"that's a nice shirt" "it's a ben sherman !"

I promised various people I'd count up exactly how many Ben Sherman shirts I own, and so it turns out that I bought my 20th one yesterday (did I hear someone say "sucker !" ?) - just under 3 years since my first one (I know, I started late). I reckon I'm not the only one who likes being able to go into a shop, try one on and know it'll fit just great. And there's only one, maybe two of them that I look at these days and wonder what the hell I was thinking buying those colours. But never mind that, it's a good average, eh ?

Heh; I keep meaning to buy some, but there are so many to choose from and at $90 each, I can't get them all.

Anybody know how much they cost in London, and where is a good place there to get them there?

i was served by a bartender wearing a smart little ben sherman shirt, and commented to him that it was a tasteful choice. he said, 'of course, it's a ben sherman'!
