RAK1 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 my wedding dress was a Laura Ashley. i always told my mom that my dress would be made of cotton. she always said: good luck finding one!... and i did! oh! how 80s of me! My friends, the one I'm doggsitting for, were always fans of Laura Ashley. He always bought her Laura Ashley dresses for birthdays and Christmas. I think he misses doing it.

guylainem123 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 That's really cool, very hippy style . I love it when people don't do the "normal" thing for weddings. i still have my dress in a cedar chest i don't wear it much They used to make beautiful dresses in the 80's. And great suits for work - always very feminine but still smart and lovely material. They have lost their way badly now, trying to be fashionable and cheap instead of distinctive & quality i haven't looked at their styles in a long time. i used to love it!

mellody Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I can't believe nobody's said this yet but... I think Mika is at his happiest when he's got wood. seems like they missed teaching us that expression at school, never heard it... but judging from the reactions you got for that post, i'm not surprised about that. and well, i can imagine what it might mean. "They get fed..." "...they don't have money problems..." "...and they go on holiday for free in big groups of friends." haha love it! especially the small fluffy ducks. and the 2nd pic - LOOOOL! apart from that, i prefer mika with his actual body: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naectegale Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 Apparently the sheep with a bell is called a bellwether - and it is a sort of lead sheep to help the shepherd http://askthebellwether.blogspot.com/2007/12/why-name-bellwether.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willywonka Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 "A number of ancient privileges are associated with the Freedom - although they are more a product of collective memory than of documented evidence. They include the right to herd sheep over London bridge, to go about the City with a drawn sword, and if convicted of a capital offence, to be hung with a silken rope. Other advantages are said to have included the right to avoid being press-ganged, to be married in St Paul's Cathedral, buried in the City and to be drunk and disorderly without fear of arrest." . He sure enjoys his drinking Freedom right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
