I'm back
fresh from my trip to the UK & Amsterdam, & like Pats, I have a couple of fashion don'ts to share with you:
DON'T wear a white, thin fabric prairie skirt when you're also wearing a dark-colored thong. :scared: and are at least 20 pounds overweight (i know, i'm not one to talk about being over-weight, but damn)

DON'T wear a pleated, white & black mini-skirt if you're approximately 4-5 months pregnant. :scared:

Sorry, no photographic evidence of such faux-pas as I was too :wow: to dig my camera out of my bag.

I wore my "Bush Lied, People Died" button, much to my cousin's chagrin, but didn't mention it or politics unless someone else brought it up...was told by some shrubbie lover on a tour who horned in on a conversation I was having with the driver that some might find it "offensive" when I refer to Shrubbie as a "war criminal." I found that the correct response is "Well, I'm offended by over 100K INNOCENT DEAD PEOPLE, especially the 1600+ who were AMERICANS!!" (cue crickets)

That'll teach 'em to eavesdrop..... :evilgrin:

Anyhow, I'm glad I'm back, if only to watch Countdown.... :loveya:

2. Welcome back, DG!
As you were describing the fashion faux pas', I was remembering seeing similar things at Disneyworld - especially at the water-parks. Some people must not have a mirror. Or pride.

4. Welcome back WDG
Glad you are home safe and had a good time. Guess bad clothing taste is something that is world wide. Good for teaching the eavesdropper a lesson.

5. The things people wear in other countries are truly frightening.
I have no such faux pas to report from my trip. But I only went to upstate NY.

Welcome back WDG!
