John....... glad you got them in time and like the colour :-)
It was only the postage it cost me... got them on a rabbit run but thought they would be useful....
Ted .. you can use it as camoflage and hide amongst the bluebells - hehe.... much prettier than our old Khaki BD....
Emilie..... if you get a new suit... make sure its a trouser suit on a vessel which goes underwater.... I was below decks on HMS PORPOISE when she was on a good-will visit to Hamburg in the early 70's... (an International submariners meeting organised by the Verband deutscher U-Bootfahrer - hey got the U-boat word in - and I know what a matlot will look for when a lady comes below deck)
Tom.. they are made in the USA ... quite good quality but Obviously not as good as something made in the UK :-))....
In all seriousness....... I hope you folks have a great weekend... sorry I cannot join you..... but... well I can't this year.... saving like mad for a first look inside an aeroplane (yes in spite of everything) for a trip to the George Cross island early next year.......
So if someone emails me mobile numbers or hotel number I will try and give you a call and have a brief chat.........
Good Luck - God Bless...
