I'm trying to imagine you in a corset. Was it for surgical or aesthetic reasons?

Because you're too polite and well brought up, and (as my 3 yr old said to me this afternoon) I aren't.

I am with Katharine, t-shirt and shorts or long trousers. Until I had childen I wore nothing but that was not very warm in the middle of thenight, particularly with winter babies. Also after 32 years of marriage (today) I frequently wake up to find his nibs has nicked all the covers so unless I want a 2am fight I wera jimjams.

Incidentally Katharine in 1967 or thereaboouts we were able to hae pyjamas at Hertford, I think there is one of Alex's pictures somewhere of them being modelled.

Pyjamas?

Post by Angela Woodford »

I don't remember pyjamas at school! How strange - I should do.

What a fab thought - JR in a corset! A lovely cinched in waistline. A thing of beauty and a boy forever.

Ah, but if I had had school jimjams, I would never have learnt that DR wore nighties :lol: :lol: I would never have had Munch's vision of her in tight buttoned Victorian elegance - my vision was quite different - I saw black satin (or silk) and dreaming of Rudolf Valentino!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Congrats on the 32 years, Mary you are five years behind us so you must have been a child bride!

He forgot last year but has remembered today and is cooking dinner.

I got married on the 22nd August, when I was 22, the next day 23rd August I was 23!! It has always been easy to remember! Poor John had trouble remembering which was which.

Good for Barry to cook for you, the other day I said that I would be late at work and as I had something to do that evening, I asked John to cook - we had fish & chips - NO Not home made!

NIGHT WEAR

Post by Foureyes »

The best ever answer to a question on a lady's nightwear came from the divine Marily Monroe (remember her, chaps?)
She was asked by a male interviewer, who was trying to be clever and upstage this dumb blonde, "Tell me, Miss Monroe, what do you wear in bed?"
She stared at him soulfully, opened her eyes wide and without a smile or hesitation replied, "Chanel Number 5."
End of interview.
:shock:
