Got an appoint with dressmaker next week Molls- hope she'll come-up with something.. thing is I really love dress and how it wears on me so it will HAFTA be shortened someway!! Nothing else I've looked at compares.

Ye know? Not looking for any sympathy here btw. Just thinking how much I really miss me own Mum or a sister- just to show it to and get opinions from. My Mum used to love seeing any new rags I'd bought- she would eye them up as to whether she could wear them or not!:H

Will try get a pic and e-mail it to yis for yer honest opinions.... only prob is am home alone and couldn't really ask me neighbour to come take a pic of me- tink his girlfriend would keel me!

Was watching ICA Bootcamp- hilarious !
Totally OTT but a laugh - and the Dub won naturally :H

For non-irish :
ICA = Irish Country Women's Association - basically a load of 'ol biddies - stuck in the 50's.
Trying to teach young wans 'stuff'
Funny but one of them said that their generation is most likely the last to be able to take up a hem and that simple sewing will die out - she is prolly right - judging by real DD and now adopted Sweetiepie:H
She put it quite well:
"We are in the departure lounge and you are in arrivals - this talent will go with us - but we're not really to fly out just yet" :H

Ye know what MrsA? No matter what MrA's opinion is (no disrespect intended btw) I think you are a perfect role model of someone embracing a new life without booze. Ye seem to grab each opportunity available to enrich and improve things for yerself. Wish could take a leaf outa yer book.
