I'm thinking of altering my debs dress to wear to a wedding this year.....Yes, I'm that cheap

I only spent €25 on my debs dress (ebay FTW). In fairness though the main reason I used ebay was 'cause I couldn't find a nice on in Galway and I wanted something a bit different. Still the price was a huge bonus. I really liked my Debs though, had great craic. Although I suppose I didn't hype it up that much compared to most people. The friend I brought as my date was my friend's date for hers the next day. There was the same photographer at both and when I went to collect the photos the woman said 'He gets around doesn't he?!' If only she knew he's gay...

Btw anyone think there's a point setting up a Know your...' thread here or are too many posters closeted, don't want to recognised e.t.c?

Well I suppose you're only going to be posting in it if you're out, nobody's forcing you to post a pic, right?

Edit- can we call it "know your quiltbags"?????

I like your thinking. Don't post if you want to remain annonamous. I'd be comfortable showing my ugly mug :P

What a delightful weekend I've had. Had a 200 mile round trip down to Limerick for an interview. Got my car NCT'd and need a retest due to 3 stupid fecking problems and now it's going to cost me another €28.

Seconded...I have a full license but still can't afford to run a car, and I'm desperate to get away from the family =/

I wore trousers to my Debs, back in the day (2005 - le sigh..) Out of 350 people.. so, 175 girls in my year, I was the only one to wear trousers.

I wanted a tux, with a red shirt, black tie and red cons. My Dad said awesome, and my Mam said ABSOLUTELY NOT.

So we spent weeks, upon weeks, finding me these awesome black, heavy fabric trousers with more fabric around the sides (looked awesome, I promise), and a black, knee length, mandarin collar, transparent jacket type yoke, and a little black teeshirt to go under it.

I looked pretty epic. People complimented my outfit to my Mam only last year again!

I went with a boy who taught me how to make paper aeroplanes in playschool, and who had been my best friend until I was 7. We were friends again early secondary school, but fell out of touch. But we went right back into being good friends at my debs, and chatted away, slagged away perfectly

He even brought me a corsage

No neither of my brothers have ever learnt to drive or intend to and I know a few people who feel the same. I wouldn't care about a getting license if I didn't hate depending on buses so much.

Especially not where I live! :pac:

(It would almost take longer to get a car out of the car park here than it would to walk to Heuston Station or across the river to get a bus)

i remember the outrage i saw when someone asked why some people never learn to drive - the general consensus seems to be were lazy and if we can drive but chose not to, its not so bad. but were still lazy, lol.
im betting we get more feckin exercise :pac:

Ah I remember my Yahoo Chat days...

Had my first account here from about 2001 onwards... I remember a time where I'd try to load a page, go make a cup of coffee, come back and it would just about have loaded. Next time I'd load a page I'd go get a biscuit to go with the coffee, and so on and so forth :pac:

IOL dial-up. These were the days :pac:
