      Probably true, if being a a contractor means basing your identity on your income and self-worth on showing other people how wealthy you are.

          Like FLC has ever been in Holland and Barrett. He meant his suit with HP stains down the front from his bacon and sausage breakfast buttie.

            Was in London over the weekend and, I'll admit it, I enjoy shopping and used to enjoy popping over once a year because you could get pretty good stuff and there was a variety. Seems that way no longer but did pick up some nice shirts from Penguin (I like them because it makes me look geeky yet strangely fashionable) and the rest was non-standard like a beautiful Paisley silk shirt and a Gabbachi vintage cord shirt from a small mod outfit who also measured me up for a really rather spiffing 3 piece purple mohair suit which will match one of the new pairs of DMs I also picked up. Also bought 2 packets of stick on mustaches for some strange reason


            (also the trip involved being filmed by the BBC at a small venue/party with members of The Boys and Hollywood Brats but I was wearing Desigual that evening...)

            I forgot, I do have a nice coat from Nicole Farhi which was priced at 2 grand but picked it up in the sales for 700, actually I have quite a few coats but hardly wear them tending more to just jackets. Current faves are a Paul Smith bomber jacket and a Pepe one along with a very resilient Swiss thingy...

            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              My winter coat is a 3/4 length Jaeger coat - £15 in a charity shop. Brand new.
