They were lots of fun.<br /><br />This thing was what we called in the army, FUBAR. I'm also amazed at how bad the clothes were (show can bee seen on the P Ellis website). I think the terrier group at Westminster looks a whole lot better.<br /><br />DB- You're right. The area I hung out in was by the photogs. Great place to watch the crowd who could have done with a chapter or two from Emily Post before arriving. <br /><br />Cat- No, it's not. But I suppose to some it is and they know how to push their way through a crowd. <br /><br />Belle- I was the photogs. The coolest of the cool and most looked bored outta their minds.<br /><br />Cheesemold - You got back to 'D' fast enough.<br /><br />DMW- You can't weat a hoodie and a beret.tintinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652066200071703445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-88855880086876638202010-02-16T13:37:50.620-05:002010-02-16T13:37:50.620-05:00So now tell us what YOU wore?

Or are going to one. Once again, I have to ask my dreaded question: Does anyone dress for any occasion anymore?<br /><br />But I don't blame you for looking around at the real show going on. It's never on stage.<br /><br />Another fashion curmudgeon alert: Hoodies should be banned from any non-athletic activity; they might as well be the cargo shorts of winter. <br /><br />Harrumph.<br /><br />-DBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1349290550527925310.post-84567372601509351872010-02-16T08:23:02.626-05:002010-02-16T08:23:02.626-05:00tintin: what you do for your art...it looks like a...tintin: what you do for your art...it looks like absolute torture to me.Brummagem Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998868549766033751noreply@blogger.com
