Straddle the line, discord and rhyme
My wife just bought one to do our house with and it's brought the carpets up a treat. Bulky though which is worth bearing in mind if storage space is limited.

It's pretty good. Heavy, but effective.

Buying the jacket and waistcoat will give me many options. It's not just about a single suit. The jacket will go with most of my pants and the pants will go with most of my jackets etc. 🧐

Well I'm quite willing to keep calling them trousers, but pants is quite acceptable when referring to the more casual trousers. 🧐

Not if they are of the ' String' variety, to go with , Rab.C.Nesbitt ensemble.
Don't forget the soiled head bandage and a rolled up copy of the Glasgow Herald.

This is outrageous.
Pants are underwear.

That's definitely a PANTS remark,
As far as I am concerned SHORTS ,are Summer wear, a stylish Bermuda , if casual, worn with calve length socks and dessert boots, but not sandals, if wearing sandals no socks.
If riding a bicycle ,then lycra bib shorts with a cycle jersey.
I'd feel a bit of a dick wearing those.

To me those outfits are more costume than everyday wear, but I do like that chap on the right's teddy bear prop. They have three quite old teddy bears for around £40 each in Accrington Antiques. According to the shop's owner, they were found in the attic, when clearing out an old lady's house after she died. They always say stuff like that don't they when selling such things.
Anyway, wherever they are from they do look quite old and very well made. I looked to see if any had a Steiff label. None did, but I still might buy one as a prop. What do you think 🤔By the way, the one behind his right shoulder with the green hat looks like he went into a charity shop to find his none matching costume. Made even worse by his shirt's top button undone and his tie's knot slovenly tied.

Seriously, you're intending to walk round Accrington and vicinity, dressed the way you do and carrying a teddy bear?To me those outfits are more costume than everyday wear, but I do like that chap on the right's teddy bear prop.

Are you trying to hook up with that female PCSO again?

Sorry about the thread drift but... Yates of Malton is fantastic. It's the only place I know where you can get a five bar gate, some sheep dip, a haircut and a cooked breakfast under the same roof.
