Today is the first day of spring.

[clare]

This spring I be wearing....

lovely new blue top thing from Primark.

What you be wearing?

[fish]

A rose gold suit.

[spymum]

This spring I shall be mostly wearing....

A short baby doll dress, complete with black footless leggings and gold ballet slippers so that I look just like the trendy shopgirls in 'ed' and The Dulwich Trader.

(White van man beware - from behind I will look gorgeously twenty-something, but from the front like an even more raddled Janice Dickinson!)

Raddled - nice word! What does it mean exactly?

[spymum]

BM, think Marianne Faithful or Keith Richards! Or possibly Kate Moss ten years from now! (Miaow!)

[bald marauder]

Haha! Well, on the strength of those examples, it doesn't sound like an entirely bad thing! ;)

[spymum]

I dunno about that; if Keth Richards suddenly jumped out at me in a dark alleyway asking for a light, I'd run for the hills!

Father Time has been most cruel to that man. And the copious amounts of smack were a bad idea. Raddled.

I think I would run for the hills if a teenage boy jumped out from an alleyway and asked for a light quite honestly! I wouldn't really mind if he had teenage skin or a furrowed brow!

[spymum]

True. But more importantly, this spring, what will you be wearing?

[Mark]

I'll be wearing a smile and nothing else

[dulwichmum]

I shall be wearing a super new spotty silk dress - currently in the window of Eclipse on Park Hall Road, some amazing heels from Kate Cuba in Sloane Square, and my new lemon Mulberry Emmy!

[mockney piers]

I'll have no trouble finding you at the footy then mark, not sure i want to now though.

[Huguenot]

I shall be wearing a size-too-small leather jockstrap and a grimace.

Well up to a point ; he still looks in better nick than Brian Jones....B)

[spymum]

Harsh but fair, SimonM, harsh but fair!

So this spring, the girls will be doing their fantasy fashion thing while the guys have come over all exhibitionist, and will be indulging in a spot of male nudity; typical!!

[dulwichmum]

No dear Spymum,

That is really how I will be dressed.

[spymum]

Sounds fab. (makes swift note to update wardobe - and to check ED for any wandering nude males).

C'mon, it's a miracle that Keith Riohards is still ALIVE! After what he's put his body through, I don't think he's in bad shape at all. Compare and contrast with Elvis' final days...

BTW, did you know that apparently Keith Richards changes his blood every year - kind of like a car getting an oil change. Spooky, no?

And one more on the subject of raddled, I think Iggy Pop has weathered exceptionally well - I'm sure there are some women who wouldn't mind him jumping out from a dark alley (admittedly more likely in Camden than ED though)!

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr Bald Marauder,

I could jump out from a dark alley on Ray Winstone or Gary Barlow. I think they both look rather cuddley! I would jump on them, give them a cuddle, and run away...

[mightyroar]

Gary Barlow?! DM have you been on the spritzers again?

[dulwichmum]

Dear Mr Mightyroar,

He just has a sweet face, and a big cuddley body, and is a lovely daddy by all accounts. I think that makes a perfect man! Don't you agree? I am still off alcohol for Lent. It is nearly killing me.

[mightyroar]

I managed 4 days of my Lent dry period. Well done you you beat me, and that woman off the Archers. think how healthy your liver must be.

Still cant forgive Barlow his crimes against music regardless of cuddliness.

[Solo-k]

hello... Sorry for the intrusion by a newbie.

Not sure where you can just say hi, so though I'd say it here.

This Spring I'll mostly be wearing my new dress from Petals.

Anyone else go to their thing on Sat?

[mockney piers]

Hello Solo, no need to apologise and a big hello to you.

Is the k a silent k on Knapoleon? I do hope so.

I went to the Dulwich Hamlets on Saturday and can confirm that Mark came dressed in nothing but a smile. Highly disturbing it was too ;)

[georgia]

Good heavens....

Maybe I should get into football after all...;-)
