The Day Cravat and other accessories

Post by Badger »

I have recently purchased three out of the following four essential accessories in anticipation of the new season. I would dearly like to procure the fourth to roll up to the next Mullocks auction in April but alas it seems like nothing more than a pipe dream. I do like that colour though :Wink:

Bristol cars are very nice but not really deigned as a fishing wagon :Hahaha: and if you can afford the £40000.

:Hat: The Cravat, cap and pipe will look very dashing Badger. Love the Bristol. The Triumph Herald would do me , I had one back in the seventies, on the look out for one to restore at the moment.
Not a fish was visible that first time I visited Beechmere; an utter
stillness brooded over the place and I felt the strange and sinister atmosphere which, so the story goes,
has been the cause of several suicides.’
