The fact the tonics came about 3 years after my first Ben Sherman button down is something I'll never forgive my mum for. | | | |

My first job was £50 a week, used to give my mum a fiver spend about a teemed in the pub at the weekend (65p a pint) and spend the rest on pringle jumpers, lacoste shirts etc, once spent £50 on an ellese shirt that was superb, equivelant of spending a couple of hundred on a shirt these days. | |

Best Pair of Trousers you ever had.... on 09:33 - Oct 4 with 2169 views | HantsR | I had two pairs of Levis that felt great and fitted perfectly. I felt great wearing them. Sadly, they were nicked from a suitcase in Tanzania. The replacements were sent to me but these were in turn stolen from my accommodation in Pemba Island, using fishing rod technique through a louvred window. As a result, I had to work around the island, often in rough areas wearing shorts and developed septic wounds on my legs that were actually more serious than I realised!

Best Pair of Trousers you ever had.... on 09:39 - Oct 4 with 2165 views | Discodroids | had an equisite bespoke pair 42 inch waist of 3/4 length buck skin ,128 button pantaloons,circa 1805. eschewing the more garish knee high breeches which were in vougue at the time. i certainly cut a certain exquisite propriety back in the day, nikfop krancjar being the modern day exponent .it took me 5 hours to dress every day but the result was worth it.. also had a lovely pair of tartan vivien westwood fetish trousers with safety pins in them from 'sex'circa 1976.used to go and watch joe orton plays with marco perroini in them. wild times. i did have a pair of sky blue high wasted flares that teamed up as part of a safari my mum made me wear on the first day odf secondary school...status as a cnt was secured for the remainder of my school days. actually had a diesel pair of trousers which were called 'wa nker pants' which will not surprise many of you. these days can be found in my treehouse compiling detailed files on my neighbours in fat face jeans of any nature.
