Great blog. This article is brilliant. Love the little contemporary details… the leather telephone book and the racing news.

I love the descriptions:
‘The Hard Man’ is ‘carelessly dressed, untidy’
‘The Office Wolf’ is ‘often sloppy dresser’
‘The nice guy’ is ‘often a casual dresser’
‘The career Machine’ is ‘well dressed, impeccably groomed’
and ‘The Earnest Bod’ is a ‘ dull dresser’
Eh…. they’re all the same guy, dressed exactly the same with the same hair!
Excellent blog BTW. A bit of a hoarder are you? I particularly like the 80s band stuff. I played in a band in the 80s a little down the road from Dundalk.
