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?

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
