Whatcha’ll look like now, hmmmm?

No motorbikes or babies I’m afraid, just me enjoying the summer, taken a few weeks agoView attachment 248015
You look fabulous, then again, so does the rest of the forum members who have posted their lovely photos. This was taken in the summer, we were at a fabulous weekend festival with our vintage MG car. If I've posted it previously, indulge me, age and memory are not good bed fellows.

Thank you horseless carriage, and I agree about our fellow members, it’s nice to put faces to names, incidentally I enjoy all your photographs, you are both so stylish and impeccably dressed
 
My wife thinks we are a pretty close match. If you don't know who is in the picture, it's Efrem Zimbalist, Jr. from the TV series, "The FBI." I do have some gray around the edges now, but still have a full head of hair (much lighter than Efrem's) as did my dad and uncles. My doctor told me not long ago that I shouldn't lose much more or maybe no more hair, but my friend was told the same thing by his doctor and now he is about 50% bald. I always enjoyed this show, even though I only ever saw the repeats.

No, I think I remember you from, 77 Sunset Strip.
 
This morning I couldn't find my specs, thinking that I had picked up my spare pair I later found that I had my vintage glasses. I came across them at one of the many festivals we like going to. My optician put my prescription into the frames. All my glasses have what's called a photochromic lens. It's an optical lens that darkens on exposure to light of sufficiently high frequency, most commonly ultraviolet. My right eye is very sensitive to sunlight. In keeping with their vintage these 'old' specs don't have that.

"Toht!" I heard at work this morning. "Who?" Asked another colleague. "Toht," I said, smiling, "he's referring to Major Toht, brilliantly portrayed by actor, Ronald Lacey." When Indiana Jones was mentioned all became clear. I don't look like Ronald Lacey, but I can see how my glasses can give that same air of menace that Lacey so skillfully portrays.
