The fashion police are badly needed before this gets out of hand... Amen! Glad to see someone else agrees. I needed to buy some new shorts/pants the other day and for the life of my could not find a pair which did not go below my knees. I am ok with baggies (shorts that end just above the knee) but this down-to-the-ankles nonsense is ridiculous. Wear trousers if you want long pants, otherwise wear shorts. Then again I seem to be a dying breed walking around the Waterfront in my shorts. I once had a girl ask me if I was a Rugby player because I had shorts on. No! I just like shorts ok! *Paul calms down*

    Shorts, to me, mean pants just long enough to keep you from getting arrested. Blue jeans cut off at a point just below the bottom of the pockets are about right.

Some UK tourists were told to go have a look at the Big Tree in Tsitsikamma. Apparently they drove for hours looking for a sign saying "Big Tree." Eventually they stopped and asked someone who pointed to a road sign saying "Groot Boom." They had driven past it at least 5 times never realising. Poor buggers :-D

      Those road signs should really be replaced by tourist friendly ones now that sanctions are a thing of the passed! :laugh:

        Just curious if you lot like wearing hats or not? Anything from a peak to a cap to a floppy or koos hat is fine. I used to have a Zimbabwean Elephant leather fishing hat back when I was younger. But when I grew up I objected to having the skin of a dead animal on my head. Since then I just don't wear hats (even backwards caps, how retarded is that anyway?)

            I used to wear a baseball cap nonstop. Of course, I used to play baseball nonstop, too. Now I sport the shaved-head look. :-D Jon Sagara The world is my burrito.

              The kids wear them because all the 'hip-hop' stars dress that way. The ironic thing is, the story I heard is that the style got started in prisons; it made the 'girls' more accessible. :rolleyes::wtf::laugh:

                          Hats make me look like a jerk so I don't bother unless I'm on the water 'cause I burn very easily and go rather red (see my bio pic for an example :)), in which case I have a stupid looking cowboy-type hat which always gets a laugh. -- Andrew.
