Pöd nylons: Great way to save onions, tie a knot between every onion and hang them in your cellar, somewhere cool.

Just back from the relaxing Thai massage (no naughty stuff  ). It was so powerful that all my muscles, joints and ligaments are beyond sore. Never underestimate power of tiny Thai hands at work. |

Natural legs are good but..."a lady is never seen without stockings", plus it's getting nippy in the mornings.
I will turn to the opaque ones soon, those are more resistant.
FWP - world, please, make stockings more my size. Not just 3 sizes fit'em all.

"FWP happens once a while when I realize that after a few hrs of work they don't fit."
With me it's when I shorten jeans and end up with one leg longer than the other, despite taking ages to measure, cut and pin up. Maybe I now have one leg shorter than the other in my 50s? | This user would like to thank Cherub for this useful post: | |

There are people who reply in emoticons only.
Weird.
On our way back to stone-age (or further?)
Back to grunting and growling?
And how will the emoticons for grunting and growling look like when bothering "writing" an sms?
