Now if she had Simon we would have reached a conclusion a page back surely?

Now... do you sugar or wax dear....


I can't answer your sugaring questions I'm afraid Brendan... but I think it's similar to waxing, so yes probably.


I used to use parcel tape in my teens .... I was terribly thrifty back then.

yes sugaring is essentially the same as waxing - only meant to be less painful - I haven't found it so. used by the ancient egyptians I believe, they were a smooth skinned bunch, way ahead of their time (got to be a better than a strigil for avoiding ingrowing hairs)


essentially it's like caramel, only I wouldn't recommend eating it - especially not after it's been used once

I think the leggings are a no no, they rarely look good on anyone.

Shouldn't really wear tights in June unless you really have to and the coloured ones don't really work either unless your under 25. As for the knee high socks again 21 and under.

BB, coming from Liverpool (very much like Newcastle in the fashion stakes) I know all the girls will be bare legged wearing little else and while you are trying to avoid that look, I think the best thing would be to build up your false tan. Go for the natural look of course, add your vintage strappy shoes and away you go.. Go for classy rather than trendy would be my advise

no I categorically can't have this.


Coloured tights are great, and the knee socks are fine worn with attitude. (wear them with bunches and it's just a bit pervy)


BB, I haven't seen you in the flesh, but if the earlier comment about your great sense of personal style is anything to go by, then I think you'll carry them off with aplomb.


Fake tan in Liverpool just runs the risk of looking a little, well, WAGish. I went for a night out in Manchester recently and there was so much fake tan and over-straightened hair that I thought I'd wandered onto the set of Hollyoaks

Okay, a confession, years ago I made the big mistake of letting my then girlfrend (a scouser for the record) talk me in to letting her "sugar" me before we went away on holiday. Basically you spread this thick goo on, which in itself bloody hurts, then put a cloth strip over it and pull off quickly.


IT F**KING HURTS!!!!!!!! Don't do it.


Since then I have worn my body hair and beer belly with pride... Bloody scousers! (6)

Ooooh - I had a lovely weekend, thank you very much and did East Dulwich proud.


But yes, it was a dilemma. I bought knee high socks as advised ... - but I got them home and my poor little legs were so short that really there were no knees to be seen and they looked decidedly odd with the silk dress. Agggghhhh!


So then I moved onto fake tan...Neutrogena nourishing glow...and got myself a lovely pedicure. Decision made. Or so I thought...


For as I sat on the train it started to rain and once I hit the North the bitter wind made me breathe a sigh of relief that nestled in my baggage was a pair of black 40 denier tights....Hoorah, for the bleak North since if I'm honest that was my favourite option.


And goodness, let me tell you... I stood a mile out from the forty-something wannbee wags I encountered that night. Darlings - I felt decidedly London in my attire and very pleased with myself too...fake tan, botox, and a distinct smell of desperation were found by Bellenden Belle on Eccleshal Road on Friday night. Indeed I am convinced I saw someone trying to pull a Chuckle Brother..


Did I get praised for my magnificent effort? Not exactly but I like to believe that sometimes silence is golden!

Dashing?! The man appears to have a carpet under his shirt. And what's with the Clark's shoes? Where are his jungle boots and pith helmet? This is slap-dash at best.


Bloody colonials. Honestly, you leave them to run a country and look how they end up dressing.

Maybe RosieH is talking about the devil-may-care I'll-be-coming-back-for-you-later-darling glint in the man's eye?


Yeah, those colonials. Don't wear nearly enough tweed, do they d_c?


The short suit is a hideous embarrassment, I'm not even sure I like the ones that they started selling for women a couple of years ago.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
