Hi Tom, that was very generous of you. Much appreciated.

Not a problem.. One of the few that sends decent offers once registered

The Doug Neidermeyer cravat/ascot/dickie turned up today. Quite pleased with the way it sits.

The cardi came with a really badly emroidered leopard head on the left breast, which quite frankly made it unwearable. Had a look for something that was big enough to sew over the puke-inducing panther, and found an old Piaggio badge.

Photo said 79-80. Lot of of mixed up youth then hadn’t quite the difference between mod, skin and or they had been originally. Most scooterists started life as one or the other or both like moi.

Someone on FB recognised the two skinhead types in the background and reckons it's 83/84ish.

Admit it Andy, you would love to still have enough hair left on your head to be able to wear a barrette/hair-clip, even ironically!

I seem to remember greatcoat-style coats (double breasted, peak lapel) as a fairly mainstream thing around 1972/3, had one myself for 'best'

I would have described them as frockcoats, greatcoats being longer.
