All of the postmen that I see wear shorts now, even in the middle of winter. I've even seem them in shorts when there has been snow or heavy rain. It does make me wonder whether they are standard uniform now. Strangely, though, none of the lady posties that I see ever wear them....I remember postmen in grey uniforms, complete with peaked cap. Nowadays, it's shorts. Which I suppose makes sense in the hotter weather. But there was a dignity and pride in that old uniform.
I'm sure that there are plenty of people who wear shorts all year round in the UK. I've seen plenty of them in my town in shorts, so I know it's true. It does seem to be predominantly men who wear shorts all year round, though, for some reason....I respect anyone who can wear shorts year round in the UK!

It does make me think, though....don't they feel the cold at all? Why do they need to have cool legs in all weathers? Some of them don't seem to own any trousers or jeans. I always used to associate shorts with being on holiday or in warm weather. That doesn't seem to be the case with some men now, though.
My elderly mother has a saying..."where there's no sense, there's no feeling". I am beginning to think she may have a point.
Looking at the photo I can clearly remember the zippp zapp noise these used to make!

Skin on coffee....
Day off, taken the kids to the coast for the day. Random thought popped into my heard. When I was a kid and my folks always took coffee in a flask on a day out...after a few moments there would be a really thin layer of skin.
Where's that gone? Was it real for anyone else? Am I imagining this
If not, where's it gone? Is the milk we use different......

They seem to be standard uniform for teenagers and young people these days. You very rarely see kids wearing jeans now...unless they're those horrible, bloody ripped-to-shreds things that look as though they've been through a combine harvester. I have never wore ripped jeans in my life, and I never would because I simply don't like them. They leave very little to the imagination, and you can almost see the wearer's underwear. I just don't understand why anyone would choose to buy jeans that have more holes in than the ones they were were wearing before.Kids wearing anything other than jogging bottoms or leggings.
