He reckons old ladies wearing velour tracksuits in Miami would wear these. I took no notice and haven't taken them off since. Granted, they are a tad on the shiny side.

I chose the winner from Twitter as I felt that she well and truly deserves it.

What with holiday season fast approaching and the fact that I always struggle with swimwear, I started my search early. There are so many lovely ones around, but unfortunately for me you need some sort of 'lady lumps' to carry them off.</div><div><br /><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjITU8myyYLiCgKtbj4aD0JGD7YtwAxJM0-J8Fn-5q1EzYm8ndLvkVqmWEmtcxWsaMCBbbXc_jEISNJmnTL787mAwCJPFEeiQNif2R5qosVGRLoEFBNLIivz9YBylvEVPF3tkCaRDROtos/s1600/2010-05-08.jpg"><img border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjITU8myyYLiCgKtbj4aD0JGD7YtwAxJM0-J8Fn-5q1EzYm8ndLvkVqmWEmtcxWsaMCBbbXc_jEISNJmnTL787mAwCJPFEeiQNif2R5qosVGRLoEFBNLIivz9YBylvEVPF3tkCaRDROtos/s400/2010-05-08.jpg" /></a></div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px">When I was in my early teens and beginning to grow my little bee stings my family called me sprout.

Suffice it to say that i am seriously lacking in this department.</div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px">We all have one area (at least) that we are not happy with and my little raisins are my problem area. When discussing this with my hairdresser the other day, she told me 'to go topless - its all about confidence'. OHMYGOD! I find it hard enough to get them out at home let alone to the whole world. Advice from my hairdresser should possible by avoided though - in the next breath she suggested I use 'ass-hole cream' on my mouth wrinkles. WTF!</div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px">One thing she mentioned though which did make me feel better was that the perfect breast should measure 21cm from the dip at the bottom of the neck to the middle of the nipple. Well, I measure 20cm so things could be worse. If I ever get round to having surgery they will be so high up I might look like Posh!</div><div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px">I think I have now found the best bikini shape for me.
