Here's yet another silly story about how Britain's gone mad.
Home Office officials should wear softer coloured uniforms when deporting people, it says. Like what - teal? Lenny Bennett Powder Blue? Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you're being forced to leave the country because you've committed a crime or outstayed your welcome, it's not meant to be a pleasant have-a-nice-day kind of experience.
Workwear decisions can be difficult. I don't have to wear a suit or a tie or anything, and that's fine with me. I can wear jeans, trainers, whatever. But I do know when to look smart when the occasion dictates it.
However, some people don't understand this. While it's currently vogue to wear t-shirts all the year round, often in winter teamed with a very silly woolly hat, this won't do for a wedding. I've seen people at weddings in shorts - in winter.
Shorts are a problem. Personally, I'm not getting my legs out for anyone, so I never wear shorts, except to the beach. I wouldn't dream of wearing them for work. Some people put them on at the drop of a (Panama) hat. I don't think they're appropriate work wear, no matter how hot it is outside. And as for vests - don't get me started, not to mention those awful three-quarter-length trousers that make men's legs look really stumpy.
I prefer the full trouser for work. What about you?
