Re: 2015 Jewish Book week John Simon's event.

I'm always up for a punch up....

Not as quick as I used to be, but still a dirty fighter, he he...

But in all seriousness, let's just raise a glass Brothers... no more...no less... we’re all still a massive minority on here as far as the bigger picture goes…and whatever our take or angle on the style is…we should all embrace the more fluffy common bonds…


Think I am pretty loyal mind tbh

I'll add American Classics to my list too.... Rachel & Adam I will FOREVER HAVE TIME FOR...spend ages in there gassing too!!

Maybe cos I don't tie meeslf to one mast it helps me to be more appreciative?

I dunno... or care enough to go off on a diatribe tbh....

I'll add Sam at Stylecreep too - a sterling fella, albeit on a different clothes angles...but the principles remain!!

Stuarts in my manor....I salute ya!...again...a lot of utter shite in there...but some gems and that's all I'd ask of any emporium..

Cinch/Red Wing Shop/Drakes/Jermyn St… You’re all getting some CAPTAIN LURVE…..



I'd like to also give a big shout out to Lurpak Spreadable over the years... be it on my soldiers or re-enacting Last Tango in Paris…

To quote Barry Davis to a degree ……”Look at her face….just LOOK AT HER FACE……..”


He came he saw he gave the WANKER SIGN! Moved on from Talk Bollocks now as it's well shite innit and y'all look MINGIN'..

AC - I agree. You see a lot of comments about WASPS and old money, but when you start digging you learn that their may be three generations old perhaps four. If your fortune was made at the beginning of the 20th century is that really old? Doesn't seem all that old to me.

I had heard the term blue blood was due to silver toxicity from the wealthy using sliver plates and cutlery. Consuming silver causes irreversible pigmentation of the skin with a grey/blue hue. Hence the term blue blood.

Re: 2015 Jewish Book week John Simon's event.

I'll try to make it,  probably best to make it a post talk drink so we don't get thrown out, for causing trouble at the back?

If I don't have to spend more than 200€ on travel expenses I'll see if I can make it, too...

I've got tickets but may be working that night.
I'll put my tickets up for grabs on here if I can't make it.

I had intended to make this,  even arranged to stay with my sister and her boyfriend,  but my missus has been asked to work at short notice and her parents are busy so I'm staying in with my son instead.

Re: 2015 Jewish Book week John Simon's event.

I'd be happy about an update on this! Is there a Video of the event or a transscription or could someone who attended it give us a detailed account?
