Well apart from a load of stuff that does not fit me ( it shrunk in the wash :( :o :shock: ) I have trousers casual and dressy, jackets & coats, skirts, dresses and tops, and comfy shoes for walking.

Having a clear out all the things that have shrunk, ready for the charity bag.

I'm going to a birthday party saturday with a 70's theme so i thought great i'll get my flares and tank top and jackets with the big lapels out my wardrobe.
It seems i'm a lot broader round the shoulders and chest than 30 odd years ago!! :roll: Only the platforms shoes still fit!!
So i'm going with a safety pin stuck in my nose and torn jeans as a Punk.Well that's 70's too!!
What i'm trying to say is my wardrobes are full of clothes from the 60's,70's and 80's i can't throw anything away and if my wife threatens me i pretend.
I think it's my insecurity showing up!!

Dozens of trackie dacks and t-shirts.

Plus the overpriced Italian business suits.

No ties. I refuse to wear a tie. In fact, if I was Grand Pooba Of the World, all ties would be burnt.

I agree with you Mark.I have a collection of ties dating back to the 50's(a red one with soldiers on) right up to ten years ago but i haven't worn a tie in years.
What i do wear nowadays are dickie bows i love em.I have them in all colours.
A dickie bow with one of your Italian suits would have the girls trembling Mark!! :wink:
