Mind you, eight years from best to slobbing is pretty thrifty.
profligate more like. I've just taken my old dinner jacket down to the charity shop - I got it for university in 1963. And I still occasionally wear the suits I had for work 22 years ago.
Mind you my daughter used to work at the beancounters down in the town when she had just finished college . She forgot her breakfast one day so I took a sandwich down to her office. Mid morning someone who also worked there was heard asking who the tramp was who came in earlier on. I got a talking to from junior SWMBO.
