Dear YLF

I hope everyone's well, I'll enjoy your NAS finds in your WIWs later this year as I have little time for participation and commenting these days.

For now just a quick 'hello" in the form of WIW and the last one from the old address from which we're moving out last bits and pieces and will hand over the keys in the next few days.

I bought the linen shirt mentioned in my old thread. I've researched the brand, checked the workmanship, the condition and since the sleeves are long enough *for me* and the shirt is the perfect length I decided it's worth chance. Thanks to everyone who talked sense into me

Here I wear it with the old red linen pinstripe pants (8 or 9 years!) and the two together may be too much volume, but provide excellent protection from the heat we have. When I wear this, it feels cool underneath, like a nice crisp tent which protects me from the sun and high temperatures.

What do you think - good decision to buy or not?

In other -- non-fashion news -- taupe is the new white... our much-looked-forward-to white kitchen was delivered with the - taupe doors A huge shock and a telephone call to the salesman later the mistake is about to be corrected. C'est la vie... at least we've had proactive person on the other end who will take care of it as it was his mistake. But talk about my forever changed relationship with one colour

Likely post and run I'm afraid, but thanks in advance for all the comments. The internet connection on the new address will hopefully be active in a few days.

I miss you all.
