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?

    • And I replied: Mandelson and Trump have much in common. They are both shallow, vulgar and vain. They both fetishise wealth and power, irrespective of who holds it or how it was accumulated. They were both close friends and associates of the late Jeffrey Epstein and have moved in the same circles, as Ghislaine Maxwell’s address book allegedly confirms. Recognising another who is utterly transactional and lacking in a moral compass, there’s every chance of “Petie” fitting right in Mar-a-Largo. That Starmer couldn’t anticipate that Mandelson’s past behaviour would be problematic just proves how inept this government is.
    • Can't agree with that because he is a superb communicator - a really smart and  smooth talker. He studied PPE at Oxford and was communications director for Labour for many years.  Setting aside the "minor"  indiscretions during his time in government he has all the smoothness and ability to flatter Trump without appearing obsequious. Plus he can manage and exploit  Trump’s ego. He is highly polished socially, comfortable in elite circles, skilled at making personal connections. He can flatter and disarm, which is a useful tactic with Trump, who responds well to personal respect and praise. As a former EU Trade Commissioner and Cabinet minister, Mandelson understands international relations, trade, and diplomacy. He knows how to frame issues in terms of “wins” that Trump could claim credit for. I honestly hope that he survives.  
    • He is toast  he should never have been appointed  and starmer flannelling about all of this shows exceptionally poor judgement  a disgrace all around 
    • Like everyone, super impressed with Leon. Came when he said he would. Gave great advice. Job done really quickly and efficiently. Perfect. Highly recommend
