Darned belts and trousers!

It takes me ages to put the belt on the right way up. I keep ending up with the prong on the underside and thus unable to put through a belt hole.

The trouble also is my belly gets in the way of seeing the holes ! Trousers themselves are awkward things too. I recently went to a christening and got a new pair of trousers for it. The 44 inch was a little tight so went for the 46 inch which was too loose even with a belt. Luckily the trousers didn’t drop to my ankles till I got home . That was just over 5 weeks ago. Last week I bought another pair of trousers this time 44 inch . This pair even with a belt feel quite loose. So one pair tried 44= a little tight and one pair bought 44= loose even with a belt.

Is it any wonder I don’t like buying clothes. Normally I buy elasticated waist trousers but whilst they are ok for everyday slumming it they are not that good for special occasions. I bought the latest pair for my father’s visit Wednesday just gone.

How was your father’s visit?

It went ok although I struggled to make conversation. A lot of it was my father and stepmother telling anecdotes about their life in the States which I had difficulty replying to .
