currently trending ITT: ties that are not quite truly soporific.

That's my answer then! Of course, I have the usual shepherd's check, glen plaid, black and navy grenadines etc. but I usually think of soporific ties as being not too busy, repetively small-patterned silks with a minimum of colour variation. And I really don't have any of those amongst my 50-odd ties. So I guess I don't have a proper entry for this challenge...

Perhaps some aren't aware of the SF meaning? If so, this might help.
In any event, it provides examples.

FlyingMonkey, if the tie is the same as in your WAYWRN post today, I think it qualifies.

I think all posts so far would qualify, but some were superiorly soporific, others, not as much.

Holdfast, you're gone my friend. My apologies.
Monkey, i'll allow that if you want to re-post it.
I'll be sitting the challenge out unfortunately as it's Friday morning already and with the end of the financial year looming I'm chained to the desk for the next 2 days, and quite open necked as a result.
Keep the entries coming.
