Upper sartoria

Attention shirt makers!

There is a gap in the market which you are conspicuously failing to fill: shirts with darker backs than fronts. Especially useful in the summer for the city dweller when it is too hot to wear a jacket to work so everything gets bundled into a rucksack instead. These are the days when the public transport system heaters are set to full power and the windows jammed shut. The sun will also shine a little.

In short, it will be hot, even when the sun ain’t shining.

Normal shirts can’t cope. The back, whether you are wearing a jacket or no, carrying a rucksack or no, the back will get moist, perhaps even slick¹. Now it would be so simple to hide this annoying and uncomfortable fact if shirts were made available on which the back panel was of a darker hue than the front. The hideous reality of modern urban life would be hidden from unwary eyes.

While I’m at it, shirts with self-fragrancing arm pits. Think about it.

¹I do apologise for using such language this time of day, particularly the former of the two words, but sometimes it just has to be said. And since I’ve said it once, I shall use the forbidden word again: moist. (May as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb).

The Salmon of Doubt

Due to an oversight on my part (ie not paying attention), my tuna and sweetcorn sandwich appears to be poached salmon and watercress instead.

This doesn't go as well with cheesy Wotsits as you may have thought.

That is all.
