Oh they're darling @ChishiyaBat, I'm so sorry about Morgana, losing fury or feathered friends is the worst 💔

They're a gorgeous bunch 😍

ChishiyaBat · 14/07/2024 20:46

Thank you @Lwrenn 💙she was a beautiful little soul. We got her&Remiel out of a house where they were shoved in the corner with cats&dogs all around them, bo attention, they were terrified of everything, it was so sad. I have 6 altogether. 4 parrotlets, Castiel&Crowley(rescues), Lillith&Gabriel and now 2 budgies again Skadi&Remiel, i'd have a whole house full if I could I love my feathered friends🦜🦜🦜. They are out of the cage for most of the day and I love them flying around&sitting on my shoulder or knee.

I was going to get the trousers, but one of my rescue budgies Morgana suddenly collapsed and then died in my hands almost 3 weeks ago, her brother Remiel has been a bit lonely since so instead of the trousers I got a 10 week old grey budgie instead, this is Skadi💙. The green one is one of my 4 parrotlets Lillith, the blue&white budgie is Remiel and that beautiful little grey&black budgie is Skadi. Much better than trousers😁. Edit because I missed out little cloudy sky Gabriel at the bottom

Edited

Aww I'm sorry to hear that 😪 Our rabbit - Denzel died in my arms. It was a surreal experience. They are adorable, I love birds. I had many budgies growing up and my dad had a hawk. He was amazing.

Dollyparot200 · 15/07/2024 08:19

@ChishiyaBat Aww so sorry

ChishiyaBat · 15/07/2024 10:06

Thank you @Dollyparot200 ❤️
I'm sorry about Denzel @Soccermumamir it's such a sad thing to be a pet owner, but also an honour. Birds are such great creatures, they have wonderful personalities. They also have style&beauty😁.

Just sharing Saturdays outfit. My husband and I had a trip away booked but had to postpone due to illness so we had a wee afternoon out. One of my favourite Hellbunny dresses. I had a frankenstein Zip up hoody, and a leather jacket to cover.

Second photo is my belt collection - which I had absolutely no idea I had. I sort of pulled them all together, did some organising so they are now neatly stored on two trouser hangers ( the photo is a good reference to look at) . Plus they all fit me which is amazing. 😂

🎶 A plus size belt, these days is hard to find. So please be gentle with this belt of mine 🎶.

Plus, someone has given me a bag of belts to go through which started this whole bloody thing. It's on the to do list.

I hope you had a nice afternoon @TruthThatsHardAsSteel Oooh look at all the belts I love them❤️. Also love the dress❤️.
I'm after the hell bunny casino print dress, I own one, wore it to warped tour a few years back, but it's too small now. I can only find it in a M on vinted and nothing on ebay which is annoying.

TruthThatsHardAsSteel · 15/07/2024 19:08

Thank you that's sweet! There's a few could be described as casino dress. Not this one? In large

If you send me/post up a pic I can keep an eye for you.

Thank you❤️It is that one, but when you look at the pics the size tag is medium, no idea why she's listed it is large, I have it in an L now and it just about fits, but the zip won't go all the way up😭.

This is actually really common in vinted. I never buy unless I see the label (or double check with the seller). But that's great now I know it's the right one I can keep an eye out for you (and in the right size!)

Is there much extra material inside where it could be let out?

Don't know if you're on Facebook, someone might have a larger size to swap. I'm not on Facebook so I've no idea 😂

@LLWRENN thank you 💕. My hair needs cut badly, it grows outward and I need the weight taken off it!

ChishiyaBat · 15/07/2024 20:43

No it's a stretch material and the seams are really small, I need an xl, thank you so much❤️. I look every few days, but nothing ever comes up. No I don't have facebook, but my daughter does i'll get her to have a look.
It looks lovely though❤️My son has hair that grows out too, it's a challenge, I cut it for him yesterday before he went to Spain to stay with my Mam, he loves having a hair stylist for a mother😂.

Awwww he's lucky!!! My husband helps me do my roots which are well overdue.

I just read about your birdies too , I'm so sorry. Birdies are much better than trousers

You can set an alert on ebay too. Get your daughter to help, or I'm happy to send you instructions. Do a a few,this is how I would do it.

Husbands are good for roots and the back, mine got really good over the years😂. Thank you @TruthThatsHardAsSteel ❤️they really are better than trousers, but I am at birb capacity now, so maybe next month i'll get the trousers😂.
That's a great idea thank you❤️I only found out what the print was called by typing in hell bunny playing cards, it's not even an old print, it's from 2013 according to google. I'm going to go and look at mine now&maybe try it on😂.

ChishiyaBat · 15/07/2024 21:26

I just tried it on&it fits! I still want another in xl though, It's my favourite dress, I look at it all the time😂. Now I just need somewhere to wear it.

@ChishiyaBat thank you ☺️ I did and the vicar’s wife had made us all goodie bags with some treats and the food was lovely too

Hecatoncheires · 16/07/2024 23:33

@ChishiyaBat I’m sorry to hear about Morgana. When my DH was a wee boys he used to keep budgies and racing pigeons and he had a parakeet called Whoopsie that flew away and for some reason was in the local paper.

@TruthThatsHardAsSteel You totally rock! I love your style!

I was at a wedding recently and wore a gorgeous orange-toned red not-quite-but-nearly maxi dress from Phase 8. I looked huge (courtesy of my massive 38L bosom) but felt bloody great! If I say so myself, the colour was fabulous on me. The material was gorgeous and the long skirt swished like a dream. A few people complimented it. There were a few plus-size ladies there, all wearing beautiful dresses of all styles and I admired every single one. I even wore heels! Wedge heels, but that still counts. Changed into my most beloved FitFlops for the dancing. Though it’s hard to ceilidh in flip flops! It was a really happy day.

Hecatoncheires · 16/07/2024 23:38

@Evenstar Your dress is lovely, the colours are gorgeous.

@ChishiyaBat I’m not a creepy stalker, honest! Had to nip back to admire your casino dress. Can’t believe you’re in your 40s.

ChishiyaBat · 17/07/2024 10:46

That sounds delightful @Evenstar .

Thank you @Hecatoncheires ❤️ did whoopsie come back? There was a macaw loose aroumd here yestetday, but he was safely rescued.
Ooh that dress sounds amazing, I bet you looked fabulous! Wedges totally count as heels! I am a platform girl, couldn't ever wear heels even when I was young, but platforms make me taller and are comfy as hell, I can even run and dance in my biggest ones😁.
Thank you again, it's all angles😂. No I am lucky that I have great skin, my nan looked in her late 60s early 70s when she was in her early 80s. I also don't care about dressing for my age, I wear what I like and I honestly think it makes a difference. I am sure it will all come crashing down when I hit menopause though.
