I am, depending on the individual style, either a 30J or a 30JJ UK size and I cannot buy a bra on the high street ANYWHERE except Bravissimo. Like, literally anyway. I haven't bought a bra anywhere other than Bravissimo since I was approximately fourteen years old, and even their styles don't always come in those sizes. I also have a very narrow cleavage, so plunge bras are much more comfortable than full cups, which tend to rub.

When I find a pretty, flattering bra in an attractive and practical material, which fits comfortably in my size and doesn't look likely to cause any problems or discomfort, the urge to buy fifty-seven of them and patiently ration them out for the next decade is a strong and powerful one.

As an open-minded and susceptible little girl with some extremely close female friends I remember being slightly disappointed when I saw labyrinth for the first time and thought, welp, looks like I'm not a lesbian then. David Bowie's crotch has a lot to answer for.

Honestly I'm actually surprised they lasted that long. I don't know about Eve but if I'd spent SIX SOLID HOURS rambling around in the fresh air with nothing to eat I'd require absolutely nothing in the way of temptation to grab the first edible that presented itself. Never mind your healthy organic produce, that serpent would probably have ended up as snake kebab before it could even open its mouth.

Nah Pope Lizbet I think your rank exempts you from needing indulgences (??? Or possibly the exact opposite. Citation needed, was too busy revelling in Mallory to pay attention to the actual point of the exercise.)

I LOVE going to the theatre alone. I L O V E IT. I buy myself a ticket right in the frigging middle right at the frigging front and I buy myself a teeny bar of the poshest chocolate I can find and I open up the wrapper FULLY before the play starts and break the whole thing into bite-sized pieces so I don't disturb anyone with rustling during the performance and I HAVE MYSELF A MINI ORGY OF CULTURE AND INDULGENCE and don't have to put up with anyone's Wrong Opinions about it afterwards.
