Most doctors drive BMWs, Mercs or Porches and GPs doctors drive SAABs and Volvos. Never seen a doctor in a Hiace van? Does the Rod bit refer to his name or his specialisation?You may be thinking he is some kind of welder and is a guru with the welding rod, but there are no real indications that is the case. I passed the van a little further on and it had no signwriting to provide a clue.
Finally for those that missed it on twitter:
OK, the shirt and suit are cool, but I am not so sure about the tie, Its..........dyslexic kinda
ReplyDeletePhoto doesn't really do the tie justice. It's gold or maybe orange, I am colourblind afterall.
ReplyDeleteTie looks like the sort of one that even a game show host would be prohibited from wearing because it would strobe like a bastard on camera. Maybe better with vertical pinstripes.
ReplyDeleteYeah yeah, so says the guy in the Carlsberg T-shirt and dodgy Chuck Taylors. I know, I know.
That tie is so hypnotic.
ReplyDelete"Must. kill. Nautilus. Must. kill. Nautilus."
Doc as you point out, you are the last bloke I will be taking fashion tips from:)
ReplyDeleteBBA - You are confused, you should be getting the message "Must. Send. Cash. To. Nautilus."
Tie looks ok - maybe better with a plain blue shirt!
ReplyDeleteSorry to be so mundane, but the ladders on top of the van suggest the possibility of a drain rod service to me.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, you’d better watch out for moiré patterns appearing in digital photos with that tie – eye-catching though.
Possibly it stands for 'drillrod', which is a mild insult, at least around these parts.
ReplyDeleteAnd remember what ZZ Top says-'Every girl's crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man!'
Sulks was the last company to make moire ties. Sad to see them go down the gurgler - such is progress
ReplyDeleteSulka - even!
ReplyDeleteLerm - You said it was ok as long the width of the stripes was different to the pin-stripe!
ReplyDeleteSimon - That's not a commonly used term over here.
YD - Again not a term commonly used here.
Lerm/Simon - I hade to look up what moire was.
Dr. Rod is a porn star, and he is on his way to a film shoot. Because of the type of business, not only is he the star, he's also the set designer (hence the ladders) and the fluffer.
ReplyDeleteThat Steve, is entirely plausible. Which is of course enough for me to believe it completely.
