Beware of SAMMY DRESS. That site usually ships from China and there are confirmed sizing issues with the products. I ordered a shirt for my daughter in XL, which is way bigger than she would wear as she is a very trim and petite girl. The shirt's size was laughable; it might have fit a seven year old girl, but not a 22 year old. Since it took over six weeks for them to deliver it, I didnt even bother to return it. The post charge was more than the item cost.TheRod wrote:Lots of colorful skirts at Sammy Dress: http://www.sammydress.com/Wholesale-Skirts.html

Jenn,
Just reading over that SCI-FI story I mentioned again, I realised I had actually used Cheyenne as the indians language (not Apache after all)
It was several years ago

Re: New to this site!
looking at their sizing charts it says in their size converter that their size 2XL is a UK size 18-20 and yet in the size chart (measurements) it states that their 2XL waist size is 31.89 inches ... i'm yet to see anyone who is a size 18-20 that has a 32inch waist ... idiotsdillon wrote:Beware of SAMMY DRESS.

Hey I wouldn't mind reading it. Sometimes we can change our spouses minds other times it's a no win. Least you can find great support here for the time being. I have been looking at skirt sites most of the morning trying to line up site's for Moon to give him more choices for skirts. Most of the sites I've found though are expensive. However they had some really cool skirts on there I thought he might like. I do hope things turn around for you and will be Praying they do!
I would like to send you the story - it is in 3 parts and, as I cannot see a way to send attachments either as a PM or a direct e-mail, so have sent you my direct e-mail via a PM to get your direct e-mail address. However, you seem to have deleted your PM reply. No problem if you don't wish to don't wish to to exchange e-mails - that's fine.
(Do note that any sent PM remains in your outbox until the recipient opens it - perhaps you were wondering why it didn't seem to be sent and deleted it. I thought that when I first sent PM's through this site)

Have you gotten my PM Ross? I sent you my email but not sure if it went through! Let me know and I can resend you my email.

Re: New to this site!
Jenn,
I only received an e-mail from you that said "Message deleted by Author". Could you try again?

Re: New to this site!
Jenn,
Glad you like it - to save you waiting, I will e-mail the two other parts to complete the tale shortly
We enjoyed creating it - especially as (at the time) we would have had no idea what the other fellow was going to write next or where the story would go.

I have written another full length novel (again co-written as the western one) but set more in a STAR WARS-type futuristic universe with
a Han Solo type character, a Princess to be rescued, strange worlds, an evil Baron and a gorgeous Replicant type android (but different from Bladerunner) And giant insects! And a Godzilla-type monster called a chrixiyxon.... OOH err. and more...
And the Han Solo type character wore skirts occasionally!............ OOOOhhhh EEErrrr...

Re: New to this site!
Jenn,
I thought that the the Star Wars sci-fi tale was in fact complete but on looking at my copy of it I seem to be missing one chapter - and its the second to last one! I will have to spend some time recreating a link between chapters 19.2 and 19.4 (which is the ending!) before I can send even the early draft of the story. One of the things I will try and do when I retire (mid-April 2016 that is)
As for the other tale, that had barely got started when the previous SCI-fi site disappeared - and still has a long, long way to go. Just over 17,700 words written so far (it is about aliens, UFO's and brings in diverse elements from Roswell, WW2, Twin towers, yellowstone super-volcano, Area 51 etc)
Men wore skirts in this one as well...

Re: New to this site!
I just came across this today. So welcome Jenn. It certainly is wonderful to have a wife be both supportive and helpful.
