I think thats that- but as always I am open to correctionThings fall apart; the centre cannot hold;

Thanks guys, A bit off the question now but how do they size the uniform i hope its not S,M,L etc?Comment

Same as suits usually. Chest and length for tunic, Waist for trousers.
Why do you need to know? Just wondering so we can give you the answer you need.

Any tips on buffing the linkers? :PI knew a simple soldier boy.....
Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
And no one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.Comment

No harm in asking Snip
they are a shite uniform- when wet they smell and get very heavy
when warm they scratch your hoop and scrape your thighs
Some people look great in them no matter what - whereas Louis COpeland could have dressed me
in mine and I would stil look shite-
they come in sizes not batches- by that I mean you may get a tunic built 3 years ago in ballina
and a pair of strides built this year in enniscorthy
the thread and dye would be very different hence the 2 tone look.
The UN whites were the really guichhi uniform- we wore them all the time in Cyprus
even Groundhog would look well in the UN whitesThings fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
