Its not bad I suppose - for an American site! (sorry Estaban!). Stop by The Galahad Club - its both British and better, at least it will be (but then I would say that - its a project that I and another TFFer have been working together on!!!!). It probably won't be to everyone's tastes - but we hope to have a wide range appeal nonetheless, and we're looking for contributors to help out too!

I've just 'visited' The Galahad Club.

Correct me if I am wrong but wasn't Galahad the illegitimate son of Lancelot and Elaine of Corbenic?

Monty Python lives! (Shameless un-plugging!)

For the real dope on Galahad I would recommend the short story 'Too bad Galahad' by the Canadian writer Matt Cohen.

Ha! Indeed Wandler - though its another Galahad that it takes its name from.....

I shall certainly "check out" Mr. Cohen's story though.

Aha then it must be this Galahad! The cute moss green nail varnish on this web-site.

What do you 'chaps' get up to in your green nail varnish club?

Ahah! :shocked: So it's true then! Inspector Lestrade must hear of this forthwith!

Where will it all end. If this is allowed to continue the Cabinet will end up full of ex-Bullingdon Club boys wearing green nail varnish and pretending to be related to the illegitimate sons of of dark knights.

WB,

I've been watching for a Full Norfolk for months but they all seem to be for midgets and in the most ghastly tweed. I'm looking for a 46"'chest in olive green.
