Rog Peyton was appalled by the togas in the bar on Friday night at Paragon 2. It's not the fandom he used to know, apparently.

Somebody apparently complained about the nipplage on show at the toga party, which is fair comment, because Roman men didn't go around flashing their tits either. The notes in the PR4 about wearing a tee-shirt underneath weren't there for nothing.

Yes, I do include myself in this group...
