Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Wifey was refused to be served by a stall holder in Covent Garden Market.

And the reason?

Well, this was the late 80s and she was merely wearing a sheepskin coat. I think it must have been the late 80s which was the start of the ant-fur campaigns.

Go to Venice in the winter when it's a bit nippy. This is Italy and it's 'fur coat season'. You will see hundreds of wealthy women tourists from all over Europe wearing long coats and matching hats made from farmed mink, beaver, etc, etc.

As Haystack says, "It's a bit like wearing leather shoes."

Of course, some women do lots of shagging, but only with the one very grateful and very appreciative bloke.

Doc,

I've never been approached by anybody who has criticised me for wearing a fur. I have, however, been approached by other women on numerous occasions saying how much they love my coat and that if they had one like it they'd be too afraid to wear it out to the shops.

Try going to Canada, where my parents lived for about 20 years. It is often 40 below and sometimes 60 below in Sask. Fur is by far the best thing to wear. Fur lined mukluk boots, fur lined coats, fur coats, fur hats, fur gloves. Everyone wears them.

Wifey used to take her mink coat and jacket to Banff (Canada) but wouldn't take it to any of the resorts around Salt Lake City (USA).

Personally speaking, I do think they would have been accepted in the USA but, although we went skiing many times to both areas, she never did feel comfortable taking them there.

And she did take and like the compliments too, Hils. :-)

Just like leather shoes....ain't they? I do believe in farmed stuff but I'm very against wild furs.

I do like the look of a good beaver , mostly hairless now though .

I'm sure we've tapped into the Kardashians here .

If you've had it, flaunt it.

It does come to mind.

Ooh you are awfull Fred , but I like you .

VICTIM,

I take it you're not a metrosexual then, and manscaping is alien to you?

Down boy!

Watch it shorty .

I am not a fan of the South American style. I prefer the wilds of the jungle

Bushy .

He feels more at home in the jungle!

I know he is atavistic, but how far back can a throwback go?

Are you good at crosswords Fred .

B. awful!

Not good at, or for anything.

So I am often told.





Ask the waiter!

Don't send us a picture, unless it is censored!

truly beautiful place in all senses and i know the food will be every bit as good
