If you live in warwick - go to Leamingtos sps and go to a department store - can't remember it's name. Get them to do you a light make up.

ask MAC if they have one or chanel or benefit.

my own territory is the size of a postage stamp...i have an uncanny nack of finding myself right next to people i don't want to see and i can guarantee it will include (ex)dp and next friday exh is arriving for 3 weeks too and i don't want him putting his bit in

i am just going for practice really..it just seems complicated once you start..

ZIppi - go for it and enjoy.

Don't give if a half shot.

you will so good about yourself.

Even if he is a tosser, you can turn him down with a smile an dknow you are going to move on to someone else.

You need to get another photo taken once you have sorted your hair maekup bra etc.

yes i think a top and trousers is better...i intend to enjoy myself

that sort of wide necked top might be right or it might be wrong.. i have ok arms.. i actually have muscles no bingo wing stuff..in fact my arms are the best bit

my neck isn't wrinkly

the worst bit is my middle..still another stone to lose
