      It is not easy to stay one step ahead of you, Tina! I got lucky!

    Dear Errol!
    108 years ago you were born and 58 years ago you left us, only figuratively spoken as you are still with us, today and always!

    Isn’t it interesting how Errol wore styles we have today, way ahead of his time! I have always liked the half turtleneck and sport coat look. Tim the Gent, I also have a collage like the one you have posted. David knows the one and he may post it better than I can or I will later. It may be on the blog somewhere.

      The tide recedes but leaves behind bright seashells on the sand; the sun goes down but gentle warmth still lingers on the land. The music stops and yet it echoes on in sweet refrains… for every joy that passes, something beautiful remains.

      One of my favorite photos too!

      What a great observation about Errol’s way-ahead-of-his-time ways of dressing, tinerider. You’ve inspired me to post a new post featuring Flynn’s dressing excellence. Do you mind if I create a new post aimed at documenting his sartorial sense?
