Guernsey dress
I was very particular about my clothes. At work I wore a guernsey, or a singlet if it was too hot in the greenhouses; but when I sat on the gallery wall of a Sunday evening watching the girls pass, I was wearing my best. It was a suit made of good blue serge with a jacket braided at the edge and the trousers narrow at the top and wide at the bottom; and I wore a white shirt with it and a starched white collar and a shiny silk tie.
