Another grand store in trouble. NJS will not be happy. Smith umbrellas probably gets photographed more often though.

Re: Swaine Adeney and Brigg
Swaine54's first post - "To all interested parties I can confirm that Swaine Adeney Brigg has been restructured and refinanced and is now in a position to pursue expansion and growth. The business continues to trade in St James and with the best retail partners in the world and the manufacture of our beautiful products by our craftsmen and women in our uk factories. We are grateful for your continued support."
It would suggest that the owners (old or new) have bought the company after agreeing a deal with SAB's creditors. It's difficult for brands like SAB to survive in such troubled economic times. It's easy to continue using old luggage or briefcases rather than spend a fortune on new, top quality replacements. It does not help that airlines are making luggage allowances more restrictive.
Contrary to lies of FNB and Woofboxer, I (and most of the other "Buff Bastards") have been banned from posting on this forum. There are only a few posters left so don't waste your time on here. This forum is dead and nobody cares.
