Things to do, places to go, not all High Peak
Come on, you know the tune…
Robin Hood, Robin Hood, striding through the City,
with his nasty Party,
Kwasi Hood, Kwasi Hood, takes from the poor,
gives to the rich
Kwasi Hood, Kwasi Hood, loved by Fat Cats,
feared by the people
Kwasi Hood, Kwasi Hood, Kwasi Hood
I was watching the Euros 22 on BBC the other night and can’t help but be struck by the fabulous colours the commentators were wearing, particularly of the “suits”
What I want to know is why “blokes” seem to have a choice of any colour as long as it is virtually black! (OK maybe grey or dark blue).
For Instance take a look at M & S colour selection
Or Perhaps Next
A little better, but still no plain colours other than sheer boredom…
I get that fashion for men, (if it still exists) has been taken over by dark grey and black, and not featuring suits outside proms, Weddings and Funerals (See you need a black suit!), but come on we are not Model T’s, and it seems girls can have light bright cool suits but not blokes?
In Chapel-en-le-Frith in the High Peak they certainly know how to "dress-up" on St George's day!
Nearly every Business in the main street, and the Market Place, is flying the Georges Cross Flag at the front of their premises, some have more than one. All the Pubs and restaurants seem to have hung extra flags and bunting. Local residents in many cases have flags as well.
Lots of vehicles in the area seem to be sporting English Car Flags or stickers., the Sun is shining and it looks terrific!
Many of the businesses are doing special promotions for Georges Day, anything from English Breakfasts, Sirloin Beef Dinners, to computer pensticks, oh and of course flags…
Well the Irish may make a ballyhoo over St Pats, but at least in "Chapel", they seem to make a similar fuss over the National Day of England, well we're off now to join the party….
