You've got to agree, it looks like I stood in a gentle summer breeze, coming from a five o'clock direction, when all of a sudden upon my head there stuck a piece of fabric! Imagine the surprise.
Good grief, I need to learn how to do veils. Badly.
When do veils, it's quite the production. Granted, it's an early period type veilable (one tied kerchief style very tightly around to cover all hair, then the head rail & wimple pinned to that). I wind up looking very much the nun! At least people think it looks cool...
Returning to this, I'd just like to point out that proper punctuation can do so much for a person.
I was just listening to Pratchett who writes "They were dead drunk, and currently several others were following them in the hopes of adding that vital comma." (Liberally paraphrased from "Pyramids") In my case I did add that one vital full stop. But never let such trivialities get in the way of a bit of silliness :P
