Para mentioned that his undies go a bit stiff with age. This could be in part his leaning towards the theory that an annual wash is enough. Then again it could be the synpathetic nature of the garment in that he uses damart and such like layering systems.
Having just shed my winter vestments of homespun Harris Tweed Y fronts - I'm now comfortably ensconced in finest lightest cotton - does anyone else favour the natural fibre or are we clad in outdoor designer grundies when we take to the seas?

Re: Harris Tweed Y fronts

I can't imagine they'd do much for your piles..

Personally I prefer silk

Re: Harris Tweed Y fronts

Wonder if we should recommend Capt Tolley's cure?

Re:Cotton is perfect

for the sailing gentlman in summer climes. I favour the M&S Boxer Shorts cut to allow a bit of air to circulate. They do look like shorts but anyone foolish enough to use them as such can soon find that "the sparrow has fallen from the nest" in the most obvious way. Some of the more expensive lables do provide a fly button and are a safer bet. Wear cotton under your thermals and you soon find yer neathers are cold and clammy though.

Re: At it again

Yes sorry - bit of a boring sort of a day really - students all gone and my mind not exactly on doing the bits of admin that all the other swots around here are busying themselves with.
Graduation Ceremony on Thursday so that should keep me busy as my students touch the hem of my gown and give thanks to the Great Man for all I've done for them. I ran an alternative ceremony last year which went down rather well really, but I've been asked to conform this year as the gown hirers had to spend quite a lot on dry cleaning.
Sunday I'm away for a week doing a spot of assessing for some budding Mountain Leaders then I think I am free from the shackles and ties that bind for a week or several. Dear Heart has me down for a bit of concreting at Claymore Towers which appears unavoidable at present then its Oe'r the Border and Awa'

Re: At it again

Now surely as a man from 'North o'er the Border', it seems strange to have under-garments of either finest Tweed or purest cotton. I thought you braved nature in the raw (as it were) under your kilt?

An Essex girl and an Irish guy are in a bar when The Essex girl notices something strange about the wellies that the Irish guy's wearing. She says to him, "Scuse me mate, I ain't being funny or nuffink, but why does one of your wellies have an L on it, and the uva one's got an R on it?" So, the Irish guy smiles, puts down his pint of Guinness and replies, "Well, oim a little bit tick you see. The one with the R is for me roight foot and the one with the L is for me left foot." "Cor, blimey!" exclaims the Essex girl, "So THAT'S why me knickers 'ave got C&A on the label"!
