I am a little fat. I like food; what can I say? I have dull hair: mousey. I don’t wear much make-up and have no need of a dressing table. If I look like a bag lady, I chose my own clothes. If I look nice, the Hub picked them for me. Despite all this, I am a little vain. This photograph is from 2003. I had to go back that far to find one of me that I liked. But I don’t really care: my husband still thinks I’m beautiful and if he doesn’t, he loves me enough to lie about it. I’m lucky. I have two boys. They never lie to me. Still, you can't have everything.
I would love to hear from you!

Today is National Poetry Day. I was going to bring you some fun and interesting facts about poetry, but you know what? There aren’t any. Not on the internet, anyway. Poetry is dull. By the way, remember to check out my poetry blog, I’m Not A Verse. * * * * * I did find […]
Viewfromtheside offered fascinating as the weekend theme. I thought you might like some fascinating facts. Can you guess which, if any, are true? You can’t fold paper more than seven times. You can, actually, if you are young and determined and rope in your family and a shopping mall. From Wikipedia: In January 2002, while a […]
With apologies to Paul, who might not find this blog to be quite what he was expecting. Take a look at this You Tube video. This – boy? young man? lad? What do I call him? He’s of a similar age to Tory Boy but obviously we are not on similar terms. I’ll call him ‘person’ […]
I have long been in search of the perfect handbag. It must be black; have a short and long handle, so that I can carry it down, under my arm, over my shoulder or over my chest; it must not be so big that I carry a load of junk around with me that I […]

I am in AWE!
Where are the costumes he’s made for you?
I beg your pardon? I’m a good girl, I am.
Brilliant costumes! Bet you have had some made by him too, I’m thinking French parlour maid, nurse, bunny …
Have you met my friend Earlybird…?
Fantastic costumes!
Great, aren’t they?
He is good.
I especially like the sikh pose. Wonderful costumes! Your hub is so talented.
He really is. The best part is that he finds the stuff around the house and hardly ever has to buy anything.
I love the harry potter one!
He looks so cute
Those are AWESOME. You should get them featured on Angela Barton’s blog in the Thrifty Threads section.

I’ll check it out.
Quite nice work with the sewing.
There wasn’t much in these, apart from the Harry Potter cloak and Star Wars cloak (from an old blanket).
All I can say about your Hub is HE IS AMAZING! He should open a custom design costume shop! Wow!
He is amazing; I know it. About this, anyway
Wow – amazing costumes
xx
..oops please can you correct my typo
Thanks xx
Done.
Spud will become a great actor and make your fortunes. Hub will be costume designer. The Sikh’s my favourite, too.
Spud wanted to be an actor from the age of four until he discovered rugby and it clashed with drama club. Now he’s given up rugby. What a waste.
