Be well,

P.S. The plus fours would have taken less time to alter, if I hadn't allowed my darling husband to try it himself first!

My dear lady, I fancy that there is a spot of selective quotation going on, that is not quite what I said. Is it?

First, you look smashing Jamie (aside from that tartan flat cap). Please, buy a tweed cap.

Secondly, and especially now that Rex has shown a mock-up photo of himself in an old book, I enjoyed the irony of him saying Jamie had lost himself in time (given the great mustache and beard Rex sports from a time almost forgotten).

Actually, it's King George V.

Well, George's father was Edward.

As for look-alikes, there's George's cousin, Nicholas. I can hardly tell them apart, but yes, they both had splendid facial hair.

Regards,
Rex.

I'm loving this thread.

Indeed, not to mention Kaiser Bill. I must admit to missing the family resemblance but I should have recognised the more streamlined apearance.

First Jock Scot tells me to wear my tweed bucket hat....

.... and now Scotus tells me to go forth and buy a flat cap!

What a grand thread this has been!

Cheers

It must be one of those trans-Atlantic misunderstandings, must it not? But I am not at all sure that I actually told you to wear that infamous bucket hat.
