    Good Morning Mr Cumberworth. Nice whistle, Sir, but I was just wondering where you ascertained the manufacture date from? If you are referring to the '32' shown on the label, I believe that is the the trouser waist size, when it left Monty's Emporium anyway. Any chance of a photo of the...

    3-piece... DB jacket with DC waistcoat. Too much or awesome?

    WAISTCOATS Hello All. The waistcoat was "invented" so that the wearer could remove his jacket without showing his braces/suspenders, which were considered underwear and were not to be exposed in public. I attend many "1940's" themed events in the UK and the number of chaps who think their...

    3-piece... DB jacket with DC waistcoat. Too much or awesome?

    DB WAISCOAT Hello, As one does not wear a DB jacket open/unbuttoned, you are only going to see the waistcoat when the jacket is removed/not worn, so DB/SB waiscoats are surely a matter of personal preference. Poodletip HH

    Time Warp Wives

    FORESIGHT HELLO FLETCH/ALL. To be fair, the producer did want to make this programme as a "couples thing", but one of the chaps had the foresight to not get involved too heavily, only enough to show that his partner (not wife, not yet anyway), was not some freak loner. I went into...
