One of our daughters is getting married on saturday one of our grandsons who lives with us we ordered him a 5 piece suit. because hes on the chubby side we had to pay for alterations too
suit was supposed to arrive in 10 days it came today took 4 weeks
shirt sleeves are 6" short waitcoat had no flippin buttons on it jacket they say they forgot to alter and although it does up its too snug a fit..
the tie has cardboard stitched inside so it cant be done up.
sent them the crappiest email i think theyve ever had threatened to give them the worst feedback on this planet if they didnt refund my money which they did the the cheeky beggars asked me to return the suit
i told them u want it you send me a pre paid bag or come get it yourself
now ive only got a few days to find another piggin suit

That is absolutely disgusting. Wish I had some advice, but suspect you will be trawling the shops trying to find something to fit

I have tried to reply to this several times.

Have to admit I would grab that deal with both hands if I needed new saucepans.

I have no experience with Circulon pans but have not heard anything bad about them. The only thing I would say is to think long and hard before ordering anodised pans, last time I looked at them you needed special cleaner and all sorts for them.

I'm still really struggling to post too :cool: Very irritating. Keep forgetting to copy text in case I lose it all.

Thanks for your reply. That's my Elite permission to get them ;) Ought to run it past Mr L too I suppose....
I'd already decided on stainless steel pans. Anodised have to be hand washed and I CBA with that Dishwasher safe comes right behind 'can be heated' in my priority list

More RTC in my ex netto - this may be good for an 11+/ CC/ HD.

Whitworths juicy mixed fruit RTC £1, it may compare v M. Only 10 packets on the shelf so I was unable to test.

Del Monte tinned pineapple and other tins also RTC.

As DH and I were walking round, we get to the wine aisle and he blinkin gets his phone out and scans the RTC £4 JC sparkling. He's been waiting for 12 of either the PN or the rose to be on the shelf, and today there were. He says oh it's still on offer in S, so I said yes but it means a large APG and I'm not spending it. Well, he shoved loads of beer in his trolley to cushion the blow so we'll know if it worked in a bit :eek:

Dippydoo, have you tried something as basic as M&S or BHS for a suit, somewhere where you can get different size component parts? And if you ask around your mates there is bound to be someone that can make any alterations for you.

The first thing I did was ♫ Good Morning ♫

She was still frosty but I then ignored her & let her come to me

No idea what it was about but by the end of the day we were walking on bubble wrap (literally- try it ) & :rotfl::rotfl:

That's very poor service!! To say the least:(

Have you got a Greenwoods nearby?
We hired all the men's suits for my wedding from them. They were fab fitted correctly and even allowed collection from other stores for relatives.
If I were you I'd pop along to your nearest one explain your situation, I'm sure they would be able to find the correctly fitted items you need from all the stores they have.
Hope you find something.
