Re: Lazy women
I remember my mum's darning mushroom, I'm quite a good darner myself, but no need to any more - it would probably cost more to darn than to buy new - unfortunately??? Unless of course men's swimming costume related.....

Your cossy looks alright to me.
Hello! Hello! Who's your lady friend?
Who's the little girly by your side?
I've seen you with a girl or two.
Oh! Oh! Oh! I AM surprised at you.
Hello! Hello! Stop your little games.
Don't you think your ways you ought to mend?
It isn't the girl I saw you with at Brighton.
Who? Who? Who's your lady friend?

You cant see from this picture but the elbows are shot, due to prolonged periods of doing the chicken song, with all the actions..altogether now "hold a chicken in the air"

Don't do this to me! Only just got that blasted song out of my head from when I posted it on the animal and bird song names thread a few days ago!

Re: Lazy women
I have just warbled( I would have said'sung'....but I can't carry a tune in a bucket) that song to Spindles and he fell about laughing....hilarious, was what he called it.
Davemac - you don't really need elbows in your cossie....cut the sleeves short...show your real elbows.

Yes, nevermind the upcoming Special Wooly Olympics.
He really needs to make sure his cozzy is decent, before the postponed Victorian Swimming Gala takes place on Broadway.
Knitty Nora could have darned it in no time, when she was in residence in the Market Hall, crocheting her arty gonks.
Now the weather's better, perhaps someone from H.B.C. will soon be announcing the new date for the gala.
Hopefully.
We were all soooooooooooooo looking forward to it.

I don't think cutting the sleeves short is the answer, it makes my mittens connected through the sleeves on elastic hang a bit funny.
All together now;
Hold a chicken in the air,
Stick a deckchair up your nose,
Buy a jumbo jet,
And then bury all your clothes............

I have, but I have replaced them with "Bob Martins" I do feel a bit confused, but I do have a cold nose and my hair is all shiny.
The down side is , if someone throws a stick, I have to go and get it.

Re: Lazy women

This will give you an idea why it is still in pristine condition.
