I thought I'd create this 'Off-Topic' thread for anyone who has stumbled across a site that others may find entertaining or interesting - though mainly to post a link to a blog that brightened up my morning.

Anyway, I was reading an article in the Guardian this morning by professional Brummie Adrian Chiles, who was struggling with an article in the Tatler magazine about basically the etiquette of how to remain posh during Covid. Although it wasn't the article that amused me that much but rather a link in the comments section to a blog that had been set up to expose an earlier trend of so-called posh people wearing red trousers to demonstrate they were obviously of superior breeding stock. OK, I probably should warn members that the title of the blog has gratuitously resorted to using the f-word as an adjective but nevertheless the quality of the 'investigative' photos and descriptive captions had me laughing out loud!

Here's the link to the somewhat class conscious blog entitled Look at my f***ing red trousers - As someone fond of curating, I also particularly liked the detail of categorising the wearers as Toff, Hipster, Lunatic, 'Notable wearer' and 'In McDonalds'...

Speaking of Adrian Chiles, I can highly recommend this book. Ostensibly about WBA, but will appeal to all footy supporters with a magnificent ending.

Werder,

The Red Trousers fair cracked me up. We see quite a lot in North Norfolk.

UTB,

John
