    Are There Any Men Who Do Not Talk Much Left?

    I personally have always been a quiet-loving person. I hate loud noises and places. And I have a lot more fun standing or sitting around with friends and chatting in a quiet restaurant or a private room at a bar or something, rather than in some noisy, pulsating nightclub where my ears feel...

    Walking Sticks & Canes.

    A guy at my local flea-market has had one of these telescope-sticks on sale at his stall for YEARS and nobody has ever bought it: Today I decided to bite the bullet and bought it :)

    I'm kicking myself for passing up the chance to buy a 1910 edition of Mrs. Beeton's Household Management. But I did get a 'consolation prize', which was a 1980s reprint of the original. It'll be a handy historical reference for my writings.

    Hey I was on TV today {DelMonico Hatters}

    Jeff it was a lovely video to watch. I enjoyed it very much. Three generations of the Delmonico family running the same shop. What a treasure!

    My acquisitions from the Sunday flea-market: I didn't buy this. I bought the final bobbin, which fits into the little rack on the bottom left. The box is now 99% complete! (one piece still missing, if I ever find it).

    What Are You Reading

    Vintage Sunglasses

    If it were at all practical for me to wear standalone sunglasses (and sadly, it ain't), then I'd love a pair of Aviators. They're so simple and sleek. I love them! I hate things that are cluttered and overdecorated.

    'Child soldiers of WW2'

    Wish I could watch this, all the way over here in the Antipodes. But it looks fascinating. And congratulations with the book. It sounds like a fascinating and under-researched subject.

    At what weather temp is it time to put fur felt to sleep for the summer?

    Anything above 25'c and I'd be wearing my Panama or boater or a soft cap. Felt hats are for colder weather.
