Anyone need an interview suit?   

St Oswald's Hospice Shop at FourLaneEnds has a Geeves&Hawkes of Saville Row charcoal pinstripe for £10, it's a 40R which won't fit anyone in this house even if they'd wear it.   

The cloth feels as soft as silk. Luvverly bitta shmutter.

Tylebach Have you got a photo hun, and what size is the jacket?

Bentonbag  It said 40R on the label and I'm not sure whether that's waist or chest - I assumed chest - either way no use to any of my boys, or even me

Also Asda Benton has lined lumberjack shirts/jackets at £4 each - mostly in large and XL sizes - but only in red/black check. We now have one each and I know what next year's Xmas photo will look like.

Some readers may wonder why a good Catholic girl would use a Yiddish word for clothing.   

Blame childhood listening to radio programmes such as Round The Horne with writers like 

Marty Feldman.  He also had his own tv sketch shows.  Then there was The Rag Trade on tv.  

Not forgetting the work and influence of the wonderful Barry Cryer.
