Mullets. I think they are really naff, so will spend all day laughing my head off, or at least sniggering behind my hand. If we can cross them with a comb-over, then the gags will write themselves when I get introduced to people....  |

Problem is that " ladies" nooadays think that elegance. Is a pair of frilly socks underneath their 'dungies' (dungarees). So no demand y'see.  |

I might be a bit of a thread pooper but I'm from the school of thought where if you like something just wear it. That's kind of how trends come back anyway. |

Braces are NOT out of fashion, how dare you!
I would, however, like people to bring back trousers with brace buttons, rather than these shitty clip on ones I wear.
They so flyyyy.  |

they were 2 balls attached by a length of string and the knack was to get them to collide together by flicking ones wrist..
start off by them being together and then get them moving with the trick being to have them collide top and bottom..

Weren't the balls made in sections at one time, maybe just before the end, so that they would often "clack" apart violently? |
