WELCOME MAT
July14
Last night I went to bed with wet
hair and woke up with it looking like
Tina Turner’s!
Actually, I probably looked more like a
member of Slade or the Bay City Rollers
after a really good night of smashing up
a hotel room.
“Aged Rocker” could also describe
how my body felt, thanks to four hours of
wandering around one large shopping
mall looking for a dress that I could wear
to a 50th-birthday barbecue. I wanted
something that wouldn’t require me to
wear “squeezy” knickers – you know,
those knickers that cause you to internally combust if you’re not in air-
conditioning.
I did find an okay one eventually – but then I also found a couple of
bargain-priced shoes in the Great Singapore Sale; one of those should
perk the whole outfit up nicely. There’s nothing like a good bargain!
We have some sportswear featured in this month’s magazine. Anything
you wear to run or play sport in this climate needs to be as brief as possible
– nothing with sleeves for me anyway.
If you’re heading somewhere cooler for a holiday – and that’s probably
99 percent of the world – enjoy. I have just bought my thermal underwear
for New Zealand as they’ve just had the coldest May day on record. Maybe
I should pack my squeezy knickers too?
For planning ahead for future holidays, we have a Maldives story this
month that should get you inspired. Start saving the pennies now! Sorry,
that should be dollars…
Happy dreaming!
