A public holiday in London today… the last one of the Summer.
The last one in fact until Winter is with us and we celebrate Christmas.
So what better way to go out than with a bang, a whoop, a scream, a whirl and a whoosh of steam?
The whoosh in fact of Carter’s Steam Fair which took up it’s customary place on ‘the East End’s lungs’: Victoria Park today.
Do enjoy the colours, and a few perfumed proposals, some serious, some just fragrant fun… just like the fair itself.

So there we have it… a few scented snaps.
I wonder whether all the connections are evident?
Perhaps some are a little puzzling.
But then The Dandy does like a riddle…
“Why is a raven like a writing desk?”
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy.
