cocolepew · 16/05/2010 18:04

btw, don't love them in the black, they are gross in the black.

Su, that was my thought re the 2nd bag. Good shape, iffy colour.

SuSylvester · 16/05/2010 18:05

mamag please refer me onto others on fb

at turn thread took last night, glad I wasn't on here, god knows waht I'd have said

dinkystinky · 16/05/2010 19:41

Hope you find a nice puppy Coco. Try not to eat it or mate with it (you gay werewolf you) Glad you had a fab time in Dublin.

Have been v zone like today - up at 4 with DS2 (teething like a trooper), 2 WW yogs for breakfast, lots of tea and water, lunch at our neighbours (who we're doing joint building work with later this year to get round crazy planning restrictions) - some roast lamb, one roast pot, lots of asparagus and some butternut squash (DS2 kindly obliged by eating the rest of my peas, the cauliflower cheese, and the rest of the potatoes - had to fight him for the blardy asparagus) and tiny bowl of apple crumble with one tiny scoop of icecream. And a couple of small glasses of red wine. Steadfastly refused the choc banana muffins DH baked to take over. Not sure what dinner will be - either soup or a stirfry I guess.

Fairhaired - I hate cameras. The angle and the lighting is everything. Bet you looked lovely in real life at your ball.

dinkystinky · 16/05/2010 19:59

Where is everybody? Having a mad party with cardis and handbags in Bobbie's skip?

bobbiewickham · 16/05/2010 20:02

I'm here, dinky!

Just making my dinner - pasta with chezza toms, rocket leaves, prawns, pine nuts, a drizzle of olive oil and a soupcon of parmesan.

Not massively zonelike, but yum!

You've done well today - I honestly don't know how you resisted the muffins!

You in the zone, girl!!

dinkystinky · 16/05/2010 20:04

That sounds v yummy Bobs. Sounds like the hangover/toast craving phase has passed!

Did anyone else think Ashes to Ashes about the jacked Su linked to earlier on?

bobbiewickham · 16/05/2010 20:09

It is. Am needing massive carb fest today.

I liked the jacket, but it wouldn't suit me. Need to look like Keeley Hawes to pull that one off, I feel.

Undertone · 16/05/2010 20:45

What page of the thread is the jacket on, dinky?

Been productive today - went for a ONE HOUR FIFTEEN MINUTE run with significant amounts of walking, averaging 145 heart beats per minute - which is a little high to be in the fat-burning zone (120-140), but I must have burned a good 600 calories. Sainsbury's shop for the week has only just been delivered as well, so no chance to sit and biff as a 'reward'.

Also made a shirt dress kind of like the Lauren dress from Hobbs, but with a fuller skirt and a wrap-front fastening in dark brown linen. The linen was £4 a metre from Brixton.

Undertone 1 - Overpriced Hobbs: 0.

I also bought some lovely swooshy dark beige fabric with white polka-dots. Not sure what to make of it. A little tea dress would be best, but I'm a good six months away at least from wanting to get my arms out in public...

dinkystinky · 16/05/2010 21:04

Undertone its Su's link (big one to M&S jacket) a couple of pages back - described shortly after by TMAM as Mutton dressed as...

Am in awe at your dress making abilities. One of my mates from uni was an absolute whizz with a sewing machine and ended up making another mates wedding dress. Was amazing!

FairhairedandFrustrated · 16/05/2010 23:14

I'm going to try & upload a pic of me at ball. Might fuck it up though.

Will just leave it on for a wee while.
