Ladies - Bras and I don't mean greens

[SarzWix]

I used to work as a 'bra fitter' in a House of Fraser lingerie department. The overwhelming response I used to get was 'I can't possibly be that size, I've always been a C cup'. Errr, no, you're actually an E/FF or whatever. The majority of them went back to buying what they *thought* they should be, because they didn't want what they saw as 'granny bras'.
I generally can't afford my proper size, because they don't make 'em for cheap, except with nasty wires in. So these stretchy ones look fab. And quite frankly, the plainness of them is a bonus; I have no desire to clothe myself in uncomfortable frills and lace - it does nowt for comfort!

Aberdeen Plotter - you've spent too long around champion sized onions calm down xxx

[VirginVegGrower]

For all you women thinking of upgrading these garments,please remember to recycle the old ones. I'm told that some of them can be used to line a couple of hanging baskets

Or to store your onion harvest in

[VirginVegGrower]

I just HAD to- didn't I?????

I take it that top hanging basket is from Essex?

That's as may be but I do know the difference

Reading the last page, fear I've lost out.

My issue is less than a handful, so through resentment haven't joined in.

If OK though, I will mention my sis. I don't know how large any of you are but she reallyt did benefit from going to a specialist shop and getting properly fitted. Maybe it's the same con as kiddies shoes and you can do it yourself, but comfort must always come above cost....Cameron won't be ruling forever

Thank Goodness. This lot are even worse than Thatcher and her crew

I am a Bravissimo gal....if you can then try and get to one of their shops. Please allow plenty of time for your visit, wear easy clothes and a top that you can see the differences in.
This shop saved me from dull boring bras.
Good luck!

I have always gone to M & S I get them to measure me first, I have found some really comfy bra's and have bought a few of the same in various colours. I dont know I am wearing one most of the time.

Have any of you tried the "Genie" or "Ahh" bra please?

Have you read the amazon reviews? some say great, others say 'no support'

No, but it will feel like it to those of us too ill to gain employment. Unum's John Le Cascio has "worked with" all parties.

You might think we are getting off topic here, but I just had to get it off my chest ....plus, it was only to be expected we would get onto politics...do you support one side more than the other, being an issue...
