That's me by next year, minus the shoes.

 

[lancethecook]

I would love

To meet him/ her/ it , no offence meant by the "it" but in my experience it's best to find neutral ground !

 

[rpms]

Nice shoes.

 

[lancethecook]

Or as we British say

Bona bats

 

[michaelman2]

um, maybe some hair conditioner might be in order here.  Other than that...cool.

 

[westingman123]

Nice appliances!

I find the shirt (blouse?) oddly disturbing. We won't discuss the shoes.

The Things You See When You Haven't Got Your Gun

Would love to have her to tea though. Probably one of the more interesting persons one could meet.

 

[kenmore58]

Is it me or does it look like Rosanne Rosanna Danna meets Richard Simmons???

Ron

 

[bajaespuma]

Has to be the guest of honor at the next wash-in.

I can only suggest you were searching for transistor radios and you stopped at "tranny" in the seach criteria box. Needless to say it is FULL of inaccuracies mostly on the dates, bit that the 1950s "Hotpoint Washing Machine" is actually a Parnall Tumble Drier, at least the 1950s is correct. I could go on but my life is ticking away and I have better things to do. By the looks of it the "Viscountess" has a couple of extras that most women do not have ......

[kenmoreguy89]

It Would Take a Movie Studio....

....Thousands of dollars spent on wiggery and costuming plus half a day in the makeup chair to make an actress look like this.

Three words:

[stan]

Never in all my born days

have I seen the likes...
Maybe I should get out of my valley more ?

He could kick the eye out of a snake without touching either side of it's head with those shoes!!

 

[redcarpetdrew]

The appliances are neat but I DIDN'T need to see the lacy unmentionables... That falls under the category of 'Things you can't unsee...' The Viscountess reminds me vaguely of one of the Monty Python actors..

Some nights of rest..the next day..it's how I feel and might look if I don't get more rest...
My Nana (from Newcastle-on-Tyne) would say ,

"oh, my!" and might add, "Close the shutters, Willie's dead".

Street legal ?

Presumably she hauls all those treasures home in a Vauxhall Viscount, though I'd think a two-tone Cresta PA would suit her better.

I love the quilted jacket; she's not so much dressed as she's upholstered.

One of the stoves Boudica is using-there is a link on the "film Tech" forum about a 1937 British cooking promo film that shows a range so similar to the one Boudica has.The film is kinda interesting-the woman promoting the stove is wearing a fur!

 

[verizonbear]

And I thought

Halloween is Thursday ?

"Oh the things you see, when you haven't got your gun".

 

[mikeklondon]

Made in England

She Looks stupendously eccentric would love to meet

 

[2packs4sure]

As Justin Wilson would say

Don't that purdy !

 

[laundromat]

It's GBs version of 'Pat'.

 

[peterh770]

Pats... Sweetie darling... Pass me the Boli and some nibbly bits...

 

[robliverpool]

Westinghouse in the 60's. I can just see her/him draped over the latest washer promoting sales lol

 

[redcarpetdrew]

I had to find the Monty Python cast member that the Viscountess seemed similar to... With SINCERE apologies to Eric Idle...
