Know what is funny?

A South African friend of mine went back home on holiday together with her hubby's boss and his wife.

They went to a very upmarket mall in Cape Town and after a few minutes she realized why everyone was looking at them out of the corner of their eyes.

They were dressed in typical Floridian clothing. Khaki shorts, tshirt and sneakers. Over there, we'd put on a nice dress to go down to the corner shop!!! If you go to the mall, you'd better be wearing make up, and dressed nicely. She felt so small... lol

I had a good laugh at that one.

Dirty Mare, I bet her and the kids had not even bothered to wash or get changed since they got up

Yeah you're probably right. Says me who at 4:15pm is just headed to the shower!!! Today has been a total non starter.
My boys were in the shower at eight thirty this morning, I knew I should have got in there with them.

Cheers Vic, finally got into the shower at half four and have just returned from a massive food shop so I'm not that much of a lay about!!! Oh and I went to the store in proper attire, left the PJ's in the washer!!!

That really depends on what you wear to bed.
