Observations, continued

7) There are lots of women in England who don't know what "age appropriate" means.

While young English men and women take fashion risks, unfortunately, some of the old ones do too and the risk is DANGEROUS. I saw a lot of women my mom's age and up wearing clothing best suited to a younger body and lifestyle. Pookie's dad calls these women "mutton dressed as lamb".
If my mom wore colored leather, stretch pants and heeled boots accompanied by fried and dyed hair I'm pretty sure I'd put a stop to it. We call these women "Cougars" in the U.S. - but Pookie's dad's word "Mutton" is a much better description.
