Sartorial hiatus

One of the joys of being based in the country is not having to bother with the sartorial. I had two of my fellow village friends (also in exile from London for the Christmas season) over for tea & cake and we admitted that we hadn't washed our hair since Christmas Day, had eschewed any make up, and were wearing an assembly of clothes that were kept at home purely for wearing in the country. K, in particular, was wearing her father's extremely manky Barbour which I would put money on her never wearing in Hackney. I'm rather enjoying not bothering, but fear this mode of living may become rather too enjoyable....
