OK I am being sexist, but that Next dress on the front of today's DT really got my day off to a bad start. Fair enough, her pins are pretty good, but a woman of her age does NOT IMO wear a little pink shirt dress suitable for a girl/woman less than half her age several inches above the knee.
Girlish? Yuk!
Say what you like about Michelle Obama or Sam Cam but they knew how to look elegant, whether formally dressed or smart casual.
(Brigitte Macron is another whose determination to look "young" irritates me.There is such a thing as trying TOO hard. )

Gilly's post amused me , I wonder if Corby will gaze at the manhole covers there,

I'm so glad you got that it was a joke Anniebach (I kinda guessed you would) some people just need to "chill their beef " as my son would say.

Couldn't resist the reference to the cold beans straight from the tin. wink

Don't like the brown polyester trousers - must have got them from C---s 5 pairs for a tenner

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 08:21:30

I think they're rather fetching for bullet proof denim Smithysmile

Anniebach Sat 05-Aug-17 08:43:12

I thought the great one would be peddling his was to Venezuela

Smithy Sat 05-Aug-17 08:52:11

Yeah maybe you're right gb!

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 09:06:58

Are we talking about the same "great one"
though Anniebach? hmm

petra Sat 05-Aug-17 09:08:57

Definitely brushed nylon, not a crease to be seen.

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 09:12:04

Now you've just been looking far too hard
petra grin

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 09:12:52

Anniebach Sat 05-Aug-17 09:15:59

Gilly, I am speaking of the one who is going to solve all the problems of this country , everyone employed etc

petra Sat 05-Aug-17 09:23:35

Oh gillybob I nearly had a Tena moment there: screen saver, hilarious.

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 09:36:56

Oh I guessed so Anniebach but the photo I posted of his comrade sex personified really threw me .

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 09:39:22

Why not petra ? DH and I share an office at work . He can have Treesa ( in that dress of course) and I will have sexy Vlad grin

petra Sat 05-Aug-17 11:16:40

I was laughing because I thought you meant the pic of Corbyn on holiday grin

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 11:22:55

Oh come on petra I'm the first to admit I'm a bit daft but a screen saver of JC ??? Really ?

Chewbacca Sat 05-Aug-17 11:37:14

How about this for your festive screen saver gillybob ?

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 11:46:37

Wow chewy what more could the real Santa ever bring me than that?

Can't wait 'till Xmas now grin

petra Sat 05-Aug-17 11:47:51

Sorry gilly
I thought you were going down the funny route, but no, it was the lusty route grin

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 11:50:31

I do like a man with a hand on his rod !

Sorry couldn't help it. Think I might be deprived blush

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 11:52:33

petra I know you're gonna want to blow that up HUGE but I can assure you them pants are stiff utility camouflage !

Ana Sat 05-Aug-17 12:00:44

Looks like he needs two hands to hold up that rod!

Why are his pants stiff?

gillybob Sat 05-Aug-17 12:13:00

Because they're bullet proof Ana why else ? hmm

Ana Sat 05-Aug-17 12:24:28

Well, obviously he's not bothered about a bullet through the heart or jugular! Just protecting his nether regions...hmm
