The Girly Thread

[oddjobby]

I'd like to smuggle some piranha into one of those tanks for a laugh.

That would be very, very funny!

[Doorstop]

I had heard it was extremely difficult to get a hold of piranha these days (obvious jokes about fingers notwithstanding) after specimens being found near warm water outlets of power stations and the like led to them becoming a nuisance itinerant species.

Checking online this morning shows this not to be the case with plenty of places selling them willy nilly.

Heard tell, many years ago, of a bunch of rugby-playing lads who'd got hold of a few of them and decided they'd make good tank-fellows with the other tropical fish kept at their local pub. Landlord was not amused.

Favourite work trousers now officially too tight

Back on the health wagon it is then!!

Bollocks

[John]

I am pretty sure that bollocks won't be responsible for any perceived tightness in the trousers.

[jodieohdoh]

Thanks for your vote of confidence in my womanhood, John. You're a brick

[Josef]

Feel free to substitute the word of your choice for 'tightness' in John's response.

[HollowHorn]

That goes for the word 'brick' too.

Just noticed yesterday that a bit of dye from my shoe boot things had come off on my big toe.
Must have been the rain we had off and on.

[Dot]

Feel like I'm walking on air.
Got my feet done at the chiropodist today.
It's not that they are sore but like to get the nails properly cut once every so often and she takes away dead
skin. Only problem is my feet are a bit tickly at times so sometimes hard to sit still when people touch them.
She said they were in pretty good shape but that heels a bit dry so I should put some cream on them once in a while.

I'd love to have all that done, but same as you Dot, very tickly feet

I see that both Kate Middleton and Iris Robinson have turned a few heads with their outfits in recent times.

Kate wore a Reiss dress to meet President Obama and the First Lady.
Within minutes of the images being beamed throughout the world the company website crashed.

Iris Robinson bought a dress from Jourdan boutique in Belfast and wore it for the Queen's visit to the
Republic. The shop has been inundated with requests for the gown and such was the demand that the owner has
introduced the 'Iris collection'.
The dress is also available in a shorter version and in other colours.

The chiropodist told me I should use some cream on my feet to prevent getting dry heels etc.
So I got some lotion for feet and legs while out shopping yesterday.
Thought I would try some today after my shower but it smells a little strange and can't make up my mind whether
I like it or not. Maybe it is the mixture of menthol, eucalyptus and whatever else.
Just as well I wear jeans and trousers most of the time as I bought two bottles of the stuff.
If necessary I may donate unopened one to the charity shop and that will be my good deed for another while.

[Dot]

I bought peep toe shoes today along with some sandals.
Don't normally wear that style of shoes but I have a function to go to soon.
Nothing would have matched the outfit I bought earlier in the month so it was now or never.
