weekender ... go out have a good time

NEW MONOCLE MAG OUT ... YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

so today is saturday the day of rest, the sabbath ... what do you mean thats sunday ... oh no no ... lets get a few things straight ... I am a married man, thus as other married men will testify ... i pledged my allegiance and love to one woman for which i am proud, but what i also did was to hire a manager for life, i am a managed man at the same time as a married one.

Aside from money a wife will also take great pleasure in managing your time ... now my wife hates shops and shopping on saturday ... too busy ... too many shoppers ... THANK GOD FOR E-BAY ... thus, in the words of many a cast member of eastenders ... on sunday we "go up west" ... yes the sabbath is switched to saturday and sunday is retail heaven, GOD is to found residing in shoes in Knightsbridge or Bond Street area thus we go to pray !!

Now the irony is that I really enjoy our jaunts 'up west' ... we look at a few galleries, drink good coffee, walk hand in hand ... its a buzz and 9 times out of 10 my good lady rewards herself with sometime nice ... happy days !!

well tomorrow I have a mission too, being a style CONSCIOUS (not fashion OBSESSED) man i have a few destinations that i want to visit ... and seeing as i watched North by North West today I am checking the smart end of the retail market ... suits, ties, rounded collar shirts and loafers ... Cary Grant = The Don ... my destinations:

1. RALPH LAUREN - cos thats where 'my' God lives ;)
2. BAMFORD AND SONS - keen to find out more ... Tyler Brulee is championing their quintessent english aristo style family run business in the current Bible MONOCLE MAGAZINE ... www.monoclemagazine.com
3. BROOKS BROS. - Thom Browne ... a total style icon (a a co-beliver in the wearing of short trousers) is Creative Director, its gotta be good ... cant believe i havent been yet ... weird for me !!

'HEY' TO ALL OF THE BERLIN CREW AS I KNOW THEY LOVE MONOCLE MAG AND I KNOW THEY WILL HAVE THEIR COPIES TOO ...
