Hello to all I am going to a ball in March and have spent the last 6 weeks trying to find a floor length evening dress for my height 5ft 2 and for my size (20) without looking like I am wearing a tent or a bridesmaid dress... I have seen some lovely dresses, but really don't want to spend...

I lost my beloved mother in law in March this year, age 61 from emphysema. My mum in law did smoke and was overweight - weighting over 22 stone and being just under 5ft tall. We always thought she would be with us and I'm sure you can imagine our grief and the loss of having someone so...

I don't know whether to cry or be angry..? :badmood: A porter came to deliver some notes to me at work today - as the corridor to my office is key coded - one of my collegues let him though and when he asked for me and my collegue said its the lady in the office at the end - 'Oh' he said -...

Your Brain's Pattern Your mind is a firestorm - full of intensity and drama. Your thoughts may seem scattered to you most of the time... But they often seem strong and passionate to those around you. You are a natural influencer. The thoughts you share are very powerful and persuading.

My daughter has one of these (not dora the explorer) - although it really does look very similar to something I was brought by hubby as a special pressie a few months ago..........;)

Well done to you - what a fantastic feeling!! Like you I'm going down in sizes, but have been passing all my clothes on to a friend of mine (I've kept one pair of really big jeans as a reminder of how big I was - even they were tight at one point!) You should have a go at Ebay - post a link...
