Meet Basil Seal

- the Man About Mayfair

Didi
Sir Basil Seal dose not know me, nor have I met him to speak with him in person or even online; I am like a passer by on the street who has just passed his house which is addressed at http://manaboutmayfair.blogspot.com/.

However, to gain entry into his exclusive premises at that address, you may have to type it into Dogpile Search engine, as he doesn't advertise his domain on Google or Yahoo and if you type it into Google Blog Search or even Blogger search engine, nothing unique will present itself. Indeed, sir Basil Seal dwells in the exclusive province of the upper class blogsphere. Even leaving a comment is not advised, although he dose permit anonymous comments, he is not likely to leave you a reply, as Sir Basil Seal admits himself, he is 'a snob' and will only associate in that league.

On his blog is a poster of a man who resembles Alfred Hitchcock or Winston Churchill who stands in profile view at the top right of the window with a long, slender cigar in his mouth. The poster is a link which leads you to another of his websites - A legion of Well Dressed Men. What I find very intriguing, as I ramble past his domain each day, is his old fashioned ways. When he regards his spouse, he calls her 'the baroness' and his use of language is rather like something in a Charles Dickens novel. In addition he seems to have had his portrait painted and he looks within it not unlike any other aristocrat from 150 years ago who now hangs in your nearest art gallery.

Scroll down and you are presented with a list of his exclusive blogging circle, and further down, with a list of some of the worlds most exclusive shops for mens clothing, toiletry's, and all manner of undivided garb. So, if you are a young male snob, pay a visit to Basil Seal and be a part of The Legion of Well Dressed Men; or, if you are a male social dilettante, Sir Basil Seals blog is worth a read, it is a course book in how to be a prig.
