If you are obese and have spindly bird legs, do not wear bermudas...protect the environment. I won't even mention the matching blue socks or the red brothel creepers because most of you instinctively know better.

Get in shape, do some squats, run a few kilometers a day...then wear Bermudas to the premier mens fashion show in the world.

Oh my.... :D

Cheers

Knee socks, or bare ankles, please. Don't split the difference.

'Split the difference'? - It looks as though he has split the Higgs' boson! Isn't he the fellow who said that Michael Douglas has no dress sense?

I never thought that delirium tremens would be this bad.

    No, no, no. Dali is just a waking nightmare.

    Or, more poignantly, this version:

    - bearing in mind that 15th June 2012 was the 60th anniversary of the murder, by a spurned suitor, of Polish SOE agent Krystyna Skarbek-Granville GM, OBE, Croix de Guerre (AKA Christine Granville); especially since Krystyna’s prison-reforming great-great uncle, Fryderyk Florian Skarbek, was Chopin’s godfather.

    For the reasons illustrated above I can't bring myself to wear shorts in a business environment, so I wore a very modest suit from a very cheap Hong Kong tailor when I went to Pitti last month.

    My Goodness - that brings back the memories of some Irish friends that I had in London over twenty years ago and my foolishness in one evening believing that I could skull the stout in equal step with them. I recall that, afterwards, while I waited for one of them to pour me into a cab, I steadied myself on a lamp-post in Coventry Street, in the company of three green mice, five orange rats, twelve yellow pigeons and the obligatory pink elephant, :mrgreen:
