GREEN LONG LINE CROMBIE
Hi Huns...
This hell raiser...So innocent...So beautiful i hear you say...Well,...It gave me hell every step of the way...
You would of thought after making not 1 not 2 but 3...i should know better...EVERYTHING! that could go wrong with this coat...it did...the pockets where wonky...The center front was swinging in the wrong direction...And as for the lapels they were curling like pages from an old crumpled book...YEAH!
Every attempt to make it appear better i was rapidly digressing, nowhere FAST!..
I mean I'm gonna be honest...i did throw in the towel...
Well look at me tryna down play it...Who am i kidding...I wanted to burn the blooming coat...ALRIGHT!...But i quickly came to my senses...and not only that i spent over £60 quid on that... Beside that my ebenezer ways wouldn't allow me to...Well...I can laugh now...it certainly wasn't a laughing matter then....
OK!...Breeeeeeath!....Give it a break...I'll restart this coat another day...With a Fresh mind...fresh pair of eyes and a Fresh attitude...And so i did...
