Cool as fuck. Who was it who said raincoats aren't cool? Ah yes, our man in the southern tropics, Nicholas.
Having been just a little critical of some of the images in the Ivy Look I am compelled to say that the pic of the London Fog must be one of the most beautiful I have seen. The 'watermark' of the girl is exquisite and the bottom button left undone, the correct sleeve length, the hat - just superb!

Very chic to be coughing your lungs up, is it?
Maybe; in theory. I loved the image of James Bond, on eighty a day. I couldn't help wondering, though, in the books, how he managed so much physical activity, such as scrapping and shagging anything with hair on it. The lefties, I think, have driven it underground. Anything that comes from my mother-in-law (including, say, jam tarts) reek of smoke. Clean living? Maybe just as well.

Is that a trad on cloakroom duty?
You've got a great blog, Adam, lots of amazing pictures! BTW, someone is copying most of your and Weejun's stuff for the German Scene forum...
The Georgie Fame picture was first posted by Dean Rudland or by Neil Henderson, I think... sorry, I couldn't find a link, as I had it in a file without origins...

/\ I think I've got a good idea what Georgie is thinking in that 2nd pic.

^ Me too. The Post Office Tower one is great. What a venue! My parents went to the restaurant there once in the early 70's. From what I gather the government of the day had to grant a unique dispensation with regard to the fire regulations to allow the lift access to be the sole means of escape in the event of something untoward happening up on top.
