Was Lord Jim one of the buyers?

Post by Scooter »

LONDON—A turquoise wool suit that Margaret Thatcher wore on the day she was confirmed as Conservative Party leader has sold at auction for 25,000 pounds ($39,670).

An anonymous bidder bought the dress suit by British designer Mansfield, at a Christie’s auction in London late Monday. The auction also sold six other outfits — worn by Thatcher in the 1970s before she became prime minister — to a buyer in South Korea.

Those outfits included a canary yellow dress with navy trim and a matching jacket that the former leader wore to the Conservative Party Conference in 1975; a blush pink outfit Thatcher wore in a BBC show in which she was interviewed on her skin care regime; and a silver and gold cocktail ensemble.

In total, the outfits fetched a little more than 73,000 pounds.
I'm thinking the smart yellow number fits Jim's taste perfectly.

I wonder if they'll auction her iron?
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

Based on the clothes she was not as chunky as she looked.

Alterations are a possibility.

Patterned silk scarf, but only with the right earrings... it all has to compliment his coiffé.
