Oxford Bags (early 70's) became Birmingham Bags (Birmos) when the side pockets were added (mid 70's), it was de rigeur to complete the 'look' with a 3 star jumper and stack shoes...nice

Nope, they went in the punk driven Great Flare Cull of 1977

I know a girl who is tres fashion forward, and the envy of all my other female friends for her ability to pull off any kind of 'look'. And even I, a happily married man, would have to admit she's pretty easy on the eye. Saw her in a body suit the other day. Looked bloody ridiculous. So ladies, be advised.


Mind you, I'm rocking a pair of flares this season so what do I know?

    • Hi .. I’ve still got the  bike lock 😀
    • I think the only way to sort this is to ban loud fireworks for private sale (and preferably ban fireworks altogether except for public displays). I don't know whether that has implications I'm not aware of eg I have no idea how many people are involved in firework manufacture.
    • Very happy to recommend Tommy Rooney's excellent work again. He's been servicing my boiler for years now, but this time he swiftly fixed a leaky radiator valve. I put out a call on Friday and it was repaired - and improved - by Monday evening. I asked him if he had an opinion about my other radiators, and he reassured me as he pointed out the leaky bathroom rad was a non-standard length, which was why it caused problems. There followed a brief but detailed history of improvements in regulations for valves and fittings over the years, so that I could understand precisely what the issue was. How many plumbers will do that for you? "I've just got a memory for weird things," says Tommy modestly.
    • Wanted 2 x Adult and 1 x Children tickets for Dulwich fireworks tonight please!
