| My alter-ego this morning! |
It slithered down my leg, fortunately I was wearing my long, calf length dress but even so I knew that the lace and elastic were about to make a final break for freedom.
Do you know how few doorways there are in the City where you can hoick up your stockings? As to a toilet, well just forget it... I had to make do with the desperate, unsbutle clutching of my leg, while approximating a close impersonation of John Cleese with my very own silly walk, frankly more of a limp with a touch of a hunchback thrown in.
I managed to make it to an M&S and pick up a new pair and as I like to live dangerously, no I did not buy tights!
Finally next week I will have been blogging for a year, I would like to get 20,000 hits and am well on course, so thank you for clicking on here today.

Hysterical! I had a similar sort of problems with a pair of leggings I bought a couple of years ago, everyone else seemed to be able to wear them without a care in the world 'cept me. I was the one with the crotch constantly working it's way towards my knees.
The only consolation I can offer is that in London one is so anonymous and invisible no one would probably notice. I too can't wear them so resort to pop sox and trousers unless going somewhere special.
I remember my mum buying me rubber bands to keep my school socks up!! Oooh the memories, the red whale marks and cut off circulation...hehe!
Loved the story! Good luck with the 20 000 - your blog is very readable and great tutorials! Nancy
I remember a pair like that, that I washed and put back in the drawer three times before I finally remembered to through out!
More than happy to click! Happy blog-birthday.
