Please excuse the Off Topic here, folks, but I have to ask.....:p
Rabbit, what is that turntable in the pics? I see what looks like a Galibier? with a Schroeder arm/Allaerts cartridge, (plus a modded Rega?), and possibly Mag pod feet? Or is it a Grandeeza or something like that?
Nice set...
Citroen 2CV: Designed by a taller than average Frenchman (J. P. Boulanger), who specified that it had to accommodate him comfortably while wearing his hat..... and yes, there is certainly plenty of headroom, even without the roof being rolled back!!:D And no headrests either.....

Congrats on acquiring this one, Rabbit; it does indeed look like an awesome hat!
Ah, the one that got away..... :eusa_doh: If only I'd checked my PM's earlier that day when Ale decided to let this one go, it would certainly have been despatched Scotland-wards, to take its place at the head...
Yeah, they come up with some weird sounding names, don't they? Anyone know if they actually have a meaning, or are they simply chosen out of nowhere? I've got an Ecosan, an Idorsca, a Faunosca, a Gaunczca (?) and a TA/Ludora. Hmmm.....

Seems to be slightly more of a Continental thing - I have a Swiss suit with similar slanting buttonholes in the fly, but none of my British made suits have that. Obviously not always the case, though.....

:eusa_clap:eusa_clap:eusa_clap. Very smart and nicely proportioned, Rabbit - Palladio is a great colour IMHO. Keeping my eyes peeled for a Palladio with black ribbon like yours - the only Palladio Borso I currently have is a velour with self coloured ribbon and brim binding.

Nice! Looks very similar, colours and overall, to my Mallory Eight Fifty, and it needed a new sweat band too! Optimo did a nice job for me, so worth an enquiry.....
Enjoy,
