I have no idea what to write here; it just seemed a good title for a thread.
Well, since the public image of wargamers is fat, badly clothed Nerds in 'obscure band' t-shirts, which we unfairly inherited off the roll players, should we not post the elegant items of gentleman's attire we don to trounce our opponents?
I'm a great fan of the blue jeans, tshirt with witty slogan but also like a nice shirt, and Fez.
Good idea Lemmey.
As one of the few gamers not into heavy metal, my normal attire for a club night regardless of the weather is canvas baggy shorts, rugby shirt and sunglasses perched on head!
Elasticated joggers for me - to contain the middle-age spread. Disreputable trainers and, since a major part of my diet is blood-thinners, a sloppy sweater. :-B
This is how i go to the club.I always have room at the bar, and punks don't mess with me. I am fine with that 8)

I get paid a retainer by three very well known 'companies'.......NOT to wear their clothes...As whatever I put on, I still look like a sack of poop tied in the middle with a piece of string. ;) :D

A true Genetleman should not be seen without his tweeds :D
Genetleman.... Well, a genet is a sort of small carnivorous mammal (or are we talking about Jean Genet, a rather unpleasant French playwrite?), and "leman" is a long-obsolete word for a lover, but what they have to do with tweeds eludes me.
They smell of urine ?

Mwa ha ha ha

I know of a meerkat that that dresses as a gentleman... might be related to the genet....simples ;)
Meerkats make the most adorable pets, btw, if you're ever offered one.
(subtitle: How many posts to brigadier?)
As of this moment....238 (I think.)
Thank you, sir!
Better reply more often to reach Brigadier then ;).
That would be a shameless abuse of the system.
Don't you think?
I'm not sure :-\.
Having thought about it I think you might be right ;).
Though if you disagree we can post a few defiant remarks every day, of course.
And they can always be docked at a later date !! ;D ;D
(I lost a post yesterday .....For tacking on to the end of a spammer's thread....So I'm owed this one. :P)
Cheers - Phil.
No you're not! :P
The temptation is to write, "Yes I am."
(I can't be bothered though. :P ;))
Cheers - Phil.
Oh no your not! ;)
I'll let you have the last word Lemmey. ;)
Cheers - Phil.
You do realise that a "brigadier" in the French cavalry was actually a corporal? I've been looking for a transfer to the Luxembourg navy ever since I found out. :o
;D ;D ;D ;D
I once met the Swiss Admiral of the fleet, lovely chap, got to run three speed boats on anti-smuggling operations!
What were they smuggling - fondue sets, alpenhorns, cuckoo clocks? :D
Tobleron :D

Maybe they were smuggling the holes out of their cheese?
Anyone know a good tailor in the Leighton Buzzard area, my work trousers have developed an unfortunate hole! :o
Just a single hole Will ?
The jeans I've got on today have more than half a dozen.
Teach me to be a tad more careful with battery acid. :'( :'( :-[
Cheers - Phil.
What you drink is your own affair, Phil. :D
:P ;D ;D ;D ;D
