No, bras! Oh my god, I can't stand going shopping with her sometimes

I hate shopping for anything remotely underwear related with my mum, she thinks it's like mother daughter bonding time. I hasten to remind her that standing in M & S whilst she picks out granny underwear is, in no way, bonding, infact quite the opposite.

Parents and clothing is up there with bad dancing at weddings, showing baby photographs and parents who do nude shots or nude home videos. Eurgh.

My dad isn't so bad. He just has a tendency to wear slippers too much!

Noo! Richard off of the Feeling!

And Becky, I can't say I ever have done tracksuits. That's one thing I can thank my mother for, she'd never let me out the house in one.

I remember when full on tracksuits were in for girls! I never did follow that trend! Urgh.

It used to be dungarees for me when I was a kinder! haha

I went shopping with my Mum once, and she was like

"have this bra, this is nice"

"mum Iv not been measured recently"

"Oh well they don't do it here, I'll go ask for a measure at the counter"

"WHATTTT"

Hahaha! Sounds awful, I actually refuse to go underwear shopping with my motherage anymore, I make her give me the money and I go myself.

I bought a nice pair of jeans today. I showed my mum, who responded with, "yeah, they're not bad for workmen's trousers". Enough said, really. When I was a kid, the stuff my parents dressed me in was terrible. I got ridiculed by the other kids for it and I didn't own a pair of jeans or proper trainers till I was 10 or 11 and I had to have them for a school play, of all things.

My dad thinks brightly coloured flowery shirts are a good idea.

My parents clothing are actually alright! They know their limits i think... mum kits herself out in the sainsburys and asda range and dad shops in Next and Marks.

When i was younger though, my mum had a thing about me and my sister wearing dresses and frilly socks. Whilst my sister absolutely loved it, i loathed it, and would deliberately go out in the dirt and roll around just to annoy her haha.

Speaking of safari you remind me of my old science teacher, if Emma's still on she'll back me up. Mr Scott, who always looked like he was going safari in beige short sleep shirts, and beige cord-type trousers. Was always very odd. I suppose it wasn't the worst teacher dress sense at school.

(Hi I'm Jeremy Kyle!)

I love you.

I lie to friends all the time about how they looked. Thats probably a strong quality for being a bad friend, but because i dont personally like their clothing it doesnt mean they look bad. Obv if i KNOW they will be ridiculed, i will tell them.

Theres one massively overweight girl in my year who wears skinny jeans. She quite literally spills over. Cleavage on display, crack going with it. Eurgh, she repulses me.

Ah but do you just say that so you look better?

And similar to how Laura once told her boyfriend of the past he looked good, only so she knew no other girl would look twice at him, any one similarly guilty of that?

Haha good old Mr Scott. Yes I agree but not as fun as Mr Knight though, did you ever see his graph paper checkered type shirt? Ergh

If one of my friend looks a state I tell them and usually forget to sugar coat the truth :confused: Not too good when my best mate has a totally opposite style to me, but hey at least I'm honest and I get the different between "looking good but not anything I'd ever wear" and "looking like something the cat threw up"

But I'm not convinced and your hopeless hearts won't stick. For the first time I know, this is now who I am.

I did tracksuits at one point in my life. I got over my tomboy stage though, but the power rangers are still close to my heart.

Thongs are horrible. They dont even look nice AND theyre uncomfortable.

Did you do regular tracksuits or tracksuits Glasgow style with big socks with your tracky bottoms tucked into them?

My parents don't dress that badly actually, other my step-dad's tendancy to go out in trousers covered in plaster. :confused:

If you asked my sister if a member of our family has a bad dress sense, she'd reply it was me. I have a tendancy to go out in my uniform at 8pm, just because I can't find anything else to wear, I wear a very rude Scooby Doo t-shirt that everyone but me get's embarrassed about (it has Scooby Doo, a half-naked Daphne and the slogon 'Doggy Style'. I think you can work the rest out for yourselves). On top of of that, I don't even know where my trainers are since I prefer to wear my 'granny style' school shoes that she hates. Haha!

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
