Twice a year. A nice blue or maybe a stripe. Twice a year, that's how it works.' 'How long has this been going on?' "For years, sir. Years." "Well," | said, "I have a lot of catching up to do, and I'd better start right away. What about measuring me for one of these nice brown suits, possibly in worsted or something like that." "Not a worsted, sir. Not a worsted. Nobody ever wears worsted, absolutely nobody, nobody at all. If you're wearing a worsted you're not dressed, just not dressed." "Maybe | should just miss this damned wedding. Look here, how about cutting up one of these pieces of cloth over there and sewing if for me?' "Certainly, sir. That is a nice piece of cloth. | think you"ve an eye for cloth. I'll measure you right now." ' Like a flash, he shipped his inch tape from around his neck and wrapped it around my chest. ) 971", he shouted to his assistant. Wait a minute," | said. "I'm a 38, not a 97." "You're a 38 in linear measurement," he said, "But nobody uses inches and feet anymore, nobody, nobody at all. It's all metric now, everything's metric, everything." "That worries me,'"" | worried, '| know what fits me in inches but | don't trust this metric nonsense." "Don't worry about it. This suit will fit you like a glove." "That reminds me, what about a nice pair of gloves for the wedding?' ""Gloves!! Did you say gloves? Nobody wears gloves, not now, not anymore. Nobody wears PASSPORT Tom ny at all. Never, Tor "Okay, how long will it take to make my suit?' "Just wait a few minutes, sir, and your suit will be ready." "That is really quick for a tailor-made suit. Extraordinary." "No one has to walt for a tailor-made suit now, sir. We have them made in advance for You Vig, "That's amazing,' | marveled. "Here you-are, sir. Just slip the jacket on. Oh dear, | see you suffer from Limbo Diminu- tiveness.' 'What's that?" "It's a, problem we seem fo see more and more these days. | think it must be the damp weather. Whatever it is, everybody seems to have it, everybody.' "Does that mean you have to shorten the sleeves?" | asked. "Oh no! Because as soon as you had recovered then the sleeves would be too short for you. No one gets their sleeves shortened, no one, no one at all. You just have to stretch a bit." "You mean like this?' "That's right, sir. But just a little bit more. Now you've got it." "Do you think it's maybe a wee bit loose at the front here?" "Loose! Did you say loose? That's not loose, not if you walk right. Walk like this, see, like | do. Just push your stomach out a bit. That's better. Now you have a proper figure for a man." "But | can't keep holding it out like that. I've got to let go to breathe." "You don't breathe right, that's your prob- lem. Push your stomach in and out when you breathe, like | do. That's the way, sir. Let's try the trousers, now." "Ah! the tailor said, "| see the Limbo Diminutiveness has attacked your legs too. If you will just go up on your toes, sir. A bit more. Pretend you're a ballet dancer. That's it, looks very good sir. The suit fits you like a glove. Just stretch a bit and no one will ever know about your trouble sir, no one, no one at all."
