My basic point remains the same - Amazon is dictating what they think is important. Does it not worry you that you are getting a totally biased view of the world. I don't have a biased view of the world. I have my own views. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Peterson Posted June 9, 2020 #152 Share Posted June 9, 2020 I might be missing something, but I don’t see bush hats and baler twine (for the trousers) specifically referred to in the formal dress code. Doubtless an oversight? Or just part of my national costume...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I'm sure they are worn, just not by anyone I personally socialise or work with. We're more T-shirt and jeans kinda people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When did this go from cruise chat to character dissemination? I assure you, I am very well educated, with multiple degrees and a very good job, I am not some mindless young idiot who absorbs the ramblings of madmen.

Maybe they have been going longer than I knew then cos they were big in our era and if johns 14 year old granddaughter has some then that’s been least 15 years since I got mine.

Off to quiz hubby now I definitely don’t believe your 96! (That’s what you said earlier or am I going crackers) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
