yep, fraid so, not sailors this time, just some vintage boytouching friendships.
A fabulous real cowboy shot amongst them! I think I love the facial expressions as much as anything (though the touchy feely is good too!)

love them. yeah the group photo with one of the men practically lying in another one's lap... so cute! and the sailors are totally doing it. and the bowler hat pair (second to last) have a lovely 'couldn't care less' Oscar Wilde groove going on.
