Christmas for her
Women are so easy to buy for, perfume chocolates etc. But here's some help with the trickiest of all.
Lingerie
Make sure you get the right size. If you're "generous"with your sizing and buy say a size 14 when she's really a size 12. She'll think, you think she's fat. Then you'll be spending all evening trying to convince her that she's not. Instead of the other thing you wanted to do, (the washing up).
Also make sure it's doesn't look too cheap and tacky. She could take it back to the shop and exchange it for something sensible. Remember if you bought it from Marks and Spencers that could mean she trades your sexy underwear for a non stick frying pan and a prawn sandwich.
Good places to shop are
Marks and Spencer
Selfridges
Figleaves - the selection is a bit overwhelming, good brands are Aubade and Lejaby.
For larger sizes Bravissimo
Get her correct size by checking the label of her bra, or asking her friend.
My next post will be a failsafe recipe for the most important thing on Christmas day, apart from presents obviously, Roast Potatoes. Also a ridiculously festive twee photo of Grizzle and Fluffy.

I know a bloke who bought his girlfriend an "Ab-Buster" for Christmas one year.
The A&E Department were brilliant and removed it very quickly with petroleum jelly.
Even spookier, they stayed an item and got married last month!!!
No names, no packdrill. Can't wait for the festive fluffy fotos!!!

I never tell my friends the size of my bra.
It would be too underwhelming.

Great Ideas. Marks and Sparks always a winner!Practical yet sexy in a non-crotchless kind of way...feeling a friend is always a good determination of size!

Murph - A true love story.
greavsie - My fav is sage and onion
Kaz - lol, there are bras for that you know.
Anon- As a man if you're going to wear womens underwear, why not the best?
I hope your fellow team mates at the rugby club appreciate it.
Senor T - I don't feel my friends what are you suggesting?

Bravissimo is a god-send. And they do Rigby and Peller which I am sure Jordan's new range won't.
Nice to have you back Heather. Don't worry about us, we've been amusing ourselves while you were away.
(No, not like that Senor)
