Shock and Awe

Image
So, now that I am an athlete, I decided the time had come to purchase some serious garb, so headed to a well known sports store to take a look at the Extreme Support Shock Absorber Bra's, in an effort to avoid Charlie Dimmock nipple, even more stretch marks and two black eyes. This made me feel slightly better about the €44 - €57 price tag, the first thing I saw having moved like a Gazelle across the wooden shop floor trying to impress upon the fit young staff that I was totally entitled to be there...as a fellow athlete ! Now, girls of my size are apparently not meant to run as the bras fell a little short of my ribcage size but I decided this would aid in containing the puppies so picked up two models, lacking two inches from my actual measurement. I chose a double clasp back fastening version and a zipped front fastening second choice. I asked the young male attendant if I could try them on, and he hastily advised me that the changing room was at the back, averting his gaze fr...

The Missing Knicker

Image
Regular readers will be aware that I have one ( yes just one) set of expensive underwear, which I have referred to on numerous occasions. A dreadful thing has happened. The knickers, of the expensive bra and knicker set, have gone missing !I am not sure, when this tragic incident occurred, but I do know that a) I was not wearing them at the time they went missing,b) they are not in the knicker drawer and c) GASP is missing them too. You see the expensive underwear was not just a set to make me feel good. I had purchased them a few months after the arrival of son number 2, and they signalled my return to normal life, from big mama to hot mama , from tummy mummy to yummy mummy, from miaow to Rrrrrrrr! Marks and Spencers were abandoned for this purchase, and off I traipsed, childless, one morning to Ooh La La! ( I kid you not) in the local town.

Emergency Bra !

Image
We've had the minimiser, balcony, underwired, push up and wonder and now we have the Emergency Bra ! It's not a joke ! Check out www.ebbra.com and see for yourself. A doctor has invented a bra that can then be used as a facemask in the case of smoke , disease or biological warfare ! The great thing about this actual piece of lingerie is that it is hot ! Bright red hot...the only colour you can get it in at present but we are promised a selection soon. She is working on an emergency shirt for men but personally I would like to see Emergency bright red speedos...they could save my life any day !Apparently you can remove the bra and create the facemask without removing any of your clothing ( I will be discouraging this with the speedos). In an emergency it is of course vital that you don't show any flesh...remember the clean pair of knickers, hit by a bus advice ! The serious advantage is that, like all bras it has in fact got two cups ie. two facemasks so you can save the tot...
