At a time of the year with dipping temperatures, does it not strike you odd to see the number of men wearing short trousers, without knee-length socks?
Postmen risking dog attack, show-offs from a recent foreign holiday, or bravado, what can be the reason for this odd behaviour?
My grandfather would have been wearing longjohns tucked into his socks and wearing working trousers kept up by braces, and knew how to stay warm and healthy.
