He lived around the corner from our family home in Clifton Hill, which is weird because neither of my parents even come from Victoria, let alone this area.
He was a brewer, and a travelling salesman. And a Freemason. From which we can infer that he liked drinking, secret handshakes, and cosplay.
Don't you think he looks like he's on his way to a sci-fi convention?
Did the cosplay skip a few generations or do you come from a solid line of cosplayers?
ReplyDeleteAre they gauntlets? How debonair. You don't see that enough these days.
ReplyDeleteMr Brain - what an excellent name.
ReplyDeleteDid you ever play the Happy Families card game with the very creepy illustrations? Mr Brain the Brewer could be straight out of that.
I say, Brain, those are te'bly, te'bly spiffing side-levers you're wearing. I take it that every month is Movember in the Brain household (laughing: fa, fa, fa).
ReplyDeleteHe does look like a retired Colonel from a Philip Reeve novel. Very steampunk.
