Angry This is beginning to turn into the great Breton quest!
