there there coco I have my mother's hairstyle, you have your mother's shoes, it was inevitable, its all down hill from here

glass of red anyone?

Themasterandmargaritas · 29/05/2010 21:21

Won't say no dinks thanks, I've had a few bottles already.

dinkystinky · 29/05/2010 21:22

Bloody hell Coco - is your puppy going to wear Manolos too?

I like converse and if I could get away with it, would wear them at work day in and day out. And I have no 6 ft pupils trying to sprint off the premises to subdue. Though occasionally have a few bolshy clients/other parties to corral back into meeting rooms

Cornsilk - it does take about 10 minutes to get the bugger on DS1.

I have my mother's varicous veins. (sp?)

dinkystinky · 29/05/2010 21:25

Cornie - I suspect I'm going to inherit my dad's varicose veins. I appear to have inherited his pre-disposition to a tubby tummy too...

dinkystinky · 29/05/2010 21:26

Not so keen Ducky - cut doesnt look that great though print is ok. Would need to see it on a real person and not pinned onto a model I guess.

cornsilkcottagecheese · 29/05/2010 21:30

Did we get any good bits from our mothers? I'm struggling with that one...

duckyfuzz · 29/05/2010 21:31

yes hols and general summeryness - not that we get any oop 'ere

dinkystinky · 29/05/2010 21:31

I think its the suggestion of elasticated type waist I object to - can either work with you or against.

duckyfuzz · 29/05/2010 21:32

DTs off to my mother for a few days, (she does haev some good qualities!) so will hit the shops on tues, leeds or york?

cornsilkcottagecheese · 29/05/2010 21:32

Yes elasticated waists are always a gamble. I've never had one work on me yet.

duckyfuzz · 29/05/2010 21:33

I agree a bit dinky, hadn't really noticed the waist detil til just now, will try it on and see
