CatsCube Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I got to have a rare night out last night. Since moving I dont know anyone, and with doing up the house and having the boys we havent had a change to do the whole social thing. Last night we went with some of OH's co-workers to dinner then a comedy night. I havent laughed so hard in a long time, we had a great time and are going to make a regular thing of it. his co-workers were all really nice and friendly too and said they will invite us out with them and their partners more often. Plus my other half emailed me today to say that the people he works with said I looked like Dita Von Teese. So Im now also very flattered!

Olly Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 wow yes, we need to see this! It's really hard when you move to a new area isn't it, especially when you're so busy. When I look back at how I met some of my very close friends, the initial contact is often quite random - you discover you've got something in common, and start to meet up more often, and things build from there. I have a very close circle of friends, and I can't imagine my life without them - they are brilliant. Glad you had a good time, you obviously need to get out more often!

CatsCube Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Its prob more down to the black hair and pale skin and my 40s dress sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 I wish that I could wear red lipstick but being blond with rosy cheeks it makes me look scary. Love the tattoos I am too much of a shrinking violet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty e Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 VERY GOOD! (sorry, that's a catchphrase with my friends). I also love forties fashion (although I'm aware the only pictures you've all seen of me are when I look AWFUL), and wish I could carry off that hair colour! You look amazing.

CatsCube Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 Aw arnt you all kind. Unfortunatly I dont get to get glamed up very often. As im normally mooching round the house in jeans with my hair in a permanent ponytail. I feel the need for a glam chicken keeper thread with everyone dressed in their best whilst cleaning out or feeding chickens. another form I use did something similar where we all posted pics of ourselves in evening gowns doing the housework.

Snowy Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 You scrub up well Cat! (helps if you're gorgeous to start with though!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Man Banned Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Cat you look wonderful From the first pic I think you look a little like Jill Halfpenny. I felt very similar when I moved to Gloucester but after nearly 6 years here I have amassed a load of friends including my closest friend I think I'll ever make, in Anita.

riane Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 wow I thought you looked groomed in the everyday shot then scrolled down to the going out picture . You look fab , glad you had a great time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm not posting pics of myself after seeing that .... I like the idea of the glam chicken-keepers thread, though! In the darker mornings, seeing to the chooks is usually the last thing I do before leaving for work, as it's the only chance to see them in daylight, so I'm frequently in the garden 'suited and booted', filling up the food and water. Spilling garlic powder down your work clothes is not recommended! Nor is getting, er, mud (I think that's all it was!) on your best boots!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 wow I thought you looked groomed in the everyday shot then scrolled down to the going out picture . That's what I thought . I don't look that good when I'm glammed up (not something I do anyway .) Great that you had such a good night out . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
