Box pleats, oh how I hate thee.

Having trouble with your kilt, Prof?

Having trouble not being an overweight midget who needs box pleats on my shirts because I'm too lazy to control my eating. Literally every oxford I've been looking at has a box pleat, making the actual body of the shirt about 2x too big.

 

spend some money on tailoring/taking in the sides + sleeves need be. problem solved  :D

Well...it's a traditional feature on and oxford cloth shirt. That's the look - they're not really supposed to figure hugging. Of course, if they are still too big for your tastes it easy to get them taken in.

I understand. I'm just having a whinge. Having to wait a week before you can wear anything as it's getting altered kind of gets a little old. Just having a little rant.

with time constraints Spring st will be the go for a beard trim

grab a coffee across the road from it also bud, Maxwells makes decent coffee. I rate the breakfast toasts highly also.

I expect the Government will announce this afternoon it will not alter the tax-free import threshold of $1,000, and will address inefficiencies in import mechanisms.

Stay tuned for wailing from out of touch retailers - and my favourite rent seeker and race horse owner - Gerry Harvey.

But it's closed tomorrow and Sunday.

It is so hot. Who thought that global warming would be a great idea?

Do you sail as well DB? The Gold Coast is pretty lack luster for sailing. There are plenty of great races down here in Sydney. That picture depicts pleasure sailing, which has a target audience of consisting of retirees. I prefer to go a bit faster.

If a wedding has a dress-code of "cocktail" and starts at 6.00pm at a posh restaurant, what do you think that means? I suspect the groom will suit/no tie, but not sure.

I assume that would mean black bow-tie and tux.
