Not immediately?
How about if i say "Can anyone spot the potental problem with this bikini, bearing in mind the bit around your neck and the bit around your back tie up"?
Getting warmer?
How about if you factor in a spa jet that sprays water onto your neck and shoulders and right onto the knot?
Did you know that a jet of water can undo a bow?
Well, from first hand experience I can tell you that it can. And it did.
And I was this close from showing a 50-something, tattooed, beer-bellied bald guy my tits while I was at the gym today.
This close.
Fortunately I looked down and noticed that there was a string floating where string ought not to be. The tie had come completely undone and I probably noticed with a couple of seconds to spare before I flashed him.
I don't know what it is about me and my gym, but I keep having humiliating/near-humiliating moments there.
At least I went though...that makes a change.

Even if you made a super-duper, triple-threat, hangman's noose knot, would it still come undone? Probably not, but then, there'd be no way of you getting out of the garment...LOL.
What if you change the top to a sports bra or a tube top?
And I must've been away longer than I thought, but I like your new layout. The blue and black work terrificly together!

David - Thank you, I decided it was time for something a little more stylish and I love the teal-blue colour.
I could switch to a tube top I guess, but I really like the tie-up bikinis. Or I did until today. I'm going to either have to perfect my super-duper, triple-threat hangman's noose knot or find a new style of swimwear!

You didn't want to show him our nipples? Selfish.

Ah, the dangers of the two piece.

See - that's why I couldn't risk a gym, it's just too risky. Good for you for sticking it out. I'd much rather leap around in my living room with the curtains drawn.
That's a very nice bikini by the way. Bet you look right fit in it!

Clarissa - You think? I just thought he could at least buy me a coffee first! ;o) x
Deb - Indeed! I went again today and managed to avoid any catasrophes so hopefully it was a one off.
Roses - I know what you mean, unfortunately our living room is too small for leaping about. It is a lovely bikini and thank you for the compliment but I actually don't have this exact one, although I may buy it now! This was just to illustrate the type of thing I've got. Mine are one in black, one in white, one in a sort of fawny/mocha brown and one in khaki - all that are crocheted and tie-sidey and all out of either Bay Trading or Primark and about a fiver each. I love them, I just need to make sure my knots are good and tight!

First that is a SUPER cute bikini! Love it! I'm glad you didn't flash him but I'm sure it would have more than made his YEAR!

With most guys once past their mid twenties they've seen enough breasts in newspapers, mags etc and real life to be fairly desensitised. And yet manage to stay fascinated by cleavage.
Glad you survived your wardrobe malfunction though.

I must admit, I've never met a straight guy who wasn't into breasts, cleavage, handfulls etc. no matter how old!

Ruby - Thank you, I do love a nice tie side bikini. I don't know why I prefer them to the others, I think they just fit me better. I think it probably would have made his year. It looked like it had been at least 35 years since he'd seen a twenty-something pair of breasts!
Lucy - Thanks - I'm glad too :o)
Roses - No, me neither. Its all they're into really. Even those that claim they aren't. In reality they are. As a flat chested girl, its one of the challenges I face in dating situations!

Well, now that you've publicized the danger of the spa jet, all the 50-something, beer-bellied guys would be loitering near those in the hope of catching something titillating from the less diligent women. LOL!

Kenneth - I'll be prepared!
