The Home Counties Brigade.
Female. Travel in packs of between two and six. Favour travelling in to Town from the outlying counties (Kent, Surrey, Essex, Middlesex) by train in order to spend a day a month shopping in the better department stores. The Home Counties brigade are easy to spot. Look out for straw hats with pleated navy calf-length skirts and cardigans with gold buttons. Usually carrying at least two of the following: *Selfridges bag *Harrods bag *Fortnum and Mason bag *Debenhams bag *Allders bag *Viyella bag *Edinburgh Woollen Mill bag. These extremely well-spoken ladies like nothing better than to cut through parks so they've had their dose of fresh air for the day and exhaustedly (shopping is good exercise- whatever they may say) finishing their day with a jolly cappucino, natter and comparing purchases with the rest of the Brigade. Hubby's paying, so they give good tips.
