A couple of recent purchases
I was very happy to be invited to a friend's wedding last weekend, due to recent weight loss I have found that none of my jackets fit so I was contemplating the purchase of a new jacket and waistcoat from Scotland. As the day arrived and I was getting closer and closer to crunch time I happened to be driving past William Glen & Sons here in Toronto and I saw the sign below on the sidewalk:

I could not pull over fast enough they had my new size and so I purchased a new set in Lovat Green. I decided to get the waistcoat altered before the big day for a straight bottom instead of the long tails that came with it. I think that was the best way to go. Darren told me that these jackets and many more, he has sizes up to the 50's, were found in a box at the head office hidden in a room that had not been opened for 15 years or so, which explains the price, there are several left by the way.


I also purchased these new hose from North of Hadrian's Wall which worked wonderfully.
