MI , I feel your pain too - it was horrible when people who had absolutely no connection about the school DS goes to were slagging it off on a public forum a few years ago.

Cremo, I'm betting 36GG. But if it's M&S, probably 40D Grin

The opportunities of the internet, social media and forums have opened the flood gates to people who think their toxic, offensive opinions actually matter Small people with a big soap box. Rise above. Rise above. Flowers to MI and Cremo Yes, the public are are vile beasts. I have interesting memories of a couple of years as a "complaints officer " within the NHS. I had to have my personal details removed for my professional registration registers...'nuff said...

I reckon you might need a smaller back size Crem You are petite!

Auriga One wonders why certain people bother to go to the theatre at all...glad they exited.

Monty and WAF how are secondary school initiates doing? Was there anyone else...

Tilly Has DD sorted out the year 13 angst? Beachy How is DS? Stropps What about DD? Glad she seems to have started the online stuff. CV Has Ds settled back in school after decision angst?

BD is there really no way out of the work situation? Flowers

I agree with Magi about local oestrogen and cystitis, VA, painful sex...I suffered from chronic cystitis, for 2 years. (Not the painful sex, funnily enough although cystitis afterwards...) I eventually got sorted with 3 months on low dose antibiotics and vagifem pessaries (ovestin is too messy...) GGG I'm a different person as a result. I can PM you the consultant I saw if you like. She's brusque and very matter of fact, but she did sort me out!

I am in a whirl of Uni preps and returns of the Prodigal. Spending qual time with DS2 as much as poss. This afternoon we are sitting on comfy Everyman Cinema sofas with food and drink served, to watch a Spanish film...Julieta (Pedro Almodovar).

motherinferior · 08/09/2016 13:48

Cremo, you'll be a 34 at most, more likely a 32. I'm a 30 and am no wisp of a thing.

I will regale you with more details on Sat MrsS and Monty already have the paper trail but I think I am now Cut Off. As are several other people. Am trying not to take this personally but I'm not very good at that.

This person cannot see that we are fed up with seeing our kids' school slagged off. 'But that doesn't make sense. You don't run it' etc etc.

Cremolafoam · 08/09/2016 13:52

Och For The Love Of A Higher Bring:
42c . They hardly make it. Choice of 2 that fit beautifully actually. V wide flabby back girls.disproportionate tits.

Rose , you are so wiseFlowers

I have the most excruciating crush on the Royal Mail delivery chap. I went puce when he clocked me today.BlushBlush

bigTillyMint · 08/09/2016 14:14

Nooooo Cremo! Go to a better measurer! Bravissimo or Rigby and Peller whilst you are in London. Pleeeeaaaassse! There is NO WAY you are only one or two cup sizes bigger than me! And your back is DEFINITELY not bigger than mine and I'm a 34!

bigTillyMint · 08/09/2016 14:17

MI, if it makes you feel better, a friends DD (who I think showed you round years ago) has moved back to the school sixth form from the "prestigious" one she went to last year. It didn't suit her. Your FB "friend" may be best forgotten.

bigTillyMint · 08/09/2016 14:21

Aww RoseSmile

DD has dropped Eco (though she is sad about it and she said the teacher was sad too!) and says she is sorting her work from last year out this afternoon. Hmmm!

DS, meanwhile, has been out to buy ingredients and is going to bake us another super-calorifically delicious cake/tart/somethingShock!

Cremolafoam · 08/09/2016 14:23

Nah BTM, if I measure me according to the bra intervention lady it is right. I am a freak.Grin

Blackduck · 08/09/2016 14:37

MI cut off from what and for what? All sounds very tiresome.

Here ds's schools OFSTED - remember that a week before the end of term - has returned a resounding 'good' knocking on the door of Outstanding - and this all despite the fact the head teacher is universally loathed.....

BeachysSandyFlipFlops · 08/09/2016 14:57

42C, Grin don't think any of us would have got close in the 'guess the bra size' competition, but glad you have two that are super comfy.

Ds is on Day 2, he's there, it's ok, in his words, and we'll wait and see.

First full day with no school and no dh..... Heaven!

Really looking forward to Saturday and have received all info I think. Weather will turn tomorrow, I think, so maybe rain on Saturday just to throw all your outfit decisions up in the air.

I need to go to check out my menopausal fanjo. It's not behaving as it should. Can't say it's overly concerning me as I have quite enough else to be getting on with!

BeachysSandyFlipFlops · 08/09/2016 15:22

All good, BD. Took the stupid one to a fenced field to see if he could remember his Recall training.... He can't Grin

He's lying on the landing, getting in the way!

Blackduck · 08/09/2016 15:24

Well he has nothing between his (lovely) ears :). Dp said he always looks so sad :)

bigTillyMint · 08/09/2016 15:25

Well I have had not spotting for a few days and no problems with dryness Wink - back on my original HRT for nearly a month, please let it continue!

motherinferior · 08/09/2016 15:44

Cremo, I'm sure it's Comfy because it is Too Loose. No way on gawd's earth are you are a 42.

Erstwhile friend has now binned me on FB, along with three (3, iii) others - all good friends of mine - and is alleging she's scared we'll shop her to the school. I am not making this up.

Blackduck · 08/09/2016 15:52

Shop her to the school for what exactly?!? And does she think she's still in the playground?

Lalsy · 08/09/2016 16:49

ffs, MI. People who diss schools publicly are obnoxious because it affects children and their families. not to mention staff. They are usually stupid too, because secondary schools are large and complex organisations which change all the time and have hundreds if not thousands of personalities involved. Summing them up/deducing their inner workings from the teensy weensy fraction you see is stupid, IMO. I have a couple of friends who like to pick over minor school issues (often processes or various paranoia-induced misunderstandings) - ashamed to say I tend to avoid them now as it makes me deranged with boredom.

Crem!! Surely shome mistake. I am a 36FF or thereabouts. Glad you have comfy ones now though.

bigTillyMint · 08/09/2016 16:53

Cremo, you do realise we will all be assessing your boobage on Saturday night now, don't you? Grin

MI, sounds like you have all had a lucky escape!

wordassociationfootball · 08/09/2016 17:11

Am horrified and fascinated MI.

Monty - have been meaning to say, how rotten and sad you dad's MH probs must have been for you.

I am standing up for Crem's boobs rights to be whatever size they like.

Beachy - peace!!!!!

motherinferior · 08/09/2016 18:05

And Stropps - do you want some sauce (fnar)?

Really, it is all quite car-crashy. And the others (that I know of) who have been binned are all really nice. Really nice. One of them shared a house with CV at university. Smile

GiddyGiddyGoat · 08/09/2016 18:17

Another doubter here Crem - I just don't believe it - I'm a 32F - HOW can you be 10" bigger around your ribcage than me?? HOW??

If you have spare time in London get yourself to Rigby and Peller - you don't have to buy anything if you don't want to but they'll see you right. Also, for what it's worth a brand new bra shouldn't feel comfy time. You should feel quite trussed up when you first start to wear it Smile.

MI, step away from the social media shite. They sound ridiculous and hideous. Waste no more time on it and be grateful you're deleted and spared the aggro. All that matters is that you and your girls are happy with school. Sod them.

Beauty have you read my pm to you??

Stropps, are you there? Are you OK??

Happy Fridays to all. So looking forward to seeing lots of you tomorrow.

Lalsy · 08/09/2016 18:45

Yes, to trussed up when new. I suspect I may need to go down a band size. [http://www.bravissimo.com/products/lingerie/sensational-sets/candy-bliss-bra/black/ln173blk/?show=all&criteria=candy+bliss this]] is my new favourite bra - I know you all wanted to see that!

Cremolafoam · 08/09/2016 19:00

Oh no ! It sounds like I will be sallying forth like a Female Gallion with my bosoms, a shelf before me. ( ready for supporting the cocktails, obviously.)
I am all back , I tell you. You just can't notice as the norks themselves are , ahem, dainty. Lololol. Hmm
I am actually mortified now and may have to wear a sou'wester over a yashmak. And a mask disguise.
