Re: Two weeks....

I love the black/white skater skirt. Your link is to Romans.co.uk..... Thank you Uncle Al. As MrSoapsud points out they will ship to the US for £5. Since the skirt is 25% off, even with carriage you will be still in pocket. Also if you order now and quote BLISS in the special code area at checkout,...

Re: Two weeks....

So a number of us met in Central Birmingham on the 10th of January. Then what happens over the next two weeks?... Well here you are, day by day in pictures, along with where I went and paraded my skirts. Every picture is outside and in public, whether it is in the road outside my house or in centra...

Re: My 2nd Kilt

Thanks. I have considered D rings and ladder locks, but I don't like having the straps double back towards the front. My apologies. I may not have described what I meant very well in my earlier post? The two D-rings are attached to the end of the front flap of the wrap skirt/kilt. A strap made out ...

Re: My 2nd Kilt

I'm experimenting with different closures so this kilt is closed using skirt/pants hook-and-bar. Leather/PU straps are nice but they cannot stand the hot wash and dryer. I had a chat via a messaging app, earlier in the week, with Stevej180 who makes his own wrap skirts/kilts. He has had success wit...

Re: That rare male compliment

-- I don't think I've ever gotten a direct discount for my choice of apparel -- At the London Meetup 6/2, five men in skirts were given a discount on a round of drinks by the barman for guessing that the word of the day was "skirts". :) Link to the post about the meetup at The Eagle pub a...

He contacted around 40 stylists in the Hollywood area and offered them a free pair of UGG’s. So I reckon...

Re: Stressed over delayed parcel

Firstly, stop stressing out then ring Andertons at 10:00 on 01483 456777.
Explain the issue with the parcel being delayed.
Then it will becomes Anderton's problem, not all yours.

Re: Life Saving Tech

The Cybertruck's driver, Clifford, says that he was tired of driving so switched on the Full Self Driving Mode. If it was me, I think that I would have pulled into a rest stop instead, if one was available. I'm pleased to see that the car following Clifford, pulled over to see if he was alright (2mi...

Re: HVAC question…

So am currently at an impasse. Had the HVAC techs over... they agreed motor noise/vibration was unusual, told me to have it replaced along with the wheel. He did make one change - wired the highest speed to air conditioning and the next highest speed to heat (before, heat and cooling were both the ...
