"Lord Grantham" :D


Thanks CP, tbh I had to google it!

LOL, never seen an episode neither has the Duchess. In fact I was only chatting to @upr_crust about it over lunch the other day and I was certainly at a disadvantage

Thanks (I think) :D

Thanks for the comment :)
I have a little bit a problem to see the right jacket length, because of my hight ( 6"7) much seems to short for me.

A full length shot would help a lot, but in the picture you provided it doesn't look short. Any shorter and it would be a problem though. Jacket length is one of those funny things, though. There is no set rules that is right for everyone other than it should at least cover your rear. Proportionately to the rest of your body it may indeed be too short.

Yes, I’ve never encountered any menswear there that struck me as a must have (I can’t picture either of us in Tracht or Landhausmode). Even Knize is surviving mostly on its reputation from imperial times (though the store is still worth visiting for its exquisite interior).
Actually, I was rather hoping you’d returned with a certain Vermeer I’ve always admired from the Kunsthistorischen Museum, but perhaps I overestimate your travel budget …

Cheers,

My travel budget would not be the issue - it would be the size of my luggage, in order to hold "The Art of Painting" - it's rather large for an average suitcase. Never mind what effect my filching might have on my popularity with Interpol. :satisfied:

I watch the show mostly to see the English countryside and parts of the country's history. The clothes aren't too bad either ;)

@Claghorn are those johnston and murphy's or bostonians or something? I know they both had good lines in the past and that medallion looks familiar. Apologies if I'm totally mistaken.

Allen Edmonds my grandma bought me freshman year of college. They got little wear their first four years. Heavy wear their 6th-8th years. Moderate wear (and better treatment) after joining SF.
