Of course. A fellow got rather irate with me when he asked about the shirt. I told him that the Mrs had made it. He seemed to be angling for her to make him one. So when I said that the fabric was almost £50, the notions, that's the paper pattern, buttons, needles, thread, lining, stiffener and other ancillary items came to £15, then ten hours labour, at £20 an hour, he more or less accused me of ripping him off. "When did I try selling you a shirt?" I asked, but he just went on and on, and said that he could get one for twenty pounds. It was like a red flag to a bull when I said: "Well off you go then."You rock! Love the shirts, most are made by the Mrs.?
