Cordings of piccadilly

I discovered the cotton (thank God now with stretch - maybe Cordings market director reads here) trousers made in Italy Cordings offers are same as New & Lingwood's, but notice price difference!
The Polish sales girls who worked there were always very nice to ask for advice by email, but the new girl didn't like my jokes about my dream to meet an English girlfriend with red hair and green eyes and when I phoned simply transferred me to the big boss who told me Cordings doesn't want customers like me and refused to give me a second chance. But I still admire Cordings! 2

Dear Dauster,

I guess the Cordings email correspondent felt I harassed her by my jest or that it was racist - I don't know, because neither she nor the big boss bothered to explain to me my crime.

But the boss did mention he was also displeased I had told her predecessor (a nice lady who recommended Cordings keeper's tweed as indestructible beast) what happened to my new N & L cornflower lightweight flannel jacket after disco dancing and how the flannel mill director and his own secretary reacted when I complained to him his flannel expert R. had said nothing about sweat when I wrote the mill to ask how to care for flannel - R. simply replied to care for it as one would care for any luxury cloth. When I sent photos of my jacket the secretary and director told me not to roll up my sleeves, I at once recognized this explanation as implausible since I never roll up my jacket sleeves. Fortunately, a womens clothes shop saleslady in town told me why the flannel surface around armpit to elbows looked like cellulitis ("orange skin"): sweat. When I wrote the mill director this explanation, he added it was salts in the sweat and I never heard from him again. Why that story should upset the Cordings' boss, I don't know.
But he said I always ask questions but seldom buy, which ain't true.

Dear Dauster,

Purdey: I have two jackets and a flat cap and was quite impressed by the serious construction of wide wale cordoroy trousers, of which I wore one pair.

Holland & Holland: Three owners ago
I bought a wonderful brown trilby hat.

Regarding fabrics, I can only warn you lightweight flannel gets ruined by disco dancing sweat, and the owner, director, flannel expert and secretaries of the flannel mill tried to conceal the truth why my jacket was ruined and took no responsibility for failing to properly advise me when I requested advice how to care for my first and last flannel jacket.
