Dress code optional.
I travelled for a bit down under a way back and spent some time picking various fruit in New Zealand, grapes, apples- all that '5 a day' stuff. You'd get covered in juice and god knows what, so you'd always wear shit clothes- hence the countless trips to charity shops to see what other people had deemed unwearable.

Having spent a good ten minutes searching the racks of T-Shirts (because if you are going to wear a crappy T Shirt, it may as well have an amusing slogan or a cartoon of a man having sex with a pig on it), I noticed a man opposite me rifling though a section devoted to vests. He already had some somewhat faded black jeans slung over his arm and had selected a charcoal vest.

We had made eye contact so I gave him the 'alright?' nod and he replied 'I hate shopping- I've got a funeral this weekend.'

I'm sure it was a classy affair that had coverage in the Times.
