Just about acceptable for combats with blinding white tshirt/top but about the upper half. Bleeurgghh.

AI therefore BU (did you get that? Twas an AIBU by stealth) to burn my dh's minging khaki t shirt and to finally understand why my sister told me that i too was a minger when pg and particulalry attached to hideous sort of khaki aertex shirt?

Fashion faux pas allowed when pg.

Par for the course.

I had an all-over khaki outfit when having ds2. Looked like a fat sergeant major.

I was genuinely perplexed when my sister said 'Please stop wearing that vile shirt.'

Badge, do you have yeux the colour of slurry then? Far out, lady.

Lucky to have sis like that.

I imagine there were many secret smirkers in my life back then, letting me go about like Private Bloody Benjamin.

Bastards.

Still, we all have those sartorial lows.
(I still wince at memeory of jumpsuit that did in fact look like a cross between a forensic boilersuit and a chemistry overall.)

I seem to remember wearing leather slip on loafers with that particular ensemble.

Was twenty fucking four. Twenty four!!!!

There's a reason Americans pronounce it 'cacky'

MrsBadger · 14/01/2010 16:31

not slurry but 'pondscum', according to one especially eloquent ex

MissWooWoo · 14/01/2010 16:35

combats in any colour aren't a great look really
