Linen clothes - rantette

[gingerjedi]

I bought a very sharp looking, and expensive, may I add, linen suit in Venice.

Looked good in the shop, looked good on the hanger in my wardrobe.

Didn't last the 9 minutes that your's did Pogle.

Complete waste of money.

Linen's only good for tea-towels IMO.

I know what you mean, it looks fine when you leave for work but after a 90 minute commute you arrive looking like Martin Bell on a particularly grueling 'breaking news' trip to the Middle East when he only had 10 minutes to pack.

Just use the ones that you bought last year If they still fit

Naw they're all too big now

Try harder when ironing them. Iron them while slightly damp

I'll be sure to pass that on to Mrs. BB

Well, yes. and that.

Starting to get very sunny and warm here in Bayern. Looking forward to the crop-tops and low-cut blouses coming out....

i fully agree, Munich is GREAT in summer

Every bloomin year I do this!
The minute It gets sunny I go out and buy linen trousers & tops - which look great for exactly 9 mins 13 secs - then they look as if you've slept in them for 12 weeks

Why do I do this?
I have discovered spray starch - which does help when you iron them, but It only puts off the inevitable 'bag lady' look

Do men have similar wardrobe annoyances..

I suspect not.

Ps - VERY bored

I'm wearing a linen-silk mix jacket at the moment. Keeps it's shape very well. This is my recommendation. Fantastic fabric. Not in the least bit cheap though.

Plain linen is garbage unless you're on a beach in the Carribean.

Englischergarten is a must mate. Especially the Biergarten by the Chinese tower. You can settle down under a tree with a nice Mass of beer, shades on and just, well, err.... watch the world go by.

Just gotta be careful not to end up the other end though, you know, where all the oldies let it all hang out.

Eeww!!

You don't need a suit for the Englischer Garten.

Certainly puts Wetherspoons to shame.
