This is true - but would you buy a computer from someone in bottle green trousers?
My tie from the Lincs show is causing much hilarity in the office, and (spookily) is made by a company called "Family tie".

Now that shows the strength of our family ties - I commend you to Abi again (for wearing a joke tie purchased by your mother to the office) Very spooky - but not up to Thos Cook

If fixed the logic in the first paragraph but this whole article needs sorting out...I seem to have had a bit of writers block.
Perhaps this is due to the dressing-down Fridays that are going on all over the place and reducing the use of the suit and tie?

I think "Yesterday" is posted > 24 and < 48 hours ago.
If so it should flip to 2 days ago at about 5pm GMT.
...but the PTB probably have a better explanation...
