    "Here's looking at you, kid" and what might get you slapped

    I hate being called babe/babes, by either sex, but when men do it I want to die a little inside! I also hate it when men call me "mate." I am not a man and I am not your mate, neither am I a sexual partner of yours. Being called anything else doesn't really bother me, but I love it when my...

    Does anyone else have difficulty sharing a bed?

    Personally I love sleeping with my other half. We both are fairly heavy sleepers and generally don't disturb each other. I know this isn't the case for many, but my parent's had a horrifically bad marriage and they slept in different rooms for the last 10 years until they've now separated...

    I agree, I just don't find blonde men attrative. It sounds silly and superficial, but I think because I have red hair, if I go out with a blonde man it won't go as well as someone who has brown hair...how ridiculous, but I think that's why I generally don't fancy blondes. I have to say I...

    Anyone else ever feel like this?

    This might sound strange, but what I find works for me is cleaning. If I've had a couple of down weeks and I've let my appearance slip a bit, I start to notice dirt and mess around the house and that really affects me. So I clean and tidy and because the house looks so nice, the next day I...

    BBC Home Movie Roadshow

    Has anyone been watching this? I've caught a couple of bits of it, usually just before I fall asleep (no not because it's boring hehe). For those of you who haven't seen it it's 100 years of British people's personal home videos and is lovely to watch! There was an adorable family in Scotland...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    You may be right, I have had it for years. Part of the problem is I'm so pinickity (is that how you spell it?) and have really fine hairs so I'm constantly rubbing my leg to see if there is any trace of hair. I admit I usually have a bit of a break between legs hehe, but I think you're right.

    Vintage lady grumpiness...

    I found that very interesting to read. I agree with the fundamentalism section and it annoys me when people say, "You know it was horrible back then, why would you want to live like that?" And the point, as I say to them, is that I don't want to live in the 40s, but I like the clothes, music...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    I move it up my leg too and it does take ages. To do both my legs fully it can sometimes take over an hour and a half just because I have to keep going over bits.

    "Sherlock" BBC series.

    I already made a thread for Sherlock TV series lovers so maybe admin can merge them? I personally loved the new series. I didn't watch it to begin with because I absolutely abhor poorly interpreted Sherlock movies and TV series. Fortunately my other half convinced me to watch it and I love...

    Lace it up - The true Corset thread

    I have a question. I broke my ribs last November and obviously have not since put on a corset. Sometimes I still feel a little tenderness, how long should I wait until I can put on a corset? Or will it not do any damage at all?

    The History/Evolution of Birth Control *Ladies Only*

    I hate to bring thing us but Depo-Provera does have serious side effects, so much so that no doctor should prescribe it to you if you've been on it two years. I was on it for 1 and a half years and decided to stop using it because my body was feeling the effect of having large amounts of...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I keep getting comments that I look like Lucille Ball, especially when I do a front roll and tie a silk scarf in a bow on top of my head. I find that such as compliment.

    Curlers - what am I doing wrong?!

    I definately recommend putting layers in your hair. I too have just about chest length hair all one length and the curls drop out and lose shape so easily. Yesterday I cut layers in the back and front of my hair and I have finally obtained an accurate Rita Hayworth look all thanks to the...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I bumped into two people in London who were absolutely accurately dressed in 40s clothes. I literally went over squeeling to them and they were so pleased that there were all 3 of us dressed in vintage and were into the events, clothes etc. We had a really brief chat, but got on so well...

    He certainly does, but on the same note I feel the female response was slightly too harsh. Something else I look for in a man is one that does not mind my ambition to be a housewife (looking after the cleaning, cooking and finances) and a mother and will in fact support me in doing so. Many...

    Gentlemen prefer...

    On the child subject, I can't wait to have them (only 22) and my other half has to want children too. I don't want to be the kind of woman who forces the other one/tricks them into having a baby. I live about 20 mins from London and am vintage so maybe I'm the odd one out. To be honest I think...
