Friday was a gig by the boys (The Black Devils Brigade, their button is on the left there, see? You should click through if you're into awesomeness at all). Our chum Ian was home from Big Kid School (Queens), my sweetie and I got to go out AT THE SAME TIME(!), a whole gang of our chums were out and there was dancing, hollering and hi-jinx. And maybe a few drinkies.
Saturday morning was breakfast at my new favorite greasy spoon, and YAY for the restorative powers of bacon. And also for Teddy ditching the booster seat like a big boy.

Nothing vintage about that tunic (jacket), that is a current issue RCAF enlisted uniform piece. As for the wedge (hat), it is NOT Canadian or commonwealth of any sorts, I have no idea where it's from.
ReplyDeleteEither way, who cares, you look fucking hot.
