Favoriting June 19, 2024: Hi-Waisted Modernists #280 - Dear Lupin


On today's Hi-Waisted Modernists with DJ GeorgyGirl, I'll be reading from Roger Mortimer's "Dear Lupin" - a collection of letters to his son, Charlie. Roger Mortimer was the racing correspondent for The Sunday Times, and the letters reflect his Britishness, genuine caring and concern for his often wayward son, and his very wicked sense of humour.

That birthday letter reminded me of Rimmer's quote: "When you're younger you can eat what you like, drink what you like, and still climb into your 26" waist trousers and zip them closed. Then you reach that age, 24-25, your muscles give up, they wave a little white flag, and without any warning at all, you're suddenly a fat bastard."
