Does that GIF have a soundtrack, something like "badabadum-tish" ?

Thank You. My loaf is complete.

I was racking my brains for a bread pun to reply with but I have failed.  :'(

BUT IN OTHER NEWS it seems ancient Egyptian dresses are a hot item in the news these days, what with our little thread here, plus THIS fascinating and very short spot about the World's Oldest Dress. What do you think: shabby/not shabby?

How neat!

It looks a bit shabby now, but I'm sure the dress was quite lovely when it was made.

The males in the second version are wealthier looking while the females are poorer looking.

This illustrates the rise of the patriarchy.

Not so for the YOUNGER ones.  The girls are just as well, and the boys just as shabby.

The new boy has styled hair and an expensive dyed shirt, though yes, the lack of shoes and the shorts are the same. The new girl has slightly cropped messy hair and a plainer undyed grey dress whereas the old girl has a pleated dress with more colourful collar.

I HATE that hair. Looks aweful. But I can fix that. The bare feet.. not so much :(
