Fashion.

Certain youths have been tucking their tracksuit trousers into their socks for about 5 years round these parts. When not wearing tracksuits they do the same thing with their school trousers. Sadly I once saw someone who must have been 50+ doing the same thing. And no, he wasn't about to get on his bike.

But does it only look ridiculous to us 'oldies'. After all, I used to dye my hair black or red, or bleach it. I used to crimp it and spend ages making sure it was vertical. I wore drainpipe trousers and DM's, stripey mohair jumpers and followed punk. I still only feel really comfortable when I'm wearing Converse, jeans, a black t-shirt and an oversized jumper. The young people I work with call me 'The Man In Black'.
