Re: The Duchess of Devonshire's Ball.
I know a very childish joke about the Duchess of Devonshire's balls...
Hardly surprising, is it?
Using my very good friend Trip's time machine I would have gone as Henry Scott Tuke's 'Youth in White Trousers'.

Or 'Henry Allen in his Cricketing Whites' (1904).

More than likely I'd be a gatecrasher. Some Footman would have let me in the back way.
