chuckle.

she is an odd looking bint and no mistake.

Iota · 16/06/2008 16:30

she had better not marry a man who loves to cook, then

aDad · 16/06/2008 16:33

somebody is marrying her?

or is this theoretical?

MrsTittleMouse · 16/06/2008 16:35

Oooo, is it mean to wish on her a pregnancy with the kind of morning sickness that is only (just) bearable if you eat carbs all day long?

memoo · 16/06/2008 16:36

didn't we all say that thought? add a couple of kids into the equation too and it very quickly all go's to pot

My Dad is very fit and healthy and has always been quite evangelical about cardiovascular fitness etc. My DH was confessing to him recently that he hadn't been for a run recently and he felt really bad about letting himself go. And even my Dad told him that it was madness to expect to be superfit with one crazy child (soon to be two) and that for the next year or so he should just be nice to himself and not beat himself up about it.
When DD2 (due in October) sleeps through the night and I've finished BFing, I am determined that we will get our bodies back though. It'll be interesting to see if I have to eat these words in two year's time.

UnquietDad · 16/06/2008 16:48

Of course she won't "let herself go."

She will hire "help" (as it is known, I believe) to do all the proper work, and occasionally do the odd bit of ostentatious cookery when they have "people" round.

She will also have a full-time employee whose job is to keep her entire body hairless.

when she's been married for 15 years she won't want him to think she's gorgeous, she will want him to make her a cup of tea and remember to clean the toilet after tramlining it.

And after three babies, she will understand why babydoll negligees were invented. Though she may well have more of a predilection for earplugs as a bedroom aid.

I love it when the smug join the dark side. We all went through it; it's great to watch them fall crashing to the floor so we can pick them up like good big sisters.

And then push em down again.

theStallionOfSensibleness · 16/06/2008 16:49

she has the look of a morgue beautician

Ledodgy · 16/06/2008 16:50

She's overrated imo, yes she looks clean and all that but she doesn't look that good.

noddyholder · 16/06/2008 16:51

She puts a royal blue polo neck and a big plastic belt round every dress she wears and looks terrible.Her hair id diy bleach can't believe anyone would listen to her

Ledodgy · 16/06/2008 16:52

see?

welshmum · 16/06/2008 16:54

oooo Willself that is exactly me - even down to the number of ears married and the earplugs. DH must be cleaning the loo too as I never see any poo. Hurrah my marriage is successful!
Still do want DH to think I'm lovely though....

Twinkie1 · 16/06/2008 16:55

Did you see her dressed as old toothy woman last week - she looked a right bint without her make up on - feel sorry for her DH!

Swedes · 16/06/2008 17:06

LOL at he he tells me if I'm not toned. Does she mean vaginally?

Bet she'll be thrilled to be told how untoned she is when she got a toddler and a newborn to haul round Waitrose.

Swedes · 17/06/2008 11:02

I'd like to think she might end up in Lidl looking ten years older than she is. Wearing some cheap, lycra-lite leggings which showed off her untoned bottom a treat.

hf128219 · 17/06/2008 11:05

No excuse to let yourself go. Ever. Plain lazy.

waffletrees · 17/06/2008 12:54

Is there any real point in watching "How to Look 10 Years Younger" anymore? We now all know it invloves roughly 10 grands worth of plastic surgery. We need a new programme called "How to Earn 10 Grand More!"

FWIW - hope she gets horrific stretch marks because nothing will cure them. Then we will make her stand in her bikini whilst everone points and laughs. [Evil cackle]

hatwoman · 17/06/2008 13:06

now that I'm a grown up (it's happened in the last 2 years i reckon, dds are 8 and 6. I'm 37) I've managed to find an equilibrium between now much of a shit I give about my appearance (not much) and how much time I am prepared to spend on it (not much, life's too short). it's marvellous. I'm fitter now than I ever was. I don't feel the need to wear make-up everytime I venture out of the house. I rarely blow dry my hair. I spend more time shopping for books than for clothes.

I suspect that to the casual observer I have let myself go. But I know the truth.

CurrantBun · 20/06/2008 10:26

Personally I don't like Nicky Hambleton-Jones' look. All you see when you look at her is her glasses, which seem to be colour-co-ordinated with every outfit. I used to enjoy 10 Years Younger, but now they just seem to find women who have let themselves go to such an extent that only intensive cosmetic surgery and dental treatment can resurrect them. I really hate the way that regardless of what their teeth are like, they automatically give them veneers. Quite often I think the teeth they end up with look too big for their mouths and really artificial. Slightly crooked, imperfect teeth can be quite endearing - why can't they just do a whitening treatment or something rather than replace every tooth in someone's head?

I got ready for a work event this morning and was up, showered, dressed, made-up and out of the house in 45 minutes, including having breakfast. This would never have happened before I had DS. I have so little time to get ready these days that even when I do have a bit longer I seem to be much quickerthan I used to be!

nancy75 · 20/06/2008 10:29

who needs nicky hambleton jones when we can watch gok!
programmes that make people feel that they are so shit that the only way out is plastic surgery are awful. And as for her dress sense? - no thanks!
