Hi, was just wondering if anyone could tell me any stories about the Bevin boys or point me to somewhere good to look? My grandad was a bevin boy but sadly died recently, and as he was a very quiet man he never spoke to me about it. I only found out after his death that he had coal dust embedded...
I've been black, brown, red, pink, blue, green, blonde, turquoise, purple, ginger and various combinations of the above. Only colours I haven't managed are white and grey, only because I cannot get enough red out of my hair to go that light. Once bleached my hair 3 times in a row and only just...
I like MP3s purely because space is tight here, I do still buy CDs of albums that are important to me, and vinyls for the really special ones. (Though I have no record player yet)
Our home is a 60's build, previous owner was also it's first occupant. Suspect the wallpaper is from when he first moved in, I can't wait to cover it up though. It's so dingy and makes the room look so dark and dreary. Layout wise though it's the nicest place we've ever lived in, beats the...

The shoe suggestions are great, I have problems with my back, hips and knees so flats are...
Hi, I used to be a member about 6-7 years ago, but life got in the way of my love for vintage.
I developed severe health problems which left me barely able to move, so I didn't have the money or energy to indulge my love. Then I had two children, the youngest is now 5 months. Now my disability...
Hope I'm not duplicating a thread, did a quick search but came back empty.
I used to dress up quite a lot, but over the last few years disability and two children have left me with very little time or money, and I don't want to be a frumpy mummy in jeans and t-shirts! I want so glamour and...
