I was on ebay still browsing for a navy blue fascinator for the wedding and somehow won a wig instead:

I think it may be time for an intervention--you are spending waaaaay too much time on ebay :D

Ah, but I've been back to 17 Moments for the last hour, and reckon on another two chunks before midnight.

It's starting to get tense, isn't it!

Yes; I wish it was on DVD and watchable in complete episodes downstairs in comfort, rather than the ten-minute segments up here, but it is strangely thrilling. And tonight I watched Mueller with the fingerprint result again just for the sheer brilliance of it.

to be worn with wig or without?

I like it, an elegant frou frou ;) nothing staid and boring about it!

Mmmm. (That is a dubious Mmmm.) I have to go through the motions though. Next step is the corset.

Corset? what is this, a royal wedding or something :D

I think a wig would make an excellent pet (and not even the most anti-animal landlord could object to it.) If I had one, I'd definitely want to stroke it and feed it lettuce and pieces of chopped up carrot. Have you named it yet? I think that you should. *nods*

LOVE the gravity-defying hat, BTW. It'll go very nicely with your shiny new shoes. :-)

My mother was helped off an icy pavement in shock years ago, convinced she had killed someone's cat by squashing it in her fall, only to discover that it was her own wig flattened underneath her.

I never understood why she had one. She had masses of hair. But she was getting one for my wee balding grannie, and just got one herself for fun while she was at it!

I'm going to soak mine overnight in gin. Think I am going to need plenty of that too and, if I keep it well watered, the spirit may soak through my scalp to me.

Oh my word! I laughed like a drain when I read about your mother and the cat 'accident'! :-)

Soaking your wig in gin is an inspired suggestion. I wholeheartedly approve.
