Posing on my Honda Shadow. I don't ride anymore, due to arthritis in my spine - although it was very useful for getting to the osteopaths!

This is a snap of me and Gavin (the Bunmeister) at a friend's wedding. I had way too much to drink and ended up doing the "Two Step" or at least, that's what they tell me. Apparently someone has that on video. I'm not much of a dancer, and not much of a drinker these days.

Thanks to Gav for taking most of the photos below!

Retro Clothing Collection
Frivolous they may be, but retro clothes are one of my passions. I love to get dressed up, but I hate shopping; as a short woman, it has always been hard to find clothes that fit. Fortunately women were smaller in the past??? As passions go, it is also a cheap one... I should have been christened Prudence. Ironically, I hate and detest fashion - that thing where we are all supposed to look the same! Last year all you could find in the shops was black and white 80's style tops. It is a conspiracy to get you to part with a lot of money every year! Apologies for the shameless posing... :o)

My current favourite, from "Ain't No Disco", an eBay shop based in Devon. Gotta love those Angel Wings!

 

A Spanish looking 70's dress,
from Libertines on eBay.

A look that says "No way will you catch me in Primark".

A lovely 70's gold coloured cotton sun dress.

 

This dress is a real Abigail's Party number,
again from Libertines.

Another very pretty 70's sun dress. I am a bit of a sucker for them.

1970's kimono dress, plus Obi belt. Charlie goes Geisha!

A very nice "Young Edwardian" 70's
prairie dress, another great favourite from
Libertines on eBay.

 

One of the most expensive items I have bought so far on eBay, an Arabella Pollen Op Art waistcoat. £30!
