Wonderful photos of your Grandparents, they were very smartly dressed. It's a shame you can't get hold of your Grandfather's trousers.<br /><br />Thanks for perusing my blog by the way :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6655974554267650893.post-88071338148472700052012-10-30T08:18:37.577+00:002012-10-30T08:18:37.577+00:00I think Mim is right, best sunday wear became ever...I think Mim is right, best sunday wear became everyday trousers and everyday trousers then became patched and mended 'work wear' for the veg garden, then went on to become rags for cleaning I should imagine.

Being the vertically challenged chap that I am, I have the opposite problem although there is always the option of alterations. Savvy Row is an emporium to behold, when I have to cash to splash, I will certainly be browsing their fine selection of gentlemanly apparel. I find it too much of a tease to look when I can't click 'add to basket'.G.M.
