Garrr!! I hate you for having arms one inch shorter than mine... and for getting working sleeve buttons on everything!

Lovely suits, though. Great deals, too. I'd totally get some if the arms were longer.

Hello,

Since I am a new member I'm not allowed to PM -- but I would be very pleased to take both #1 (Caruso grey flannel) and #3 (Cantarelli grey pinstripe flannel) if no-one else has beaten me to the punch.

Cheers

Angus.

They all nice suits. Pity they are too small for me. I would have bought them about 10 years ago.
