There are so many gentlemen in this group (> 13,000) but only a handful are active contributors to the discussions. It would be interesting to know the geographical distribution of these contributors. Here is the poll. Where do you live? This is part 1, there's more to come.

Hi everyone, Apologies for being MIA, I have been very busy. But I'm back again. I have a ball on Wednesday with the theme of "A night in the Sahara". I have a few questions for you about this: 1. Would you opt for a navy or black suit? (Navy - office suit, black - tuxedo) 2. Brown shoes or black? 3. what are your thoughts on the attached waistcoat? 4. floral bow tie? Will send a pic later. Many thanks, Lachlan

Hello Gents (and I believe a couple of Ladies as well). I am just wondering who has made the jump to premium and if you haven't, do you plan to? Are you on the fence?

I'm not sure if I am alone in questioning this, but why is it that women receive dozens to hundreds of comments on their posts, when I might scrape 10? And no this does not include Linkedin. Not sure if there are any women in this group, but if there are, I'd be very interested to know. And I would also suggest that if any of you guys in your 20s have close female friends or girlfriends that you ask them too. I'm just very intrigued by it all.

No reason to get dressed up today. I just felt like it.
