The Tyranny Of The Seasons
The weather might have been a bit better on Friday, but the same couldn’t be said for my shopping.
I went with the idea of buying two things; a decent pair of cord trousers and some leather gloves.
But it was the wrong season for both and fashion’s obsession with that is summed up in this picture on the wall.
As I tend to dress the same all the year, why can’t I buy my staple clothes, when I want to?
After all, we don’t have to buy things like baked beans, just after harvest time. How silly would it be, if we had to buy a hundred tins for the next year in say September?
Incidentally, the cold meant the shops and restaurants were pretty empty.
And in the cafe, where I had a cup of tea, the waitress was wearing a fleece over her uniform.
