I shall doff my Edward Bates -Sandown cap , in a jolly and excitable manner.

Since without a, hat may I take off my, right foot Church captoe and , with it smash, a Corona bottle  in, celebration?

Twitching navy wool flat cap, humbly

Horace is the shit.  Terry Lean is a fucking nobody who has nothing better to do than jack off and spend his days on clothing forums.

I went 'over there' (tradland) and have been reading old posts by Horace.  I am impressed.  Thank you for all your contributions there as well as here.  Hope you have a happy new year with lots of champaigne.

Thanks chums, I try to provide these suckers with an education but like Socrates, they want me to imbibe the Hemlock.  They can't handle the truth.

And this I bump because my name is too much 'out there' just now.

Horace is the poster who inspires what I do on the Net., even if what I do is not what Horace would do himself.

American Traditional style is what Horace posts about in his well considered way. He always has. It's his subject.

I merely rant, froth & wave my Grosgrain trimmed Madras flag like a nutter.

Traditional American style, Classic American style, TNSIL - But not what "Trad" has become.

Inspired by Horace I'd like to start again. Let "Trad" carry on. We like Traditional American style.

well, It's the internet. he said a couple of unpleasant things about me. the hell with him.
