    World's only remaining "Ghost Car" up for auction - 1939 Pontiac Deluxe Six

    Imagine driving down the street in that, it would be fabulous. You could give small children binoculars and tell them they're x-ray goggles :cool:

    Great English novels set between the wars....

    As someone posted the wonderful Christopher and his Kind clip, has anyone read any Christopher Isherwood? I was contemplating getting my hands on something, so any recommendations would be great. Also, another EW plug. I was very disappointed when in my first year of university no beautiful...

    "if I knew then what I know now"

    Maybe its because im too young for regrets, but i wouldnt have changed a thing. I'll probably feel differently when im 40, but i figure the moment you start to have regrets is the moment you really become old.

    Valentines Day?

    A friend of mine is taking his fair lady on the eurostar to Paris. Wonder if he'll notice if I lock her up somewhere and turn up wearing a wig...

    Why are posh people so scruffy? Hilarious article

    Because he's Boris and therefore just plain amazing. He may not be the best mayor London's ever had, but he's definately the most awesome.

    Are good manners now vintage?

    I'm don't mean to be at all agressive in this, I'm merely wondering, why does it scare you that now younger people respect people who earn it, and not everyone who comes their way who happened to be born before them? I think it's the perfectly right and natural thing. Of course, I'm biased, I'm...

    Are good manners now vintage?

    I'm not defending this sorry state of affairs - but did you by any chance miss the nod? Or the holding the door open for the next person? One thing I've noticed is that Americans say thanks out loud, while we Brits (not having a formal introduction and whatnot ;) ) tend to either just smile, nod...

    Are good manners now vintage?

    I think it is something about being in a big city. When I go to London, it's a massive faux pas to make eye contact with people on the Tube. But if I get the train round where I live I end up having all sorts of conversations with people. I tend to go around smiling like a nutcase, and...

    Ghost stories please..

    Wow, some of these are creepy. My personal contribution - my school was built some time in the late 18th century. In one of the older boys' houses, there's a little exam room at the top of the building. I was taking a Latin exam for the entrance scholarship - there were only 5 other people in...

    Vapididity defined: Sorority dress code

    What I want to know on the theme of shorts is why people wear shorts for rugger in the winter, and trousers for cricket in the summer? And no one can say that gentlemen don't play rugger :)

    Today I am a "Ma'am"

    I'm only ever Miss - or if I'm down the market I'm luv/sweetheart/me duck. I don't think I'll ever be a Ma'am.

    WHOA! Awesome makeup, check her out!

    I was very much hoping you'd say a colour like that - it's almost the same as mine!! I've never dared to go blonde before, I always thought my hair was too dark, but now I think I might give it a go... You've inspired me lol.

    Johanna, can I ask, what colour is your hair naturally? I think Im going to have to join your Fedora Lounge fan club - your portraits are all gorgeous.

    Ladies and Xmas Gift-Minded Gents: Cashmere Cardigan with Fox Collar (Barney's NY)

    Oh no, don't remove the fur. It says it's a medium - is it a big medium or a small medium; how big is it in dress sizes? I may possibly be interested (I'm doing all my Xmas shopping at the moment and I know someone who loves all things cashmere.

    FOR SALE: Cir. 1910 Pocket Watch & Chain Coin Silver Case

    I am very tempted. How much would it cost to ship to the UK, do you think? It would make the perfect Christmas present for someone I know.

    Vintage Christmas?

    I love the painting on the wall - very Christmassy. And the plastic santa is pretty awesome too!

    Vintage Christmas?

    We're doing Secret Santa - it means everyone still gets a present so it still feels christmassy, but it drastically reduces the cost.

    Vintage Christmas?

    It's not premature at all!! Tis the first Sunday of advent this week, and Advent calendars start on Monday, ergo it is allowed to talk about Christmas!:D I guess over here we don't have Thanksgiving, so we start thinking of Christmas earlier. All the shops over here have had Christmas...

    Vintage Christmas?

    With the clock ticking down to Christmas - what are you doing for Christmas that's slightly vintage? The only thing I'm doing so far is making Christmas presents instead of buying them from "Generic Presents R Us" - fudge of various flavours (including Baileys Irish Cream, if there's any left...
