Last weekend I accepted a challenge to wear a conical bra and post it as my avatar picture. I made two stipulations: At least 50 people had to want to see it and that one of them provide said article. Well, the 50 people have been found and I am now ready to have my photograph taken. However, where is the bra? The silence on that aspect of the challenge has been deafening. I am coming to the conclusion that this is going to be a self help job. So this is my final call. If someone, preferably in the UK, is willing to lend it to one oversized p1kef1sh, please would they come forward now. Otherwise, I shall take matters into my own hands and start to make my own on Monday. People are asking where the photo is. I shall not let them, or anyone else down. But if you have any ideas about how the thing might look perhaps you would be so kind as to let me have them over the weekend.

Has anyone thought of going to Madonna's (yes the singer) website and ordering one from there? She made them famous again a couple of years ago and the fashion trend of wearing your underwear OUTSIDE your clothes was born. She's all into marketing our Madonna is, so I'd give her a 'ring' and see what she suggests! LOL She'd probably bring a whole film crew to you P1ke and make a video featuring a new song! LOL YOu'll end up on You-tube, you realize that? LOL

Madonna also lives quite close to Salisbury. I could be round to her in 30 minutes!! I think that this will end up as a home made job. I shall see what bright ideas come in and take it from there. My lovely pumpkinjam has volunteered to help me make one. Bless her.

Have you tried looking in a fancy dress shop? You should be able to find some kind of 'Maddonna' esq bra. (I'm really looking forward to seeing the piccy!) :P

lol...ask Madonna...I think she wore one of those conical bras (long back)! Maybe she'd be willing to lend you her bra...and save you the trouble of making one! I'd have shipped you one if I had it....but I don't:( I sure hope someone gets you one...I'd like to see it myself (rather than you in one..lol)!

Tassles? Hmmm. Cyn suggested two party hats. That sounds like a cheat to me. But if that's want people want. Who am I to complain.

Maybe Goodie's idea is a good one. But I want tassles for sure! It'll be sooooo cute!

I like the idea of putting 2 party hats into an oversized bra. Then glue some tassles on the points of the bra. You could likely find an oversized bra at a 2nd hand clothing store fairly reasonably priced. heee heee

I would love to help you but unfortunately a conical bra is not something I have ever owned. I will be glad to attempt to make one for you if you can not get one another way! I'd be glad to do anything to see this. :P

Goodies idea with the coffee cups pretty good. They must be available somewhere as I saw a Madonna tribute act the other night and she had one on failing that some improvisation, large bra from charity shop as you said large to fit and two cones that you get chips in then cover the whole in gold or silver material for the effect, even the fancy dress shops might have or if you know anyone that does theatre productions their prop department may have something. Hope they come up with a bra for you though just for the pic and the laugh. Ellie :D

I have thought about fancy dress shops etc. There is a lingerie shop in Salisbury. If were to have the nerve to go in, I wonder if they would have such a thing to let me borrow for 10 minutes. I suspect however, that I'd end up down at the Nick! LOL

Man bra?? - I was looking for something else entirely when I came across this photo. I immediately thought of p1kef1sh!
I was just thinking today how I haven't seen you in a while, although you have logged in recently. I used to always see your shining verbal countenance in one discussion after another. Well, I decided to see if you were still active and then remembered that about the time that this discussion was relatively new, I came across a photo I had wanted to share with you. But, I just couldn't figure out the proper time or place. Well, here is your discussion on the conical bra, people have been commenting on it recently, so it's on your profile page for me to see, and I think NOW is the time. I had planned to ask you if this might be a long lost cousin of yours. Anyway, I hope you are well.

LOL. Thank you. I'm here but not here if you see what I mean. I only reply to my own discussion now and am not posting any new ones for the time being. I hope that all is well with you too.

Well, good! I hope your temporary abstention is not due to any of the trolling that is sometimes done around here and that you'll return in full feather and bright attire, not to mention quick wit! Thanks for letting me know!
