    Spear point collar shirts

    Edward, These arrived today, my first 2 Luxire shirts and I couldn't be more pleased. They were ordered on the 20th Feb and first arrived yesterday but I had to arrange re-delivery.

    Twickenham to Teddington by trolley bus

    Hi Miss H, Glad you enjoyed it. As it happens I was in Twickenham today and what is surprising is how recognisable, even after 80 yrs, so much of it is from this film, particularly if you look up above the modern shopfronts to the first floors and above. This is true of so much of the British...

    Twickenham to Teddington by trolley bus

    Film from 1931 of the first trolley bus to run between Twickenham and Teddington in South West London. I live in nearby Kingston and still remember trolley buses in the late 50s early 60s and the conductors/conductresses having to get out and use a very long pole to re-attach the the tall...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Must say it is unusual to have such good weather during Wimbledon fortnight, that's usually a cue for torrential rain. If any consolation I was prepared to go much higher, it looks like a great hat and you have to take opportunity when you can. I see a lot if hats I would like to bid on but the...

    Billy, You won't regret buying this hat, I have one it grey and it's one of my favourites. I'm also a member of the UK johnnyphi club having won a great Lee which looks very similar to this Adam but with a more usual ribbon treatment. But that was before Sterling did a nosedive, may be a...
