    If you have clothes you haven't really worn you must have been a bit of a dandy in the past. I have to admit to having worn all of mine regularly, though my red weskit with the shiny back got a few looks askance when I wore it around school! The...

    Have to say I am a bit jealous in that any clothes I wore before retirement and a little while after I could no longer get into, except for shirts and sweaters. Jackets would not button up and trews wouldn't get anywhere near fastening. The diff...
