I've got some of those thai fisherman trousers, they are comfortable but take me forever to wrap, and once I lost control of them in the garden centre (they are under better control these days). Also they are one of those things it is annoying to have to go to the toilet while wearing as it is such a performance retying them every time (perhaps I am just rubbish at it).

Off topic, do you remember those bodysuit things that fastened with poppers between your legs, and then as soon as you got drunk (misspent youth) you couldn't fasten them again - I saw a woman buying one in John Lewis recently and loudly proclaiming how happy she was they were back in fashion, and I thought, I hope they are not! As I am no more flexible now than I was when they were last in! :shock:

Love the bloomers, great idea :iconbiggrin:

So it was you we spent all night laughing at :lol:

Actually I couldn't get the sodding things done up sober, never mind drunk.

I think I may still have one lurking in the bottom of my underwear drawer MMM - I'll send you an early xmas present :lol: (We really need a smiley for crying with laughter!)

Also I always found they were cut slightly too short (possibly because mine came from the 'seconds' stall on the market) so you were wandering about looking like Mrs Overall and with a curiously flattened cleavage (obviously only until you had been to the toilet and failed to fasten it again, when you had a whole different set of problems)

Yes, I do not draw the line at much but I am drawing it at bodysuits (and ski pants). Let's all pretend I never mentioned them!

Oh no no no! Not used! Seconds as in something had gone wrong with them when they were being made in the factory and they were being sold off cheap! :shock:

But I think we can add used undies generally to the things the line has to be drawn at...

Nice knicks, Flibster!

I had a pair of wrap-around trousers once... They looked cool, but they did become a pain, flapping about all over the place, but I am what you'd call a brisk walker :lol:

#I had a bodysuit when i was about 10, my mum ended up having to replace the poppers with velcro 'cos i didnt have the co-ordination to do them up... anoyingly uncomfortable if it shifts or isn't done up properly...and i can just imagine how I'd looke in one now hahaha!
