it's good, but i dont think you can get away with wearing that instead of a ball gown!

Maybe though...I dunno how strict they are!


And religion isnt lowering people's IQ, it's just them choosing to believe in something because they don't think they can understand it in any other way, which is quite reasonable because science hasn't totally explained everything. But I am not religious because I believe that science will eventually be able to explain these things which religious people claim exist. Choosing to believe in all this jesus stuff is a different matter though. I'm not denying he existed, I'm just doubting all the things he is claimed to have miraculously done. If I got enough people to claim they saw me fly without aid (just hover in mid air), and I wrote it down in a book and stuff....if I got enough people to do that, then I'm sure 100 years down the line someone will still believe I did it! That jesus stuff was all a big hoax in my opinion. A hoax designed to control people!

Hi again peeps. The internet computer (my dad's) is on the blink again and he's just gone out to get a new motherboard and video card for the thing, aparently the processor and RAM are still good. We're using an old machine at the moment and it is soooooo slow. It took about 5 mins to load the reply screen. V. annoying. At least my stuff still works. How is everyone then, anything good going on. Is anyone going to these Fresher's Welcome Parties?


my fresher's party was last night.....erm i didn't go. lol. couldn't be bothered, plus i didn't have a clue where it would be....Liverpool is a confusing city

I'm going to the one in Manchester tonight. I don't think there was one in Liverpool, think the nearest ones for you was Mancheter or Lancaster. Not exactly easy for you, mine's about 45 mins from where i live.

Really? Cool! Say hi from me. Is it Birmingham, Penrith or High Wycombe? Or London?

Well... It is a ballgown nonetheless. Only it's not European/American ish. It works best on women with good curves. Doesn't mean not everyone can wear it.

There wasn't much at the Leicester party. Less than 20 actually bothered to turn up. Unfortunately, there wasn't anyone going to Pembroke.

see i'd have thought only women with "banana/pole" shaped figures could wear that..because they're not very stretchy, people with really defined hips/waists can't wear them.

Most of these are tailor made. If you buy one, it'll fit you alright. I'm currently searching through google for picture of women wear it. I'll post the results later.

that will be cheap! :rolleyes:

It is CHEAP! (terms and conditions apply, i.e. you buy it from China not from England. In doing so, it'll cost less than 70 pounds) I have no idea how much it'll cost you if you buy one from China Town. (I think you can get one there, or at least you should be able to. China Town won't be (shouldn't be) called China Town without it.)
I found 4 pictures. And I can't be asked to search for more.



Edit: it appears that the last one isn't working.
youre right they are very pretty, but i don't know if they'd look good on me... anyway, i love my new ballgown! :biggrin:
