I know a good tailor here in Warrington who can fit me with various sizes.
Suit trousers and jacket come seperately although they are the same make - good deal really
My difference is approximately 10 inches. It got really annoying before I found this tailor. My poor wife used to laugh hysterically at me with trousers that fit and jacket and waistcoat popping out.........

Ahem . On the subject of name-calling, I think it's a mental thing. It's not limited to race either. I don't mind being called Trekkie by my Trek friends, but if someone else called me that, I'd get upset. I know girls who call one another bitches, but if a man called them bitches, they'd get angry. The mental thing is that it's sort of "okay" to call a bad name if you're part of the group, but it's derogatory and mean-spirited if an outsider does it. It's something that happens, although I don't agree with it. If you don't want to be called those names by outsiders, it's best to not use them at all.
