On a day where more grown up attention was on my disability benefits - and I can see some challenges to elements of those announced changes today - thoughts are more around other things.
Suits did feature a bit in eatly childhood but rarely were they short trouser suits usually for occassions such weddings, formal party invitations and the like where what I'd wear in church was more "smart casual" and usually casual for Sunday School.
In a lot of ways I really missed that as not only was there something really disagreeable with them having "longs" but being unlined too the materials were either sweaty or very itchy just where you don't want itches and that itchiness sometimes carried over the the waistcoats rubbing against your polyester shirt.
Back then negotation over clothing was unheard off so the last suit I had was long even by 1979/80 I was getting somewhere in the shorts rebellion at least at home.
Lined short trousers would of been far more comfortable.
