Long and Short Trousers.....

The first few times you meet new people can always be a difficult things to negotiate.

Pulling up at the house I had the feeling should have gone for the shorts look to fit in with the other men there. In fact I could have lost the shoes and socks as well. Today, however, wasn’t about fitting in as much as looking respectable and the shirt and linen chinos luckily did that.

Sitting out on the patio admiring the vine, full with grapes, stretched over the pergola I tried to keep up with their gossip and stories and not drip canapes down my shirt front. I was lucky with both and managed to escape unscathed and having made a reasonable impression.
