Black Cloche Hat

[Tilly2]

I bought myself a black cloche hat today and my husband said, 'That's lovely. You look like Lady Edith in Downton.'

Isn't she supposed to be the unattractive one? Should I deck him?

[tonyav]

Mmmmmmm, maybe Tilly.

[albaqwerty]

I would, just to be on the safe side.
Otherwise, you could refuse to talk to him for a week, or do his washing, or do any favours.

[Tilly2]

Well, you see. I thought it looked rather .............fetching.

[albaqwerty]

on the plus side, he did say 'that's lovely' so he can't be all bad :-)

[DaisyNonna]

Well done Tilly. I would love one.

[tonyav]

In that case Tilly because Daisy would love one don't deck him, and he did say ' Thats lovely '.

[aelmpvw]

I've never understood why Lady Edith is considered to be the plain one

[Tilly2]

I would have loved to have been a 'flapper' I do a mean Charleston.

[tonyav]

Oh Tilly I do love a good 'flapper ', can't beat them.

[albaqwerty]

^^ flirt

how's your black bottom, Tilly?

[Tilly2]

What kind of 'flapper' are you referring to Tony? I suspect it might be a different 'flapper' from mine.

[Tilly2]

My bottom's fine, jno. It's not black though.

[jno]

shake it anyway

No Tilly I'm thinking one of those early 1920's good time girls, what did you think I mean't ?.

[Tilly2]

I've led a very sheltered life, Tony, so I couldn't possibly guess. I bet it was rude though. You made it sound rude.

[Tilly2]

I could do that, jno. I just need the frilly bits.

You'll be able to go racing now, just like the trainer Henrietta Knight's

[Tilly2]

[Tilly2]
