    New Queen Elizabeth (III?)

    Odd, that. QM2 makes regular Transatlantic voyages from Southampton to New York. See http://www.cunard.com/Destinations/default.asp?Region=7 There is a season, however; she's off the Transatlantic run until April, as she stops in January. You'd have to call them to make shipping...

    New Queen Elizabeth (III?)

    Don't knock Cunard till you try one. The Cunarders are the last true liners afloat - indeed, don't let the skipper catch you calling either QM2 or Vic a "cruise ship"! You may find yourself over the side! :D I just this past Monday got off the Queen Mary II after 15 days. It was a wonderful...

    Fish and chips and other balms for the soul

    East Coasters (USA): There's a smashing place in NJ called The Ship Inn. It's NJ's first brewpub, founded by a couple of ex-pat Yorkshiremen. They brew an outstanding Bitter which pairs well with their F&C. You can even get a side of mushy peas. Trouble is, they don't do proper chips...

    Carnation in lapel?

    This is important. Gentlemen should eschew pocket squares altogether when wearing a buttonhole, as they distract from the attractiveness of the flower. As important is the size of the buttonhole. As others have pointed out, size matters. Gentlemen should wear buttonholes of a size as to...

    Matching tie & pocket square

    Good heavens. That last makes me want to either cry or shoot his tailor. Unless his tailor is Mr Sears-Roebuck; should it be so I have little idea where to begin. It is what one might call a "target-rich environment". I must say I agree: Exactly matching necktie and pocket square matching is...

    How Good a Husband are You? - 1933 Edition

    Wow. I scored 115! Who'd'a thunk it? Distressingly, my wife scored a 39. She attributes this to being a wife of the Nora Charles, pre-Nicky archetype. As witness, I attest to this being 110% true - she is of that archetype. :D Cheers, Bob

    You know you've been re-enacting WW2 for too long when…

    76. You peel the labels off your bottles of beer and paste on copies of the 1943 version you found online. Cheers, Bob
