Fancy Dress
The noble Earl is minded to acquire a Royal Irish Rangers' caubeen with hackle; and the cap badge of a field-marshal, for use at future house parties (!).
Dangerfield, old boy, your notion of having Belmont promoted might finally come to fruition.
Slightly disrespectful to those who wear the uniform in combat, some migh be inclined to say?
ReplyDeleteI have the utmost respect for those who are proud to wear Her Majesty's uniforms.
ReplyDeleteWe're talking in this context about a private house party.
Simply a bit of fun, as is all fancy dress!
I agree Timothy. Fancy dress is meant to be worn as a joke and to have a laugh. People take things so seriously these days.
