Talking of clothing for the nether regions, have any of you seen these new fangled knickers called thangs Mind you, I wouldn't call em knickers , more like a washing line and about as much use as a fart in a colonder What these young whippersnappers need is a good pair of white bloomers that go up to the waist and down to the knees. That's what they need.
From Great Aunt May.

And one of them chastity belt things too no doubt. You can get ones now where you have to enter your NIN number you know.

Eeeeeeeee me friend Mrs Higginthwaite has got one 'o them Charity Belts. 'er 'usband med it for 'er when he were 'ont cruise ships.

Do we want to watch them?

*goes to have a peek...*

I thought that I would join all of you ladies as you seem to be having so much fun. Tonight everybody I am going to be Adeline so there! And I can't stop too long because I am in training for the Great Snowdon Zimmer Race tomorrow. Anyone care to join me?

I've just got the super deluxe SX3 model - the best Zimmer around - you won't be able to beat me!

You are on! First one to reach the summit, plant a pair of large knickers there and make it back to the car park wins. Mine has pink go-faster stripes on. I did them with an old lipstick!

Do either of you ladies want sponsoring?

I wonder if a knicker tree would grow from that... scary thought!

I'll sponsor you some of my forum cafe earnings...

Yes, that a great idea - perhaps a pound for every yard travelled? I could raise £3.50...!

A pound!!!!

How far do you think my pension goes?

I think I can only manage three and a half yards on my Zimmer...!
I'll take you out for a cuppa! *will need a hoist to get to the car though*

I'd rather that nice work experience lad gave me a hand to get in the car....

Ooh...wouldn't mind him giving me a hand too...!

I'd love some sponsors please. I am collecting pennies so that I can afford a cup of tea in the cafe. And I don't even like tea but I have forgotten what else to drink. Adeline XXX

Don't worry yourself, dearie. Those nice young girls from the Social Sevices give you a cup of tea for nothing if you go to the right day centre.

Do you think that if I busk in the forum cafe I will make enough for tea? I do a very good "Mule Train".

Ohhh, so that's where I am!




Ooo, look at that weather outside, the weather forecast people got it wrong again *grumble*

*gets out clear plastic raincoat and bonnet*

The weather here is wonderful! Hot enough to go without a vest! Just right for some zimmer training before the big race. I made it to the dustbin AND back yesterday. Adeline X

Hello dears, room for one more old lady? Mathilda, that's moi.

Marshmallows and hot chocolate ??? Whatever next? In my day it was a mulled Sanatogen, me wincyette nightie, me hair in curlers and me teeth in a jar beside me bed.......mind you, now I think on, nought much has changed


Aaaaaannnnnnd Miss Benjamina, I'm a-telling you that oi shaaall be in littel ol' Ipswich on Sunday, visitin' me old aaaauntie, who's even old than I am.
She's in an ome just off tha Naaarwich Roood.

Oi'm sure yoi could. But keep it down Aggie, I ain't so deaf yet.

Ten past ten and green I think!

Ethel - or has that name been taken already? (Couldn't be bothered to read through 26 pages!!!!)

Oops - sorry yes it has - well in that case I'll be Hyacinth, as Victorians used a lot of flower names.......

Hello OLTVA

Can I please join as Lydia? It's actually my favourite girls name, but nobody I know likes it! You can call me Liddy or Lid for short. I answer to most thing anyway! Who's that girl screeching at? Sounds like my old cat! Just knitting a new blanket for my poor old knees. Anybody want a few squares? I've plenty left, dears.

Lydia is one of my favourite names. Not so sure about Lid though. I like to make crochet squares but find all the ends a real pain to finish off. I just cut 'em off so the things just fall apart after one wash. I suppose the answer is never to wash 'em. Adeline
