No, can you enlighten us Idlewind?
Even being a troll requires some intelligence and effort.
Squire shop 1969. The best there was. Forget your stuffy old mail order catalogues. McGeorge, Wren, Sebago. That was style.
Nothing to do with Mods and nothing to do with all that worthy American fancy dress with proles trying to dress to the manor born. It was all about good looks and quality. Expensive I grant you but never elitist.
^LOL
I don't think it's Andy. Expensive - that's an obscenity to him.
That's very subtle of you, Yuca.
Well if Jim is being true to his word, he really isn't too good at the moment. So I'm guessing it has to be the beast from the east(midlands)
I hate to state the obvious, but he could even be . . . someone new!!!!

The lack of typos is very Andyesque, but The Squire Shop 1969? Not really Andy's field.
Andy in the past has mentioned The Squire Shop in glowing terms.
The style of the writing is one distinct expression of desperate ego need.
There can be only one....
This is what I'm thinkin'.
"I think it is Jim. He galvanises the forum with these fictitious attacks from the outside. ...I saw one of Idlewild's post change from being 'hoho'. to 'you are a hoho ' and no edit notification came up".
Oo Bop Sh'bam, last week
Some individuals have a certain style, and can only operate within the confines of the style. Andy is most definitely the case, even if he was trying to be some other character, he would end up being Andy. It's not necessarily a bad thing, Kerouac was the same. Not that there's any stylistic relationship between the two.
It was in Andy's style and very much in Andy's style. There can be only one....
Yeah but I think hJim is undergoing treatment at the mo.
I know there is much flappery that goes on at the top in the UK Ivy power struggle, and we all get caught up in what, on the whole are personal issues between people. And I can't begin to trust what Andy has told me, as much as those he has told me who not to trust. What puzzled me is, to my knowledge I've not had to entrust anything to anyone on here, it is all rather odd, and I suggest those who just want a catch up and a chat about clothes continue to do so, whilst those that feel the need to bolster their very odd little psyches, carry on doing that too, but just don't expect anyone to give a toss..
It really is a load of bullshit, just enjoy the clothes. People with nothing have to hold on to something don't they. I got over acting this way I think by the time I was 12, how some people become so fucking stunted in their development I will never know.

It's not Jim, he's not been online recently, plus it's too close to Andy's mo; no one can quite replicate it. Thankfully.
