kaybeeque 🍁💪💪🍁<p>My great-grandfather was a very successful tailor in <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Plymouth" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Plymouth</span></a>.

My great-grandfather found a niche market in those that bought suits rarely, likely for an &#39;event&#39; and they were likely rural.
