I was walking along High Holborn this morning when I saw a chap sporting a top-coat styled almost as a frock coat: d/b, velvet collar, satin (I think) lapels. Was this chap a londonlounge member?

Full points!

Perhaps he was coming from or going to Highgate to pay a soul his respects?

Come to think of it, maybe not, as Highgate is quite a long walk from High Holborn.

From whence he was coming and whither he was going: Good for him, I say!!
