My fellow Duranians,

it was just a casual chat between Larry and Stanislav on a completely different podcast where I heard them talking about fashion and German "fashion" where I commented about how we actually only have one, and that´s Lederhosen, but honestly, that´s just Bavarian, so it is true that we only violate that word when we put on the sandals with SOCKS ! A hideous abomination in any eye, even to most Germans themselves.

The last time we proved to the world we had real fashion, it didn´t turn out too well, albeit that the Hugo Boss uniforms were very snappy looking but negatively places on the thugs of the SS and so on.

In any case we had a delightful chat yesterday, more about a lot of ado about nothing and eventually did veer into the world of geopolitics.

I hope you enjoy and I look forward to inviting both gentlemen again to do :
Fashion á la Carte 2.0 😅

Of course, the work was done by Iranian workers.

I have been on this road when the traffic suddenly stopped. A car 100m ahead had fallen off the unprotected ledge. Everyone got out of the cars. I saw the car still tumbling down the 80 degree gradient.

Another story. We knew a young Persian couple. She was the mistress of a famous married general. She took a Mercedes out of the royal car pool. The boyfriend drove it like a maniac. On their return from the Caspian, the car left the road. Luckily, a tree prevented a catastrophe. They were rescued. The Gendarmerie arrived. When they saw the number plate of the car, they were ...
