Hopefully a Perfect Fit!

This past Friday afternoon, July 31st 2009 I finally dragged Barry to the men's tailor
a friend recommended. I had been once with a favorite shirt of his and some fabric to
have another one made "same-same". It came out okay but the issues with it were
mostly all to do with the fabric we had selected.
I had been wanting to take him there to be fit for a suit for there are no stores here we can go in and purchase one for him in is size. As Barry says, I live in the land of Lilliputians where all the clothes are made for them! He picked out a lovely light weight dark grey wool and Barry him started conversing. He was right at ease by seeing the finished suits in the shop awaiting final fittings. The tailor asked Barry all the right questions and the only time they struggled in their communications was when Barry asked the pants to have a cuff. The tailor said, "You want turn up? Inside or outside?" After we worked through that we left with the promise of a final fitting in "after four days". So this Friday after church and lunch we will stop back in and hopefully have a perfect fit!
