Re: The Black Suit

Ain't life grand? Not only was Mosley demonstrably wrong about everything, but his sartorial symbol is now a symbol only of mafiosi-style criminality in crap films and tv dramas and is otherwise worn mainly by middle-aged men trying to show how cool they are at an evening do.

Sometimes life's little ironies are capable of bringing great pleasure.

Re: The Black Suit

Aye. And after donning our tweed, we tend to sit down and have a nice cuppa' and by the time we've finished the cakes and tea, all thoughts of revolutionary endeavor has gently departed. I defy you to agitate a man with a full belly of Yorkshire tea and hot cross buns.

Of course, when backed into the corner, standing defiant against fascist dictators, we do tend to show our great stoic skills of improvisation and sheer guts; then we serve it up to them good and proper, just like the tea me old grandmother use to make: piping hot and unbeatably strong!

Black has only ever worked for Johnny Cash.

Re: The Black Suit

The black shirt is popular with football pundits these days. Lineker, Shearer & Hanson usually wear one with no tie; and the Indian bloke on The Football League show does likewise.

Sky TV football pundits may dress differently but they have assistants to tuck the microphone in for them.
