I'm going to be wearing a blazer like that on Saturday night - hop sack, in a rust.
Great pic.

Re: The Ivy Shop
I saw a bugle in a second hand shop in Surbiton today £30. Also one of those casual jackets with lapped seams. I did not go in to inspect the vent. Both items side by side - a bit J Simons .

Excellent.
And that's how it was here in dear old Blighty... And it's not a lost world now either. Ivy still gets talked over here by some loud and clear.

My neighbour, 90 this month, former RAF armourer.
"I can tell you exactly where I was and what I was doing on D-Day".
Me (agog): "What? Where?"
"In Yorkshire, eating dates from a box".
They later flew them over Dresden, to see the destruction they'd caused.
"It wasn't very nice".
