(I can hardly believe it myself………) And let’s get it out of the way right now: The FOX is never killed or harmed.
Just, ahem, chased.

Anyhow, a local gent I know was telling me every detail of the Hunt, including the specialized clothing. Apparently, the red coats worn by the male riders are known as “pinks”. And, according to my fox-hunting friend, the terminology came from a noted, in-demand tailor, Mr. Pink.

(but, wait a minute! — Doesn’t the Dandy know that it is VERY bad luck to put his hat on
the bed!? )

I’m sure I know him now! What a wonderfully written comic tale of insecurity and self obsession. Loved it.

At breakfast, the dandy story amused me wonderfully. And what was true 200 years ago is just as relevant today — unbelievable.

Love & Peace
