There you go.

Besides the hat and the cane it looks like your picture in the gallery already.

Don't wear the coat on the right as I'm wearing my covert coat that night.

Not very masculine looking are they? Too much the air of the lighter side of ones feminine inner self and a little too Noel Coward for my tastes…… I'll dress down me thinks

I thought the 1930s was the Depression era.

You are absolutely right of course Willow, but after midnight verbal intercourse with some members can be a little bland. I had intended that another individual would have taken it up and then gone on to argue the matter but boredom got the better of me and I entered into discourse on the matter of gay brides etc.

Anybody with the slightest whiff of education about them knows that the world wide depression started after the Wall St crash in 1929.

19.20, 19.30, anytime with you bores me never mind after midnight.
