    Never mind Mr S, he's in one of those doorways I think or perhaps the colds got to him.

    I'd wear smartish, or as smart as you can. If the setting is in an office they will be wearing fairly formal clothes. But I do mean jeans and a smart shirt/blouse, I'm not a huge fan or formality myself but if it makes you feel on a par then dress to impress!
    A decent plain jumper for a top and a blazer style jacket and jeans is smart.

    Thanks for that. I was thinking jeans, smart suede blazer and smart boots.
    My daughter (ADHD) is coming with me, so she will lower the tone whatever i guess LOL
