Shying away from the obvious in Xmas knitwear I have got you this

Val Doonican? It's certainly seasonal.

Thank you all for your kind suggestions. After much thought, I'm veering towards this fetching ensemble of latex tee shirt and jodhpurs.

Bib tights and a Granfondo jersey?

Don't forget to wear your best socks though, as they sound like the sort to "request" that you take your shoes off in the hall...

Well if it was me I'd buy a pair of smart black jeans and a good shirt.

The big thing though is to feel comfortable in whatever you chose to do.

I feel sure that my, errr, hostess will feel entirely comfortable with my choice. She shops at the same establishment, I'm told.

White Levis and Tena?

My Levi budget has been blown on three pristine pairs of One Wash 501 Red Tabs. I'm not going back for more reckless expenditure, even if they are "stain-free".

Do black jeans leave fewer stains than blue ones? I'm a newcomer to this world of stain Hell.

They're still jeans though. Slowmo needs something more formal.

I expect so, now is not the time you want to take off your shoes to reveal your big toe sticking out the end of your socks.

You can get cords from M&S for £19.99 and the quality is OK so they should last 10-15 years. Mine do.

That's actually quite clever. Based on recent Amazon searches I suspect...... the ensemble would be a Schoffel fleece gilet, a pair of shooting stockings and a pair of Meindl mountain boots. Oh, and dog crate. (To keep him off the sofa?)

It's your choice and it is Xmas..........

Mankini, it's the only choice.
