OK - enough of the mystery...ARE YOU GOING TO TELL ME OR AM I GOING TO HAVE TO GOOGLE IT?;-)

Oh...and...err..what age would THAT be then?

Ladymuck, it's a brand of bra that has (possibly had) the slogan 'hello boys'. A wonderbra hoiks boobs up and in giving a high cleavage and I should imagine they are not the most comfortable of bras. They're the ones that don't have any fabric between the elastic on the back creating a sort of stretched X shape on the back and in the 90's they used to be worn with see through tops. My sister had a t-shirt with hello boys written on which I might have to remind her of. Are big boobs still in? I feel bad for saying the stall seemed to only sell wonderbras, i'm sure it doesn't, that's all that caught my eye (and no i didn't buy one!) they probably do pretty undies too.

Good luck FAIRIES AND FLOOZIES I shall take a look at your facebook page.

Thank you SS...they sound horrible

The stall does sell other stuff, not just wonderbras (off the top of my head I remember Freya, but couldn't tell you other brands).

Not all wonderbras are as you describe SS - most are the normal shape (ooh, except a new one I saw in there that can be worn 100 ways) - the x shape is to allow them to be worn with racer back t-shirts etc with less slutty bra strap on show. Basically they're cut to create cleavage - if you already have a decent cleavage, the result can be a little Moll Flanders, but they've given a whole generation of small and lovely breasted women a little more oomph. No bad thing.

You are right, Sophiesofa, large boobs are so passe. I shall cut mine off - a la Amazon - forthwith.

PGC - I'll join you - perhaps we could make it ceremonial in some way
