(Bumblebee @ May 09 2010,16:26) There is no secret Chinaman, it's something a select few of us are blessed with , and that is the luck and charm of the Irish.
haha to that
I have just spent the best part of 2 hours on a Sunday 'catching up' on this entire thread (I'm a bit slower than TT ).. and it beats reading the colour supplements ...
I liked this part :
€œYou€™re a shit tailor, strips don€™t go with stripes€ said Donnykey Versace, with Jimslim Saint Laurent adding to the couture advice €œYou got not fashion sense my good man€. The bewildered tailor on Soi Diana had a stunned look on his face having encountered first hand these two connoisseurs of the rag trade. Sometimes €œAlright geezer, would you like a suit?€ just doesn€™t cut any ice with the experts.
That's also a favourite hobby of mine whenever I encounter these guys, as well as the "Sir, you are a very lucky man" scenarios... It's great fun to fuck with their heads I can see why JS will miss his afternoon ramblings...
BB I have enjoyed your 'parting shot' immensely. You set the tone at the outset and the thread has been permeated by that slightly melancholy flavour..But what a ride and great stories and great pictorial memories. It's just that generosity of spirit that makes TLF such a great place to linger...even when/if we have 'left the scene'...
Therapy for you and your dear reader.
Hope to see your star shine again very soon...in whatever hemisphere.
Be lucky old boy and thanks a million
Did you exchange a walk-on part in the war for a lead role in a cage
Thank you very much Guydesavoy for your very flattering and kind words. I think a new adventure somewhere in this wonderful world awaits in September if all goes to plan.
I'm a stranger in paradise... All lost in a wonderland. A stranger in paradise...
