It's as if the fashion industry has decreed that men's clothing must become no more functional than women's attire... next thing you know, they'll start to label shirts with arbitrary, meaningless size numbers.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11390058224270565423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2862729565948191502.post-48028775263254058082007-11-07T09:28:00.000-05:002007-11-07T09:28:00.000-05:00I commiserate with you on the dollar's sag.

During my 20 years in England, when my income was in dollars, the exchange rate varied from parity between the two currencies and a two-dollar pound. Even so the greenback never sank to quite its present level. The old fixed rate was $2-50 or so: odd to think of that now.<BR/>Oxford, including Headington and Summertown, have several charity shops.

My annual February Week in London is starting to look like it might be a long weekend in Portsmouth, instead. Well, at least Virgin is helping the cause with some decent airfares, but I do regret that I won't get my full week this winter, not that I'll be able to afford to do much once I get there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2862729565948191502.post-5997715306022700612007-11-07T05:14:00.000-05:002007-11-07T05:14:00.000-05:00I think I'm going to die laughing.

My husband, Henry Laurence (laurence@bowdoin.edu) is at Oxford's Nissan Institute researching a book on public TV, and he stumbled on your blog. "You have to go there. He's here from the USA with his family and dog too." Henry asked when sale season was after drooling over an 80 pound shirt in London.
