The ghostwatch screening is going to be hilarious with nobody watching the screen but eyeing everybody else suspiciously.

I made a Sally doll - I know, I'm sad, I plead a need to change my mind, and also terminal boredom, OK? - which will be hanging from my bag - a denim affair with a manga-like piccie on it. And I'll probably be randomly bursting into tears. So now you can all avoid me. :D
 
I made a badge of my ferret and put it in the wash. I am a dunce.

The badge.

Sigh... we are the most disorganised people on the planet, no wonder there are so few Forteans, never organised enough for 2 to meet-up and mate, to produce new litters.

Are we going to have to mate as well! A bit late to tell me coz my viagra shipment from Ethelred B V industries hasn't turned up yet.

On the other hand, Blues, if you do have a spare miniskirt and g string.....:eek!!!!:

I'm glad I'm not the only one! Thing is, it's a daily happening for me. Picking all those clothes up again seems like such a waste of time when I know they're going to be all over the bed and floor again within 8 hours!

Someone will have to come up with a better invention than a wardrobe and coathangers....

Hey Vampirus :laughing: ,

I am far better than I was (coz I've been trained now-don't like to keep my friends waiting!) so SOMETIMES, if I really try, I can get completely ready within 20 mins.
Really depends where a person is goin' and how much effort u feel like putting into your appearance.

Yeah, maybe someone can invent a 'i-can't-decide'what-2wear-2nite' overcomer-device-thingey?

Sally- don't worry about the tears, a few weeks back, on a couple of occasions, my face started leaking' whilst I was at work, [most embarrassing] and I find it sooooooooo hard to stop crying once I've started...I have very good friends at work and one who I'm really close to, helped me no end over a lunch hour! u know who u are, poss reading this thread too, so, THANKX :kiss: xxxx !! !!

(My eyes go all red, and my nose and lips go red as a beetroot-How attractive?-NOT! And the tissues are never enough and disintegrate in small fibres all over your face)

And another time I was going out for a meal with friends, they knew what was wrong so it was fine, but I felt everyone else in the restaurant would think I was on drugs, and it looked like I had no sleep for 3 weeks !!

BUT people at UNCON will understand. It happens to us all from time to time. Natural!! - Things can only get better!

BTW

I look like that great American military man, Colonel Sanders
 
Right! On the basis of this thread I now refuse to wear black tomorrow.
And you'll recognise me because, if you see a man who is having to fight off the women because he's such a gorgeous hunk, I'll be the bloke standing next to him looking jealous and disgruntled.

now I've just got to find something in my wardrobe that isn't black...
 
I will be the man standing next to Mr. Veidt.

BTW What's the opposite of disgruntled? Gruntled??

I can be ready in 20 minutes too - as long as whoever I'm meeting doesn't mind being seen with something that looks like a refugee from an explosion in a Help The Aged shop who also visited a wig reject bin on the way out.

That's why summer is good .... I can go out in large sunglasses and a hat and no-one knows who I am! That does make me look rather like a blind mushroom, but anonymous embarrassment is better than personal ridicule!
 
Well, to all you lucky buggers going to the Uncon - have a great time.

Enjoy the Scarsdale - it is a great pub. If you don't like it - you don't like pubs.

:_pished:

If its anywhere near as good as last year - you're in for a good time.

That is a rough guess as I dunno exactly what I'll wear yet? - Us ladies tend to decide what to wear at the last minute after throwing everything out of the wardrobe all over the room!

Well think yourself lucky. I had several things in mind to wear, and was going to try them all on to see which made me look least fat. They were all in the ironing. So my mother in law came over while I was at work and took all the ironing away to her house. :hmph: I may have to wear a binliner (not for the first time).

Well at least you'll be easy to spot, beak!

I'll try not to look too shifty by scouting the room for you lot during "Ghostwatch", but if anyone thinks I might be me, do come up and say hello.

Otherwise see you in the boozer.

Oh, and just to let you know, I've given up alchohol (as of last Tuesday morn) for the rest of the calendar year! So I'll be the person propping up the bar with my diet coke in hand.

Vampirus : Aahh, don't put yourself down!!- I bet you have a unique style all of your own, and by that, before u say anything, I mean, I bet you look great!

After all, u should be able to wear exactly what u want, who is to say what is right and what is wrong?
Clothing shows individuality and what is one person's 'good' taste may not be another's, but neither are wrong/bad!

Somebody I know went to an interview in a suit but in sandals and socks. (I know it is not your usual dress code for an interview-and yes he got the job)
Far pout man - not the sort of thing I'd do, but, I admire his guts ??? He even wears sandals in the snow!! :)


Beakboo So my mother in law came over while I was at work and took all the ironing away to her house. :hmph: I may have to wear a binliner (not for the first time). [/quote]


Aah Beakboo, u'd prob be fine showing up like that! I would imagin, you'd fit in really well with the rest of the Uncon shower! - careful the liner doesn't get caught up in the tube/car doors though!
Also, it might not keep ya very warm ??..
hmmmmm....(wear 5!) one for the main torso, twist another into a scarf, another for a belt. two more for leg warmers, sorted!!

At least you'd look very 'goth' !

P.S. But seriously, I hope she gets your nice ironed outfits back to you in time!:)

Note to Beak: Don't forget to send me copies of all the photos, particularly any involving jacuzzi activities. It's for a paper I'm writing on "Communal Bathing Habits of the Online Fortean Community". That sounded convincing.
 
I want to know how and where that lot got so much drink. :mad: We wandered around Kensington for some time looking for somewhere to take us in and ply us with booze, but in the end I only had a pint and a half of bitter and a bag of chips.
Our hotel was fantastic by the way :p And the luxery buffet breakfast. We even had two lovebirds in the breakfast room.
 
Show-off!!!! The high-light of my morning was discovering a cockroach trap in the shower room (honest!!!!!).
 
Yes, I've never seen so many white people in black clothes.
 
Re: Right!
