The beauty of charity shop mooching and shopping is that when you walk through the door you never know what you're going to find or want before you come upon it.
So yesterday I found an absolute doozy, to wit a black and gold embossed jacket, something that perhaps Hugh, Darrell's best friend and mentor of things of an over the top type nature might donate. It was truly stunning, with strong Liberace vibes and all for the princely sum of £3.50.
Trust me, I was sorely tempted, but in the end, though greatly considered, no purchase was made on this occasion, I did think perhaps Darrell and I could share it, but to be honest, where would we wear it? It's not a jacket for the odd school run when Eric is otherwise engaged or shopping in Lldl. I know I might live to regret it should an appropriate special time come to bite me on the bum, but in the end I left it for someone else, with the confidence and not a little panache, to rock it!

Never mind - very worthy of consideration. I'm sure Darrell could have carried off that look. But, as you said, where would he wear it?
I assume it would have fitted you - and there isn't a trick of perspective, in the photo. :)
