Soz Andy, I was just saving @Demonstonethe time and effort 🙃

An honest autocorrect mistake

Is this one of those places that roll their eyes when you say you have a 40” waist?

”I’ll check out the back sir”

Great song. Really strange cultural appropriation by Brisbane to play this at their games... Battle song for the WVU mountaineers and true americana so  let them have it,  got nothing to do with kangaroo pt and woolloongabba

That right there is why my "book two seats on an aeroplane" gut needs a bespoke tailor.

I just assumed that all Demonlanders used a bespoke tailor - as I do!

What, you can’t buy 5XL red and blue kaftans off the rack? 
Surely your matching red and blue crocs aren’t custom made?

FMD - I thought they went into receivership or out of business years ago!

Very much alive and well! Warehouse is in Truganina, supplied their office furniture 😁

I hope you don't consider this patronising  WCW but we of The Manor born , as it were, do not buy off the rack, even if it is possible.

If we play that bloody song after goals I'll challenge the board

Bugger..

Was hoping for Wu-Tang brand personally. 

I heard they are going to sponsor the under 18’s - because Wu-Tang is for the children.

Chill, mon.  Maybe they'll play Toots and the Maytals version.

Who cares if this further fuels the stereotype? Double down on it I say. Time to load me up on some sweet, sweet knits.

It's obviously a favourite of Charlie Cameron's in case you have missed the song in celebration after a Charlie goal.

Is Henry Bucks still going? (I assume the MCC would have that tied up)

I buy around 81% of my clothes from CR so pretty happy with this. 

If your avatar is any indication of your wardrobe preferences it seems you are more a beard guy than clothes guy 😃

I know, and that's before they take the discount off.

[old dee 23,782]

Well I have to admit I don’t own  one item of CR. 
70% of my clothing I buy at DFO. Usually get brand names at a larger discounts than 20%.
For perhaps some strange unknown reason I have always thought of CR as woman’s clothing.

Don't even know if they have shops at DFO.

l will have to look on my next visit I might have missed some good clobber!

Must admit I thought the same... 

This one is owned by Woolworth's it seems

Woolworths of South Africa who also own David Jones.

Definitely not. A massively strong brand owned by a South African company now that also owns Witchery, Mimco and a few other brands. 
 

This is a great partnership for all the MCC high brow fans of Melbourne and also for those of us who enjoy 20% off… If you don’t own their towels you’re missing out 😂

Manchester - if that's the right word - is not my thing. I was vaguely conscious of new towels appearing in our house several months ago and that they were of particularly high quality. After reading your post, I noticed for the first time they are from Country Road. Naturally, I have now complimented my wife on her exquisite taste in towels and informed of the 20% discount on future such purchases. Thx for your post!
