Threading, plucking or waxing ?

Ummm, well apparently the friend thought that Anne was a common name and not befitting to her status (goodness knows what that was) Maeve was a lovely woman which is more than I can say for her snooty friend. She was nicknamed Mrs Bucket after a while. Poor Maeve was also banned to an empty 'cell' for snoring and because she had a streaming cold, AND she had lent the 'friend' her knickers!!!

Hmmm - as we say in my native Yorkshire, there's nowt as queer as folk!

When I was a young woman I had really hairy legs. I was a brunette and my legs were covered with almost black hairs.

From the age of about 30 to 35 I plucked every hair out. It took years but it was so worth it and 95 per cent of them never came back.

When I was about 19 I set about my thick dark eyebrows and made them look like Twiggy's at the time - never regretted it.

Had several disasters with hair dye and bleach, including green hair that had to be reprotenised.

I'm allergic to hair dye now (and a lot of other things) so my hair is all grey) I miss messing about with my hair as my mother used to put it. I was a red head for awhile, had blonde streaks, a curly perm, you name it I tried it.

Happy days.

Crumbs Falconbird tweezering your legs deserves a medal!
I bought one of those epilator things, first few times I nearly gave up but now only need to use every couple of weeks.
Apparently you can use it on your upper lip......one attempt and never again, eye watering wasn't the phrase, absolutely excruciating! Would be a good instrument of torture.... !
