Hawaiian Shirt Arrived

Image
The shirt arrived today. I put the package to one side. When Claire was otherwise engaged I unpacked it. As it features flowers and toucans (yes the big beaky bird) maybe it ought to be a South American shirt unless toucans are found in Hawaii too.  Carefully unbuttoned it. Nice soft material. Slipping it on it fits really nicely. Comfortable. I expected Claire to hate it. She didn't. A career in modelling? Male modelling over for another few years.... Let's see yours! Post in the comments. Let's see how good some are and how gross some are.... 

Hawaiian Shirt!

Don't laugh. It's too late for a midlife crisis but as a tribute to the old days of the SOC Kent Centre I bought a Hawaiian shirt.  In the 80's the Kent Centre started wearing shirts like this to rallies and gatherings.  I had one with palm trees and coconuts! This one is actually by Guinness, the beer people, and has their toucan in the design.   There's a harp on it as well. Guinness Shirt

Looking back to: October 2004

 It was our fourth wedding anniversary and we decided to get up very early and drive all the way to Stansted Airport to fly to Dublin. It seemed a good idea at the time. It was quite a cold day but I don't suppose you travel to Dublin in October you don't expect balmy sunny weather. Once in the city centre from the airport we went to see the Book of Kells in Trinity College and then took the bus out to Guinness. You can see loads from the buses and you didn't necessarily need a tour bus. Once we had got back into the centre, we had a late lunch in a pub and then back to get the airport bus.
