Very true :D

Isn't it funny that what society deems is an attractive shape changes through the century's?

At the time of the Indus valley a full shaped lady was admired. At the time of the Renaissance a lady would be admired if she had an hour glass shape. Today it tends to be more the slimmer shapes of your Cheryl Cole's and Victoria Beckham that everyone strives for.

That is a subject I wouldn't mind getting onto :P although Patsy Kensit or Kelly Brooke would suffice my old bones (I reached a milestone birthday on Monday :( )

They can get in a queue but there might be a bit of a wait on the third time round. ;)

Yes, I know he did (I got A Level Latin ;) ) but you have to use the material you're given!
