    Tailors

    Evening all,

    Does anyone know if there is a tailors in Deepcut who hire out RLC number 1 dress? My mate is getting married and has decided to make all his friends suffer by wearing it. I've seen a website called squaddiekit who do it but would rather go through a proper corps tailor if possible so I know I'm getting the right stuff!

    Thanks in advance

    Don't forget to go "one up"
    ARRSE - Not as funny as it used to be since 2003.

    Any state which has a permanent staff of officials, they begin as our servants and end up imagining themselves our masters.

    No! This is an old rule whereby private soldiers were not allowed to get married, they were allowed to wear the next rank up for the day.

    I have seen many people do this because of 'hear say.'

    Bulford Tailors. They can have it ready in a week or so, depending on how fat you are

    Spk to RQ Deepcut for No1s - 94214 5642

    Then the CORPS tailor "Lee" will tailor them but youll have to pay - 01252 838140

    If they cannot help thye get these phone calls all the time so they can direct you to a number of sources.

    Remember it's YOUR wedding, you can wear whatever rank or medals you prefer... ;)
    A man may fight for many things. His country, his friends, his principles, the glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child. But personally, I'd mud-wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash, an amusing clock and a sack full of French porn.

    Cheers guys! Actually it's not MY wedding but I'll tell the groom to get himself a "national defence" medal and a "fighting outside savoys in paderborn" medal so he's got more bling than the rest of us
