Oooh...dressing up!
So what do the girlies wear? Tops 'n' trousers too tight or too big and sloppy:0
...and ladies can wear tweeds too, as long as they have correct lisle stockings and low heeled shoes, and good carrying voices.
...as long as I have my shade, I don't really care what anyone wears...as long as they bring a bottle to share or some biccies for dunkin' in the tea!
PS...that's Tristan...slightly more factual than Aragorn I think...
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Merlot in one hand, Cigar in the other; body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, what a ride!

's not dressing up if everyone does it, it's habitual. No matter what, there still must be port.
I have a carrying voice, but no lisle stockings. I'm not an archaeologist, so I may be exempt from the dress requirements.
Tristan, eh? Slightly... for some value thereof.

I am going to stick with my 80's Tv themes, for the next few months its 'Doogie Howser MD' an inspiration to everyone i think
Archaeology is the peeping Tom of the sciences It is the sandbox of men who care not where they are going; they merely want to know where everyone else has been.

Actually DL since you have been away lots has happened with archaeology and fashion. Our facebook group Archaeological Fashionistas documents some or other of theese changes
A few examples of fashion from the past:
Basil Brown at Sutton Hoo
Tessa Wheeler at St Albans
TE Lawrence and Leo Wooley in Jordan

"there still must be port."
As one of my contempraries at Glasgow once said to Professor Alcock when offered Ruby or Tawny "Any port in a storm Professor!"

It was the Fashionistas that I had in mind when I mentioned a dress code.

Bless. The old ones are the best, and with archaeologists they can be very, very old.
