Oh, MrBen, with a name like that, I would have thought you'd be well into diverse fashions. Which begs the question: why, oh why, oh why are you always so very perplexed by other people's attire?


Get thee into the cupboard and come yourself out a cowboy / astronaut / frolicsome wench.


Meantime, consider this: http://www.vogue.co.uk/blogs/the-vogue-blog/2011/09/17/the-cats-pyjamas---j-w-anderson-show


Pyjamas are the very thing (at least they were last year - ED's never been the land of the early adopter).

I saw a woman in PJ's on LL today. She looked very tired/hungover/fed up. I'm cool with that; in fact I think it should be a condition of wearing PJ's in public. Cleanly shaved or freshly made up or perfectly hairstyled suggests an effort has been made, and effort and PJ's don't go together.

I'll do the last one of those if you meet me in Peckham Aldi in your rollers in some furry man made PJ's with penguins all over them and your sheepskin ugg-a-likes.

Me? Uggs? The very idea! I'd sooner don a pair of Crocs. But I'll put on a onesie and my agent provocateur marabou heels and meet you by the Monster Munch (emergency hangover rations...)

Not strictly "to the shops" but the bloke down the road sports the following on a regular basis:


Stripey PJ bottoms pulled up over his navel


Vest, but usually a bare chest


Bottle lens glasses


Brown slip on leather shoes (chisel toe)


No socks



All this whilst standing outside his house in full view & smoking a Benson.

    • But hang on a minute, did no-one in the Reeves family check that the letting agent had actually done it? #thismaybehowthestorycontinuestodevelop As anyone who has ever dealt with an estate agent knows...trust them with nothing...
    • I saw this sparrowhawk bring down a pigeon in Upland Rd today, a few houses short of Eric's bakery. Nature red in tooth and claw in East Dulwich!
    • Completely agree.  I always go to them for any keys I need cutting and have used them when I've had trouble with a front door lock.  They never opt for an expensive solution if a serviceable alternative exists.  They are friendly, helpful and polite.  They restore my faith in humanity every time I use them.
    • I can think of several possible motivations for your writing that, but can't tell  which.
