The best thread ever? There is no debate, Mr Eliot Wilson's Formal Dress thread cannot be beaten.

Digging is also the name of a sophisticated dance move.

It smowed today as well. More importantly, I was stood up by the maoam person. That's a horrible thing to do. I got all wet and muddy crossing the lake as well. Anyway, the prize is buried under the tree/bush thing on the island. maoam.

03:17 a.m. - why am I up?

Make that Saturday instead - Friday night is BOP night, afterall. maoam.

It looks like my £1.40 is going to remain fairly secure. As a compromise, I am willing to loan somebody £1.40 on the promise that they pay it back to me at a rate of interest of my choosing. Either that, or I am willing to exchange the money for three maoams, and if nobody accepts either compromise,...

Quoting Anon. from 00:19, 19th Nov 2005 In a super-formal situation such as a State Dinner, the only adornment to the evening coat should be stars and miniature medals. Only if the invitation states "Evening Dress - Decorations", or, if the Queen or a Member of the Royal Family who is a Royal Highn...

we like the bar, one cos it's not too loud - but i was kinda annoyed when i paid £4.40 for 2 pints I wonder why it's not too loud... and then again, there is the feeling that it's a bit deserted - hopefuly this might change in time. You like the bar 'cos it's not too loud', and hope that it might b...

Gutted!

The massive ammount of editing there was due to my futile attempt to link the last m's of the two horizontal maoams with an 'aoa'. I'll give anybody £1.40 who manages to create a maoam square. Farley

Should servants and waiters wear a different style of dinner jacket from diners? Or, is there one style of dinner jacket which servants and waiters should only wear? A friends once implied that this was the case.

Returning to dress - I'm speaking in the Freshers' Debate and I'm concerned about whether to wear trous or plain black. Thoughts?

I'd pluck for the former - give the new foreign contingent an early dose of Scottishness.

Incidentally, what's the motion?

Well, after that performance, there can be no doubt as to whether you act your age or not. My word.

Well, Mr User, I'm either accused of pretension or immaturity, but not to worry. Incidentally, I saw a ptarmigan yesterday morning.

Quoting exnihilo from 14:06, 20th Aug 2005 we've lost count of the number of 18 or 19 year olds we've met who would have us think them Mr Worldly-Wiseman but whose obvious pretensions shine out like a beacon. The number of people who would have us think that in one year of adulthood they had learne...

lol, ah the venom.

Proper shop? As opposed to black market brollies? I suspected I would elicit this sort of response, but come on! quality can hardly be assured from the Millets of this world. Carried in whichever hoof is more comfortable for the carrier. Hmmmm, I'm not sure. You ain't seen me, roight? An Auntie Ell...
