Just an Observation
Just an Observation
I’ve only posted a couple of times here and that was a long time ago but I really want to share an observation I had today.
This morning, I attended my local Toolstation store in Hertfordshire, England. I was wearing a skirt and tights. The young man serving me was wearing two necklaces. One was an imitation pearl and the other was a thin gold chain. He also wore two beaded bracelets, one of them imitation pearl to match the necklace. His female work colleague was wearing trousers, possibly a work requirement, and she was serving a man who had his hair coloured in shades of yellow and orange. I thought, wow, a real life blurring of the male and female fashion boundaries by four unconnected people sharing a random coming together. Long may it continue.

Don't be a stranger.

Re: Just an Observation
Toolstation and their sibling Screwfix are a melting pot of trades people all over the country, just trying to get the work done. I use a number of them, depending on where I am, while wearing my working skirts. My local Screwfix, however gets a range of skirts, since I drop in there to pick stuff up in my non working time.
I am working in a few houses in Cuffley, Radlett, Moor Park, so there is always a chance I may bump into you one day on site?
Daily, a happy man in a skirt...
Re: Just an Observation
Hello Mouse. I live in WGC and am currently working in Whetstone at the moment so yes, it’s possible we could bump into each other.
