Wise AND vaguely presentable?

As this has been bumped back up with no takers yet.....

Is it just me who feels a bit uncomfortable at being asked to consider if I'm vaguely presentable?

Just a thought.

I agree with you Notso. Vaguely presentable indeed! Blooming cheek!

Do you have to qualify on both counts wise and vaguely presentable , dont know if I can manage both!!!!

I wonder what Gransnet HQ/The Radio Times/the photographer would consider to be NOT vaguely presentable?

Now that is patronising! And guess what, gransnetters don't like it.

Would presentable and vaguely wise do?

Who decides what is presentable?

Who decides what is wise?

How about just vague ?

Geraldine......yer on a sticky wicket..............I've long since realized that unless one is Jane Austen, irony in print is jolly difficult!

GeraldineGransnet...I would like to say that I am not at all 'put out' by the wording of your request. It was intended to be light-hearted. If I did not live in such a remote region of the UK, I would willingly, cheerfully and without hesitation put myself forward. Happy hunting!

Geraldine, its ok. We're only pulling your leg.
