            Sidney Balmoral James: Marvelous isn't it. I can't wait to get into my pointed Italian two tones and off down the high street. Makes you feel like a king. Clean dicky dirt, new Peckham, pair of luminous almond rocks, new whistle, nice crease in my strides, Barnet well greased up and flashing my Hampsteads at all the bona palodes.
