Just thought i'd post this. I was sent this by David the other day who has sent it as a mail shot to his clients. Its something that i believe we
would all be interested in due to its content and i believe its been written and Photographed by him. Its been published by a few bloggers and magazines also. Here is the article from his website. Should start a good conversation.

Yes. Although I think the word refugee a tad unfair, more someone with common sense who smelled the rot long before the rot took hold.....

How refreshing to see a SR tailor that commutes to work by skateboard!

I was fortunate to have a suit made by Mr David Ward for my Wedding Day.
I found the whole process of purchasing, what is now a very important part of my wardrobe a very pleasant experience. From the initial consultation and discussion of my requirements to choosing the cloth and the fittings was all conducted very professionally by Mr Ward. I ended up with a three peice, double button SB with notch collar & Double vents made in Navy Hopsack, beautiful sihouette and great peice of work.
Everytime I put the suit on I realise how fantastic a good suit can make you feel, this was my first purchase of a Bespoke suit and it certainly wont be the last. Very highly recommended indeed!

The picture of John Steed on David's website it the exact replica of that which hangs in Edwin de Boise's shop in Carlisle.
