    Opera night - tux required

    I'm going to the opera in a few weeks and as there's also a birthday involved it's been decided that the men are going in tuxedos

    i don't own a tux' and have been told buying one rather than renting is better as it can be adjusted to fit properly.. makes sense

    so, does anyone know of a good place to buy a tux in/around Manchester?

        Get a good tux. The cheap ones look terrible.

        PS. If you don't own a tux, how do you dress when going to expensive black tie dinners in the City at top hotels and restaurants?

        Oh, I see......

          Chef, remember that the drinks in the break cost and awful amount of money, last time I went (London Opera house) a glass of champagne cost £12 – I think pink champagne was double Lucky my date thought I was worth it

              With enough champagne it certainly gets a bit blurry at least...
              B00med!

                What did your Imam think?

                  How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

                    Maybe he was the one buying the champagne?
