Abercrombie & Fitch ~ Savile Row protest London

[Warden]

I did have a read through the various threads but could not see a mention of our brave chaps trying to hold up standards in London.

I mean where will this end a 'Superdrug' in Harley Street?

Pleased to see it even got a mention over the pond http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/europe/chaps-in-tweeds-protest-abercrombie-and-fitch-opening-on-londons-famed-savile-row/2012/04/23/gIQAxC29bT_story.html

I can think of about sixty malls I'd like to do this at...

I would join you except that our malls are reeking with that perfume that A&F squirts out every minute or so. I got a screaming headache last time I was in one (say two years ago). You can smell that stuff about 100 yards away. I couldn't work there, I'd die.

Unfortunately I couldn't make the protest, but I signed the petition. Were any London based Loungers able to attend?

Couldn't get off work yesterday, I'm afraid. Signed the petition though. I know a lot of people in those photos - it's good to see such support.

Now, if the so called "Occupy" protesters looked this good, well it is safe to say there would have been a different and better outcome.

Cheers!

The music blasting from Abercrombie has kept me from ever considering a look inside.
