I'm blaming it all on your misses for all the delicious baking she did on holiday oh and those brilliant espresso martinis...infact can she bring a flask of those this weekend?

NOW we're talking

Finally got a dress. Still need shoes though.

[Mark.]

I think my wife had about 37 pairs delivered to try - perhaps we should bring them along for ladies to test!

Size?

[ali_kat]

^^^ & colour

High or low heel?

Court or strappy?

[mrsmadbadger]

Thanks. Finally got the shoes I was looking for in the last shoe shop of the day
I have however now packed more than one pair of shoes, as I can't decide which ones look better with the dress.

[mrsmadbadger]

If we all bring 2 or 3 pairs each, I'm sure we could solve the shoe dilemma for all us ladies

[missdiane]

I always took so much care over what shoes went with the dress, buy the perfect bag, plan my make up

Then I get pissed on the Saturday afternoon... and it all goes to pot, can't put my make up on properly, forget to do my nails and grab the first bag and shoes out of the suitcase regardless if they were the best pair

[mrsmadbadger]

Hmm, sounds like the last BTaP prep I put myself through. Ended up wearing flats most of the night instead of the heels I bought Here's hoping I stay in heels all night.

• goes off to find something resembling decent flats*

mrs crmcatee (Caroline) has been running up and down the stairs this evening saying'What about this dress", 'What about this one".

I believe we'll have three dresses joining us.

[ali_kat]

Sounds like we are all the same!

[mrsmadbadger]

I did ask him indoors earlier " when do you ever see me get girlie?"
The reply back- " only at BTaP"

Whats the record for one night then Ali ?

[ali_kat]

Trying on? Or outfit changes?

[Bob the Planner]

I was meaning outfit changes during the evening but I reckon you would be approaching a record on pre-event choices too.

[ali_kat]

Me???

No, I pretty much know what I'm wearing - whatever I have bought for it; or can fit into if I'm having a 'recycling year' so it's only been a couple to try on this year out of my 'collection'

I wore 2 outfits in 2010 - I'm wearing one of them tonight!

And I swapped dresses with AhhhMoneypenny one year, very drunkenly in the Ladies - few noticed! (Although a couple of 'gentlemen' managed to walk into the ladies whilst we were changing!!)

[mrsmadbadger]

En route now. Have 2 dresses packed and several pairs of shoes

[ali_kat]

Leaving in an hour, not showered yet!!!!

Get your coat, you've pulled.
