I have one by Birthday - It used to be snug fitting but now seems a bit saggy and could do with a bit of ironing as it's looking more and more creased every day.

Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

House of Fraser. Can't remember the make but it's a nice double vented grey pinstripe.
I have a cheaper one from Suits you but it's crap and I hate wearing it.
I also have a black M & S - bought for a funeral but it does the job in the office...Older and ...well, just older!!Comment

Austin Reed do a very nice line in bespoke suiting. £850 for a suit with 2 trousers . I think it's a super 110 cloth.
I've just tried Raja fashions (the Hong Kong tailor who visits the UK). Fit on the first go was abysmal, and to be honest not a great service. Cloth is probably better than AR, for the same price."See, you think I give a tulip. Wrong. In fact, while you talk, I'm thinking; How can I give less of a tulip? That's why I look interested."Comment

I have a set of red ones from last year, so I can swop back an forth on alternate days.
