Genuine Harris Tweed jackets never wear out, my first, bought in 1960 lasted 22 years, the lining was replaced 3 times. Hence being worn through many fashion eras. Frau Malty never had it off her back. Corduroy trousers, if they're good enough for Jonathan Miller, they're good enough for me. Must be worn with suitable sturdy brogues.<BR/>Elberry, a most suitable shag is Balkan Sobranie, failing that then grass is OK.maltyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02936465848907794425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526736757651414061.post-23223212845282595872008-07-10T22:04:00.000+01:002008-07-10T22:04:00.000+01:00Sirrah, i bought a briar pipe in Oxford this week ...Sirrah, i bought a briar pipe in Oxford this week and am experimenting with it...soon i shall be puffing away at work (in a hospital) and causing awe and amazement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526736757651414061.post-47053293992831555582008-07-10T00:54:00.000+01:002008-07-10T00:54:00.000+01:00I remember when old professors smoked pipes and wo...I remember when old professors smoked pipes and wore tweed jackets with leather elbow patches. Now no one smokes and young professors dress all in black and try to look arty. (Old ones have horrible sartorial taste, still running to tweeds and rumpled cotton.) Harder and harder to tell professions by clothes, especially since just about everyone (in America anyway) wears jeans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526736757651414061.post-87868372731519908592008-07-09T19:39:00.000+01:002008-07-09T19:39:00.000+01:00MacArthur didn't need any accessories to look like...MacArthur didn't need any accessories to look like a prat, he was one.
