Even the ones I had made not two years ago have had to move out of my wardrobe. I had kept them for when I got thin again. Alas I have decided that this is not going to happen any time soon. If it does I shall buy myself the most expensive trousers I can find. I think my money is pretty much safe the Bao-Bao.<br /><br />At present I have 3 pairs of pants that fit ... all jeans. I have told my father not to bother dropping dead as I have nothing to wear to his funeral. He hooted at that.<br /><br />Keithkrobbienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1274299963162134114.post-70484793842272980812012-11-17T21:27:11.676-08:002012-11-17T21:27:11.676-08:00Well, I don't agree 100% with Surowieckie'...Well, I don't agree 100% with Surowieckie's opinion piece there, but thanks for the link.<br /><br />There may well be enough greed on <i>both</i> sides to bury the corporation.
