So, Ladies . . .

[Buenchico]

. . . which one will you be wearing to the next village hall tea dance?

Ladies? Bit sexist that, Chris ;-)

[Hazlinny]

You doing an Abbey, Chris?

[Buenchico]

I couldn't suggest that the guys here might wear ball gowns, Zacs, as I understand that Sunny Dave isn't quite ready to come out yet ;-)

It's when I start linking to Asda and Asos, Haxlinny, that you'll work out that Abbey and I are really one and the same person ;-)

'Ball gowns' on men.

The mind fairly boggles.

[1581960]

I would think that all the AB ladies could wear a better face than those models, why aren't they allowed to be happy?

[wolf63]

Next time I wear a posh frock and the zip rebels I can wear it attached to me?? Nope!

Why are the girls so skinny and miserable?

[237SJ]

The girls are selling themselves, not the clothes. That's why they are no smiling.

[237SJ]

Oops I got that the wrong way around :)

[Buenchico]

Kindly keep your boggling to yourself, Douglas ;-)

[That also goes quite some way to answering Wolfie's question too]

[Buenchico]

Your first post, 237SJ, seems to explain why the women to be found around Portman Road football ground after dark don't smile ;-)

[Barsel]

I wonder if some of those girls feel as stupid as they look.

[douglas9401]

Just occurred to me that ball gowns for men could be made of sack-cloth.

[Buenchico]

They probably just think about how much they're getting paid to look stupid, Barsel.

[Buenchico]

Somehow, I don't think that your range of underwear for men is going to be a great success, Douglas ;-)

[1581960]

Doesn't impress me one bit Buenchico, if I saw a model enjoying what she was wearing I would pay much more attention to it.

[douglas9401]

A genitalman would never complain.

[Mozz71]

Is a male ball gown like a posh willy warmer?

[wolf63]

Dougas, you could design sack-cloth undies. You can change your surname to Ichibaws!

[douglas9401]

I'd have to start from scratch though. Branded as Claude maybe?

[Arksided]

Non of those frocks would not only fit me but not suit me either. I would however be happy to put a smile on the blondie and have her smiling but she couldn't afford me.
