    question about buying suits in london

    Students spending £1200 on a suit?!!? Used to have that to live off for a term.

    Meermin Mallorca Shoes

    Just received my first pair of Meermin, the double monks. But they're absolutely tiny. I'm a UK8 in pretty much everything so, having looked for guidance, ordered a UK8. But they seem nearly half an inch smaller than a pair of Loakes 1880s with a similar last. I'm wondering whether to skip and...

     Absolute bastards in the ACT. They did a jumper of mine that I left in the laundry basket for a couple of days.

    Where to buy shoes in London

    For the money you're looking at, Tyrwhitt (loads of branches but the biggest's on Jermyn St (Green Park tube)) or Discount Shoes on Strutton Ground, off Victoria Street (Victoria or St James Park tube). Not been Discount Shoes in ages but they've always had a plenty of cheaper Loakes and...

    Where to buy flannel/tweed trousers in London

    Edinburgh tweed specialists Walker Slater have a branch in London. Their tweed strides should be the sort of price you're after. They're in Fulham, a few mins out of the city centre (Parsons Green tube or Putney Bridge tube). The London store is smaller and with more limited stock than the...

    stained shoe

    Just so you can gloat at my misfortune?!? Don't have them with me but I'll see what I can do later.

    stained shoe

    I have noticed a dark, purplish splodge on my C&J Westbournes which I suspect to be red wine. The shoes were lightish brown but, even though I've been using burgundy polish on them for a while, the mark is dark enough to be very noticeable. Is this going to getting the shoes dyed a darker...

    Traveling from Aberdeen to Northampton, UK

    In Edinburgh, Walker Slater in Victoria Street (old town) is definitely worth a swatch. Always drop by when I'm 'back hame'. Jenners is a pale imitation of the old institution sadly but Harvey Nichols (St Andrew Square) is worth a look too. There's a small Ede & Ravenscroft in Frederick Street...

    WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

     Problem with the current fashion for moderately classic stuff is responses like you've just had. Looking forward the Hoxton set getting bored with Barbours so I can start wearing them again.

     Thank you again for your considered opinion on the game north of the border and for labelling most of the Scots football-supporting population 'scum'. None of us has enough cash to waste on bombs at the moment.

     The Aberdeen fans might dispute it, given their League and European success in the 80s, but Hearts have historically been third in terms of support, wealth, etc. Hibs were invincible in the 50s but have largely been gash since.

     Credit where credit's due: the hairy backs beat Barca the last time they met in Glasgow (1-0. scored off a free kick from Nakamura).

     Everton aside, I doubt that very very much. Top three's settled already, Spurs, Arsenal and Everton for fourth. Some of the teams you mention will be battling for Europa places but if that includes Swansea then Laudrup can have any job in football he wants. For the few of you who might...

     They could have one that three or four nil and it wouldn't have flattered them. Clearly not firing on all cylinders but they absolutely bossed the game. Gooners a bit twitchy after a bad week?

    WAYWRN: Classic Menswear, Casual Style

     It's fine but not in that combo, IMHO. Besides which the far greater offence is the name that attempts to send an Ivy League, New Englandy message but which is in fact a slang word for the male appendage.

     By your criteria, Forest and Villa trump Derby and they can throw European Cups into the mix as well. More league titles than WBA doesn't make Derby the best team in the midlands. Anyway, you appear to have mistaken me for someone who gives a ****. Used to watch Forest when I was a student...

     I know only too well: as a student many moons ago I shared digs with a Villa fan and a Wolves fan and had a West Brom classmate a couple of doors away. Got very shouty at derby time. Villa were decent enough then (Taylor/Big Ron era) and felt themselves to be the aristocrats of West Mids...

     Long's cross for Morrison's opener was the best seen at the Hawthorns since the days of Wullie Johnston (or so a Baggies-supporting friend assures me). Vying with Stoke to be the best in the midlands though that's not as hard as it used to be given the state of the others.
