Were we at school together " old chap?"

On the site Calais and beyond people collecting for refugees and then sorting before sending on are having a bit of a titter. Biggest joke is me sending the bag of smelly dog beds, dirty dishcloths and old   underwear destined for the tip, to Laura with the other donated material.
Someone is saying they have taken out a big bag of mens ties. Imagine the refugees sporting an old school tie or  the pink and green club tie.( Remind me whose that is?)

The Garrick Club, one of Britain's most exclusive members clubs, could relax its dress code and make tie-wearing optional.
Since the London gentlemen's club was founded in 1831 all members, from Charles Dickens and Edward Elgar to Lord Attenborough and David Suchet, have had to wear appropriate neckwear - frequently the Garrick's official salmon pink and cucumber green tie - to enter the clubhouse in Garrick Street.
