Hot enough for DUKWs

I am mostly asleep and the weather is far too good for being indoors, so I went for a post-lunch wander. I accidentally the tradesmen's entrance of Jolly's and found myself deep in the underwear department, which was all a bit Father Ted.

Later I fetched up at the Assembly Rooms and pottered round the fashion museum. It seemed to be wedding-dress month. Those from the thirties and forties (and evening dresses ditto) were well into boat-floating territory. The influence of Modernist thinking, I should imagine. The examples from the eighties were a cavalcade of 'dear me what were you thinking?'

Well worth a visit. (Yes I would be up for another weekday lunchtime wander)
