How many Brits are here?

[Mr Badger]

Mr Badger - was your avatar picture taken at the fabulous Rivoli Ballroom in Brockley by any chance?

Sadly, no, mate. It was snapped at a work's festive do — it's a Fedora from Alvin Lansky (yes, one of the brothers) at his Memphis emporium, Mr Hats, coupled with a houndstooth zoot suit bought from a very friendly Palestinian man's pimp store in Macon, Georgia!

Good evening all,

Another Brit signing in. Originally from London, and now residing in Northampton.

Cheers,

Danny O

Another one here from London. I must confess, I sometimes feel like a bit of a fraud, as I only jump over here to gather ideas on Aero jackets & coats. For that it's been a great resource.

I'm from the Oxon/Northants border area, a tiny village there. Where I am now just outside Buckingham isn't that far from Towcester, though. Don't really see many people around dressed vintage, although to be fair, I'm not either hugely (I'm a hat guy, don't think my wife would go for me doing much more than that).

Hi Dave,

Just noticed you're in Buckingham (or a little village just outside). My business premises, is in Gawcott, and I live in Northampton, so thought I'd say "Hi". I'll keep a lookout for a "hat guy"!

Cheers,

Danny O

I'm in a tiny village down near Towcester. Whereabouts are you from? Do you find a lot of other vintage lovers around this area?

Hi HannahJane,

Just noticed you're near Towcester. I drive past that way everyday, en route from Northampton to Buckingham, so thought I'd say "Hi"!

Gawcott is just up the road from me (I actually live in Tingewick).

Hello Danny, it's nice to meet you.
Until this thread I was beginning to think that I was the only person in this sort of area who was interested in vintage!

HannahJane,

I agree, but looking around the Lounge, it would appear that we are not alone with our affliction! lol

Am I too late for tea? My first post and thought it only correct to post here.
Am in Warwickshire, born here, left for a while a few times but always return.

There's a small contingent *in here* from Northern Ireland (some live there, some are Ex-Pats).

I'm from the suburbs of Cheltenham. Is it too late for a cuppa? I've brought biscuits...

 

[Dav]

Never to late for a cuppa are they Hobnobs?

Chocolate, plain and I've even snuck in a few Jaffa cakes! Here's the real question though, far more telling than where we're from...
Are you a dunker? lol

 

[Dav]

Yes I must confess, I'm a dunker.

 

[LinaSofia]

Hello all, I'm not 'technically' British, since I was born in Sweden, but I have lived here for 11 years and am soon to marry a British fella, so I suppose I could be some sort of honorary Brit?
I currently live in Southampton, but longing to get out...

 

[Geiamama]

Yes I must confess, I'm a dunker.

Good show! :tea:
