I must add that I hate to see people wandering around supermarkets and shops half naked,I think its bad manners.that applies to both sexes:-))

Ooooooooo Joanie - I hate to imagine the picture I have conjured up LMHO:)))))))))))))))))

Well, I went into town earlier with my daughter. Whilst we were sitting having a Prawn Cocktail Finger cob, past us stolls a group of 5 or six folks. One *lady* was aged approx 50 - 60 yrs old, extremely thin ( at which I asked my daughter - Am I as thin as that?) .. she was wearing a multi coloured bikini top and a VERY short mini skirt. There was more material on the Bikini top than she actually needed ... and she was - grossly thin. (This is were I don't give my daughters answer :-(( ..) I felt extremely embarrassed for her ...WHY ???? She was obviously *comfortable* going into a crowded shopping town dressed like that. I didn't have any objections to her dressing like that, but, because I am also very thin, I couldn't do it myself, and as I said, I really did *feel* for her. Had I seen her on the beach or in her own back garden, I wouldn't have noticed her .... and I do think there is definately a 'place' for people stripping off, but I don't object to it. Wouldn't do it myself though ...... I would make too many people feeel ill ... Elaine ;-) I will never see Chrissie in the same light again either !!! .and Chrissie, you do have a super body, you are very shapely and should flount what you have :-)) I would !!! (if I had your curvatious bod)

*Rolls eyes around picturing Chrissie scampering around with her duster in her hand!* Lol :0)) Joan xxxxxxxxx

I am not too bothered about taking tops off to keep cool.........BUT there IS a place. and the place is NOT in an eaterie or shopping centre. Men should, when indoors wear something that has at least a short sleeve.................ugggh! Armpits............pits indeed on SOME people, just added this bit...........and young pregnant females with their bumps out for the world to see Bob

Hi At home when its hot i wear bra and boxer shorts,but thats at home,okay i admit to getting caught by a fella going to work when i unbolted the gate this morning ,but it was 4:30 am,,he shouldnt be out ,,not fair,,but i would love to have the body to wear a bikini,,but the body needs a lot of repair work for that,an at my age ,well you can hear the coggs in the brains working an know what their thinking an can imagine the comments,but it would be so nice,,

David I agree, men should be able to go topless if they want regardless of their age, after all have you seen some of the young girls, with their crop tops, hipster jeans, and a very large roll of white blubber, so if that is acceptable then an older man should be able to show his top half off. Bev

David Dont worry I think I have too much of a hangover to argue LOL but - I didnt say they couldnt wear speedos and have their belly hanging out did I? I just I dont think it looks nice and again that is my opinion, but at the pool and at the beach is the right place to go topless and if someone wants to then thats their right, but walking around topless or as someone has already said half undress (clothes that dont fit) then they would expect someone to look if they walked into a grocery store as it isnt the right place to do that.

Ooooooooo is that what 'muffin tops' are ??? And I thought they were the blueberry ones from S*insbury's pmsl !!!! :0)) Joan

*runs through blushing - wonders if Joanie and Elaine will still be her friend lol*

Right, that Mr Owen, just for that lack of sympathy, I'm going into the attic in a minute and getting my winter mohair out! So there!

Oooo did anyone see that rather lissom young lady with the rosy cheeks just fly through here ?? pmsl ! ;0)) Joan

Crikey Linda - do I really come across like Mrs Bouquet? I must try and change my image. Oh, I forgot, I already have LMHO:)))))))))))))))))))

I have no probs with men in shorts and going topless in this weather. Can you imagine the reaction from women if we were told not to wear skirts or shorts because they weren't the right shape ? It's a big no from me to men being topless in restaurants and supermarkets though. However, if we ban men from going topless in shopping centres, then I think it only fair that women wear more than a bikini top.

Elaine - that is really interesting but I'm not sure what I think about it:)) There was certainly nothing unkind in what you were thinking - I suppose it's like seeing someone who is really bizarrely dressed but who doesn't seem to notice or care Maz n Linda - I HATE mohair pmsl lol Bob - but that's a personal thing isn't it? Thanks Bev & Gwen:) I'm suitably sympathetic now I've done laughing Glenys;)) Interesting that a lot of people think it's ok depending on where and when. I don't have a problem with anyone being in a supermarket topless personally - I'd much rather people undisciplined children and stupid people who dawdle in the middles of aisles were banned cos I think the time and place for them is not when I'm trying to get round:)

* imagines Chrissie running thru thread with 4 rosy cheeks * pmsl :-))) Maz. XX

David See we do agree on some things - like the people in the supermarket who walk in the middle!! And those with naughty kids who always seem to wait for you to walk in then follow.. Debs x

Not everyone looks good topless but then some people just don't look good dressed...........but I think that people should do as they feel as long as it does not offend.............but not claims that it offends on religious grounds

lol Debs - I actually think no-one should be allowed in a supermarket except me when I'm going! pmsl Maz Linda, I have to say Chrissie is lovely and not very much like Mrs Bucket lol (although I seem to remember her hair was immaculate;))

David I think again I have to agree, wouldnt it be great? Anyway off to the pool!! Might shake this hangover off then.. You have a great weekend Debs x
