Home computer's been off-line for a few days. Meanwhile, I acquired and or passed over some truly outrageous bits of gentlemen' s finery. We have a lot to talk about....
You, my friend, are a pernicious influence. I got the American-made Pendleton Blackwatch suit--it still had the original card explaining the history of the pattern in one of the pockets!
No way I'll ever wear it as a suit, or even the pants (which have jeans-style pockets)--so I'm gonna get the pants made into a vest.
Mr G I love your blog, I have been a thrift shopper for years. The thrill of the find is a lot of the pleasure. Also getting a Jos A Banks great coat for $7.99 is hoot too.
