Pink trousers

I've rectified the link possibly since you tried, but it does - horrors - link to the Daily Wail, I wasn't entirely serious but maybe people who ask about pink trousers really do want them ?!
 
Actually the colour on offer is RUST not pink or red even.
Rust is far far more appropriate for most readers of this forum......:cool:

Yes, i do and i'm grateful for the link. BOGOFs on Pink Trousers are as rare as Sea Horses in Studland Bay!

I blame you lot. I don't know whether it's because I'm now (just) over 40, or because I finished my wooden Gentleman's Afternoon Racing Keelboat Flying Fifteen last year and I'm mixing with people (significantly) over 80, or because the Yachting forum is buzzing with tales of anodes and antifouling in preparation for the season when it will be time once again to head over to Cowes, what-o, for the weekend drinkies, and at least look like I might be able to blag my way into the Squadron whilst I'm there. Or it may be be because I've had the membership renewal for my dinghy club and would you believe it they are still allowing women in the bar so it's time to stand up for what is right and proper in this world. Or perhaps I've been spending too much time in London with work and I've been exposed to too many pink trousered, bearded, pocket squared hipsters riding their single speed bikes between pop-up craft ale vending establishments

Or it could be because there they were...last night...in TK Maxx (that well known Gentleman's Outfitters)...for the princely sum of £18.99...in all their scarlet glory...but yes, I am now the owner of some red yachting pantaloons!

I shall now book them in for a number of intensive sunbed sessions to get "that" patina matched only by a barn-find Jaaaaaaaaaaaag or a WW2 submarine captain's Rolex, ready for the perfect photo opportunity to get me on lookatmyf**kingredtrousers.blogspot.co.uk.

Toodle pip!
 
Weren't the Cherry Pickers (who definitely wore pink trousers) involved in some shenanigans during our last-but-one bout of open hostilities with Russia?

Pink trousers are de riguer, amongst the senior yachties of Lymington & was informed many years ago, that they were Artillery occifers walking out rig.

You are eminently qualified to wear the aforementioned garment. Congratulations, presumably a blue ensign will make an appearance shortly ?:D
 
As you can imagine, I not only have several pairs of pink trousers but the necessary blazers to go with them and the old school tie. There has to be a way of telling who its worth talking to and dress is one of those ways.

My ensign is red. Too many chavvy mobo types have got the blue ones.
 
Yes, exactly....rather like club ties...the new arriviste lot wear polyester ones...the old silk versions are as rare as eel's teeth..:encouragement:

But what colour buttons do you have on your blazer? And do you where when you sell used cars or is it double glazing?
