What not to wear.
This notice has appeared on the pub in Rassbottom Street.
I presume these rules apply to men. Surely they wouldn't mind women in work wear.
But I'd like to add a few to the list - these are mainly for the women. NO Orange tans
NO Black tights with white shoes.
NO Leggings with short tops - unless you have one of these.
NO Sequinned boob tubes with micro minis, black killeer heels and bare legs. (Come on girls - You know you'll be rat-arsed before chucking out time) NO Full hijab. Not a good outfit for beer drinking and the pub needs to make a profit.
NO SJP

WTF is "workwear" anyway? What I'm wearing now presumably.....or at least exactly the same clothes as I'm wearing now when I get back to doing some work.
"No SJP" would be good enough to get my business.
Plus (if it were in Yorkshire) 'NO SHEEP'
i'm jealous that you even HAVE a pub from which such an eclectic mix might be barred. it just makes me homesick
:-)
I couldn't go in in my cassock then.
Not that I would want to, you understand. Except, now they've challenged me...
Suddenly I can see the advantage of naturism. I'd never have to be worried about being turned away from a pub or restaurant for not having the right gear...
NiC:
I assumed it meant overalls - but the pub is near the station - so it might mean suits and ties.
Gawd - that outfit.
Tony:
You should know.
Clippy Mat:
Probably best to admire nostalgically.
Unless you like binge drinking, fighting and behaving disgracefully.
:-)
Dave:
Now there's an interesting one.
I think we should put it to the test.
If we wait until Spring Rog can join you in his shorts.
No no no Steve.
You know my opinion on nude leap frogging. You may be tempted.
I think you're being too hard on SJP. She's not wearing black tights with those kicky wee white shoes, and she's obviously good at recycling old sofa covers....
I think by workware they mean anything with ETIHAD on it don't they?
Bad luck last night.
No culottes.
I bloody hate culottes.
(Insert 'do they make your bum look big, Rol?' gag here.)
This is all double Dutch to me....my own fashion statement is "Bollocks".
Why is there a picture of My Little Pony at the end?
workware?
(software? beware?)
I meant workwhere obviously
:)
Macy:
OK:
I always think goose pimply legs are so attractive and she won't need a life jacket if the boat goes down.
zIggI:
Please speak to me in easy words.
The Blues are in big trouble
Rol:
Yes - culottes are certainly passion killers. But perhaps that' a good thing on a drunken Friday night.
Rog:
'double Dutch' that's what Dave would say.
She does look a bit hoofy and horsey doesn't she?
zIggI 2:
That doesn't help at all.
But thanks for trying.
What about Gok and a pair of bangers?
Sx
'Rog can join you in his shorts'.
I'm losing weight so fast at the moment, if we wait until Spring, Rog can join me in my shorts.
I can't comment on anyone else's fashion sense as I have been ordering the same work clothes online for years: tan chinos and pastel oxford shirt.
Scarlet:
Dave and Rog could have Wan each.
... oo I think I did a pun.
Dave:
I'm trying to imagine that - but perhaps I'd rather not.
OK then - I'll ask Scarlet to join me in a pair of culottes and we'll have a foursome.
xl:
That sounds lovely - but it depends on the pastel.
Baby blue? Primrose yellow?
And no CROCS, dammit!
perhaps it might be easier to say what is allowed. . .
. . .would my new winter look be acceptable?
It might be more fun if I joined Scarlet in a pair of culottes, and you joined Rog in his shorts.
No sparkly boob tubes? What not even a small one?
Does sportswear include polo and rugby union shirts?
MJ:
You know they were on the list in my head - and then I forgot.
Sorry.
View:
Your new winter look is so bold. I just love the leg warmers.
Dave:
What are you like eh??
I don't think Rog would be too pleased with the deal.
Kerrie:
Especially not a small one.
Geoff:
Not applicable.
On Rassbottom Street - Polo is a mint and Rugby Union's a game for nancy boy toffs.
what is that strange growth on the twins?
In some cases, camel toe can be remediated with CROCS!
Gerald:
It's a 'designer' growth - so she likes it.
xl:
So crocs can kill camels.
You've been watching David Attenborough again.
I have no idea about the most things in this post. But this lady wearing a kind of mushroom in the last picture seems to have some awfully crossed legs. She should hide them.
Soem years ago I deceided to wear suits or at least jackets and - vide - no more fashion problems.
I see that Dave is getting better... he's getting a bit frisky!

Some pubs in this sunburned country have a dress code: "no singlets and thongs."
(in case you don't know, thongs are the strap-between-the-toes- sandals, not the Rudy Gernrich kind.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thong_(clothing))
mago:
Blue mushrooms?
Sounds like you've been smoking them.
I envy blokes their jacket pockets.
Scarlet:
It's the drink!
Dinah:
Wow - Wiki certainly knows his thongs.
I certainly wouldn't want to drink my pint next to a G string wearer, but I can't see what's wrong with flip flops.
Does flammable nylon count?
No caps?
On Ramsbottom Street?
How do they fan the froth off their ale?
And no culottes or Cole-esque trousers with the sides missing. Revolting apparel.
I am with you on the fake tan issue , there is a girl at work who looks like she has been painted with cuprinol shed protector......its not an attractive look
Damn. I always thought I looked particularly fetching when I wore my boiler suit to the pub.
Back to the fashion drawing board.
Nora:
Flammable Nylon NO - but Flaming Nora's OK.
Kevin:
I suppose they have to leave them behind on't loom.
But it's OK - they all drink Pils now.
Rassbottom
Laura:
I was looking at a pic of that yesterday - my jaw dropped.
But apparently she's no1 in both charts.
*sigh*
Beastie:
That's not even a good look on a shed!
Roses:
I used to love boiler suits - apart from in the loo.
Sew on trillions of sequins and it can't possibly count as work wear.
Rassbottom Street. That would explain it. (-:
I am now looking through my wardrobe to expunge all inappropriate items. I dare not be seen in the corridors of Whitehall without my regulation M and S black trousers. It's just not done. But can I keep my rara skirt?
well, it's a good thing that pub isn't in the local village where we all go in wearing wellies and thick jumpers smeared with cow dung. It's a pheromone thing.
Just popped into ask if Sequined leggings are O.K? I have just bought some in a cheer myself up shopping attack and I need to know before I go out?
( I don't have one of those camel toe things!)
Kevin:
But - I'm afraid I don't know what a Rassbottom is.
Sounds a bit Peter Tosh to me.
Madame:
Where would we all be without black trousers?
Rara skirts will be fine - but you must have three ras in three different colours.
OK?
Mopsa:
I understand - you would not be welcome smelling of soap.
Kerrie:
I had to give some thought to this one.
It'll be OK - but not with a sequinned boob tube. Only with a long sequinned top or the full hijab.
Hope this helps.
hmm, think I will opt for the long top.
learn summat new every day - not come across the expression "camel-toes" before!
BTW It is only "First" buses that have officially stopped issueing tickets for passes - "Stagecoach" still insist on them - while some drivers just wave you on others look grumpy if you don't take the ticket.
Kerrie:
Knock em for six babe.
Gerald:
That's why you just love the Internet.
It's a mystery how they allocate the funds.
Love it!
Does this mean VPL is allowed? Thank gooddess coz I wear it very well!! Hehe!
Sorry Karen:
VPL (the teacher's nightmare) wasn't on the list coz it' just too bad to mention.
