sartorial elegance
Duckhunter:
Whatever you wear it always pays to carry a set of "falling in gear" - i.e. dry kit that can be put on should you happen to have fallen in!!
A M8 of mine from Norfolk came came shooting in one of the South Coast harbours and got stuck in the mud - badly stuck!! - we got him out but he lost a wader and was covered in cack!!
Luckily he had something to change into before driving back to Norfolk - the downside was that it was a paper boiler suit (known as a rapist suit in the trade!) - he got a few strange looks in the service station apparently - especially as he is 6' 5" and the suits are designed for someone of 5' 6" ..............

It's very shiny. And the brown leather belt sets the whle outfit off perfectly! :lol:

In fairness, it is always best to get someone else to buff your helmet for you, just in case they see something that I missed. Also brown leather is a bit boring, it just doesn't have 'the dash' that black or red leather straps have if you know what I mean?
Of course, when Her Ladyship and I are doing some serious mudplugging then we have to dress accordingly.
The mud is awful when you are trying to push the divots back in on the polo field, don'cha know?

And one must watch out for the steaming divets, don't try pushing those in! :wink:
Are you the tall one with the glasses or the midget whose hat's too big for his head?
