“I was pleasantly surprised in this store. A lot more inventory than I was expecting, and everything was actually stocked, not just empty shelves. My credit card fell out of my pocket outside, when I noticed it, I found the store’s number and called.

I’ll go back when I get my suits at The Knights Chamber right across the road.”
