Just another "Dress-Down Friday" at the office
We have a dual celebration today - it's not just the end of another week, with a sunny weekend (again?) ahead - but it is also the 75th birthday today of (possibly) the last surviving "Godfather of Funk", the wonderfully eccentric Mr George Clinton!
What better way to start the celebrations than (once again) in the company of the divine Legs & Co - who else but these ladies would choose to pay tribute to the great man and his classic One Nation Under A Groove by gyrating around in panties and GI uniforms..?

“The great George Clinton is the father of this funk mothership" said Prince.
Indeed, say I.
I feel one degree away from him. I once sat next to a former groupie of his....she was most entertaining.
