I like to dress smartly, but I dislike wearing suits and ties. Although, I do have umpteen ties in my drawer, just in case. Its trousers I seem to have issues with, I always like to wear smart trousers, but somehow they always seem to vanish (not while wearing them).

I am trying to figure out what specifically "smartly" means. The US military uses that as in crisp. Like a smart hand salute.

I only have three suits, and three ties. I should get more ties, but unless my future job requires me to wear a suit all the time, I don't see the point.

I don't have a suit as I'm still growing. And too thin to get off the shelf stuff without looking like I'm wearing a duvet.

I don't have a suit. I left my last one behind when I moved back from Scotland 6 years ago, and I really don't want one :-)

My wardrobe has become sadly malnourished... aside from blazers and sport coats, I'm down to four suits and probably less than 30 ties.

1. Galvanise - Chemical Brothers
2. I Believe in a thing called love - The Darkness
3.You shook me all night long - Ac/Dc
4. Superstition - Stevie Wonder
5. Keychain - Rory Gallagher

We may not be proud of em all but you gotta post. :)

My MP3 Player won't work anymore ... seems i did something to it when I incorrectly pulled it out (of my computer!). Does random Windows Media Player music count? :lol:
