Dress Of The Day with Angela

I had won first place in both the Table Topics contests at Club level, for Harrovians Speakers' Club, which meets at a church near Harrow in the Hill and Harrow station, then for HOD Speakers' Club meeting in South Harrow in the annexe to a church near South Harrow station and bus stop. At the Area Contest I represented Harrovians.  Sandals by Seibel Josef Seibel. Two-colour sandals. Touch and close fastening.  Knitted open front coat Black coat. Seed beads on imitation velvet with small ribbon roses.  The washing tag has the manufacturer's name cut out. I presume this was because the item was given to a charity shop; and the donor wanted to prevent a buyer returning the item to the retailer and claiming a full price refund. Skirt Anthony Sicari.
