Nurse Betty



So the fancy dress party on the weekend saw me dressing up as - in the words of the costume shop - a bloody nurse! I had made three visits to the costume shop and had gone through many ideas and had decided I wasn't going to dress up. I was really thrown off the idea when the lady at the shop said I definitely wouldn't fit in the what I would call "skanky gypsy" costume. I didn't want to be a skanky gypsy - ever! It was her idea. I left post haste after that conversation. I went again on Saturday morning - the day of the party - and well bloody nurse was the result. I did have a super cute red woolen cape to wear which was good. The party was super fun - and I think the costume worked well. A big thanks to my sister who did a fab job on my hair - I will be having that style again !

Excellent Farrah flick ! Good work flatmate !

There just aren't enuf opportunities to dress up anymore...did you have any good medical type one-liners ?

I didn't realise Coconuts's operation would make such a mess. Please go and wash your uniform before returning to duty.

well there wasn;t really anyone to use the one liners on. There was a very hot doctor, but then I realised he was like 20 - so nixed that idea.

I think it was a mistake to spray all of that tomato sauce over the costume, after all - it wasn't even yours !!!
