Fancy you remembering that, Bear! Actually, I use it quite often, usually when wearing a black kilt whilst on duty with The National Trust at Petworth House. Being so much on public display whilst stewarding the rooms, I probably get more questions there about my kilts than anywhere else. Also, it's not unknown for me to be mistaken for Lord Egremont by visitors who may be aware that the Egremont family still lives in part of the house - though, I have never seen His Lordship wearing the kilt!!
Ham,
I love a clever play on words. If I'd thought of it myself I'd use it on my site for my black fabric.
I'll see if I can come up with something but it will be tough to beat yours.
