Can you believe it darlink we went along for costume fitting.

We were late it has to be said but Mavis the costumier was so rude.

When she measured me around my bust she tutted. Tutted well I really can not help that I have enormous bosoms, Equally when measuring the inside leg of the gorgeous one - she clucked obviously short on the inside wasnt as easy for her.

Still we managed and then the fabrics well tacky you would not believe how awful 80% were I want something really sheer and floaty with gorgeous colour coming through - I did wax quite ventricle l at this point but apparently my impressive ones needed something stronger to hold them I ask you what did she mean should i DANCE IN

SCAFFOLDING!.

Next shoes: I wear an eight (she clucked again) The first pair were too tight around the heel my inability to prance around in those was obvious the moment I walked across the room I managed to trip.

I regained my composure as I sat patiently trying on shoes - too tight - too high- too low ooh my bunion! Eventually a pair of somewhat sparkly vivid coloured shoes appeared and thank goodness the were good!

Hair next this part was going to be so easy my darlings (I thought I have very short hair ughher)

now you will have to wait and see extensions - colour - spiky a wig just what they are doing to me. :)

Finished what Oh No not finished accessories that bit was actually fun

Good Done Oh I never said the color of the fabric it went right out of my head never mind it is not long five more practise days and then we are ON !

From Rhythm and Blue thats Gins and you know who darliks!

brilliant at least you wont need to shave LOL

Oh Gins, I got as far as getting the Spanx on then had to have a lie down - have realised that my costume will have to be one that allows bathroom breaks without the need to remove any clothing! Daughter has suggested a 'she-wee' device but given my often poor grip my aim could be unreliable.... don't want to splash my bobby dazzler footwear. Have considered cutting side seams into the Spanx and using velcro to fix them on and off.... but somewhat concerned that I might 'pop out' of my costume, potentially embarrassing on live tv.

Toodle pip!

Ah, but I saw you limbering up on the sidelines Loret - and all that practice you've had in 'swanning' around the garden will hold you in good stead!

Yes Cece is right, it's about RA in general but you could get in a bit of "rise and fall" by way of analogy to the emotional highs and lows of RA for example of other aspects of the steps if you know them, hope that helps.............

Was also thinking that when you all post your limericks, you could describe your final rehearsal and what you're wearing on the big night. Also how you feel about the first night and your state of readiness for this particular dance, 28 hours to go.............
