I used to wear whatever I put on in the morning, but since I superglued my jeans to my leg I tend to go for old stuff

I notice no-one has mentioned the unpleasant fact of the wrath of SWMBO when "what I put on in the morning" becomes"Special old clothes" later in the same day :eek:

You could find yourself singing a Russian folk song.

This is me about to head out to the shed - got a problem with that?
Or maybe this is a throwback to a story about the guy who auctioned his ex-wife's wedding dress on Ebay and modelled it so people could see what they were buying.
Here's a link to the broader story - makes for a good read!!

His commentary is pretty funnyThere was a young boy called Wyatt
Who was awfully quiet
And then one day
He faded away
Because he overused White

Thank you, Elvis, that is what I needed at nearly 11 PM on a Wednesday night. I preferred the politically incorrect stuff, actually, but don't tell anyone.

It sorta depends on who's around as some people get pretty freaked at my normal attire and power tools. I wear long skirts most of the time (well I am female!!) and generally sandals. I always wear tops that won't get caught in anything however. If I'm in public the skirt and sandals becomes trousers and boots!

Ozwinner,
just a quick safety suggestion for your attire, delicately placed piece of duct tape and stop looking at 611's and 449's(both quite nice really) or you may tangle.
personally i like to wear whatevers lying on the floor on a Saturday morning, although i have ruled out track pants as they tend to melt when grinding sparks land on them, my last attempt left a 100mm diameter hole and some nice little red marks on my upper thigh.I tell my wife, it's not a lie if i believe it's true

Thinking along the lines that SWMBO bitches all the time about the clothes that I wear when I'm in my shed, we were up at the shops the other day and I suggested that I buy a set of carpenters overalls. The reply, "What do you want them for?"
Cant bloody win can you :confused: .
Kind regards

Maybe I over dress, but tucked in long sleeve shirt into king gee work trousers with blunnie safety boots, so when I do drop something sharp and/or heavy my feet do not get any more scars!
