I thought that the following would be of some amusement to a couple of our NYC members who have jumped into Poole.

I encountered Patrick of Peter Elliot Blue wearing a striking three piece navy suit. On closer examination I saw that the cloth was a very heavy serge, they type that you would never find in RTW.

I asked Patrick about the suit. It was his grandfather's, and it was made over 40 years ago by Henry Poole. Patrick had his NYC tailor re-cut the suit. The tailor told Patrick it was the best made suit that he has seen.

Incidentally, the suit is in excellent condition.

Cheers.
