Looking good. Hope all went well with the hip.View attachment 498499
Today I had an appointment for a check up on my hip replacement. More than just a check up, there will be an x-ray too. My surgeon, Mr Turnbull, (UK class snobbery, when a doctor becomes a surgeon his title is Mister not doctor,) back to Mr Turnbull, he is a classy dresser and he always gives me 'the look' but never says anything. He wears trilbies and occasionally I have seen him wearing a bowler.
His assistant, a junior doctor, I get on very well with, he even bought a hat from the lady who makes mine. But today I learned that they were having bets on my attire. Ha! According to the junior doctor they were all wrong! I might have had a bet myself if I had known.
The hat is bespoke, Gamble & Gunn, as are the shoes, Colin Johnson, the blazer is also bespoke, Fox Tailoring and Tina, my wife, made the trousers. She also chose which hat I should wear to impress Mr Turnbull, I think she was right.
