Dear Gents,
Apologies for any offence/inconvenience caused.

Does anyone know what this "Ivor" guy works for living? He seems to be quite knowlegable about all the makers in the land, so I suppose he is in the menswears trade, am I right?
Are my grammer and spilling right, "Ivor"? Desperate for your reply.

Thanks for the shout-out. Just let me add that though I do have some experience with bespoke, it's not nearly to the degree that others have. I seem to fit in RTW and MTM just fine, and I happen to not have too many quibbles with wearing what I wear, off-the-peg. That said, I agree with the thrust of your message. I have no reason to kiss FNB's ass -- but I too appreciate this forum -- because though I disagree with maybe 30 or 40% of what he says (or implies), he doesn't give a shit and let's most threads stand. You won't find that elsewhere. None of us should take any of this stuff seriously anyway. As Grayson said elsewhere, in a different context, it's just clothes.
Exactly, what does this "ivor" guy know about clothes anyway? I bet he's never even ordered a suit from say w.w chan. He's all theoretical and a geek.
One more thing, I really look forward to bumping into him on Manton's book party.
