I'm not any better at sewing than poetry as it happens.

Anyways, line for Patrick starts behind me.

You'd look lovely in it, and I'm sure it was beautifully made, but just not my taste!

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 16:53

schadey I suspect me and thee are Nurse Phyllis and Millicent Trilby Higgins in our tweedy attire.

Our friend maireas is the classy yet decidedly glamorous Beatrixie. Swathed in shantung, sporting a classy red lip and swishing a natty curled flicky bit.

I will be Phyllis. In my mind’s eye you are very much in the Trilby domain. Smile

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 16:54

And both are swooshing compliments 😘

Maireas · 06/06/2021 16:57

Ha ha!! Not Trixie - maybe Violet Buckle!

SchadenfreudePersonified · 06/06/2021 17:00

I will be Phyllis. In my mind’s eye you are very much in the Trilby domain.

Actually - I AM very much in the Millicent Trilby Higgins domain. I have a passion for hats and am an avid fan of Our Own dear Queen.

(I'm about 12 stones heavier than she is, though)

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 17:00

I love our Violey as well.

Our underpinnings will be the best on Mumsnet. Hurrah!!! 🥳

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 17:03

I’m way bigger than Phyllis and have the same imposing bosom.

Though senza underpinnings of forth bridge dimensions, my bosom is approximately 3 ft lower.

Rafe would be appalled.

DH tried to take an 'arty from below' photo of DS & I last week. I looked like the Queen Mary coming into berth.

Maireas · 06/06/2021 17:25

iklboo Schaden and Sheldon
I should not read your comments while drinking coffee - I've spat it all over the couch!
😂😂😂😂

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 17:30

From below??? Are you mad??!!

I hope you have not got more than one chin ikl

That would be - for me - the equivalent of an arty shot of Jabba. The Hutt one.

Courtesy - mainly - of pizza. The Hut one.

Vanish is your friend.

Other stain removers are available.

Or drink water.

Maireas · 06/06/2021 18:29

The three of you are very naughty, but I like you! ( Said in the voice of Dick Emery's alter ego, Mandy....)

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 18:32

It has been said I LOOK like her!!!

Actually. I don’t.

I’m an Ada. Les Dawson stylee. Word.

Maireas · 06/06/2021 18:33

My son asked me why I've spilt/spat coffee everywhere. I said "blame Auntie Iklboo, Auntie Schaden and Auntie Sheldon!" Grin

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 18:35

Nope. Nowt to do with me 😉

iklboo · 06/06/2021 18:37

@SheldonesqueTheBstard - I have, but it was more my boobs coming into shot like twin zeppelins.

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 18:50

And now I’m reminded on the marvellous joyce grenfell dear iklboo

All together now

‘As stately as a galleon I glide across the floor…’ Grin

I think up until a couple of years ago I was quite Barbara, but since lockdown I’m rather more Chummy…

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 18:55

sunbird. How lovely!!!! 😊

SheldonesqueTheBstard · 06/06/2021 18:57

Chummy is magnificent Wink

NigellaSeed · 09/06/2021 20:15

Good evening queen bees. Is it the final or the semis?

SimonJT · 09/06/2021 20:19

Semis I think, as we still have four contestants, Rafy, Rebecca, Serena and Farie

Maireas · 09/06/2021 20:35

Indeedy! Semi finals.

osbertthesyrianhamster · 09/06/2021 20:38

Serena to win!
