Clothes shopping for the old man.

Pure panic today for my dad.

He was told by his business parter that he needs new clothes.

His last pair of pants ruptured the other day (see picture) and something needed to be done.

My dad has never been a big fan of buying clothes so I decided to take him to the same store I bought my suit to ease the stress of this endeavour.

The guy there is nice, they have good (XXXL) stuff and serve coffee.

He was even allowed to smoke his electric cigarette from time to time.

I wanted to take him to this store because they adjust the length of the pants for free and on the spot.

Taking away the pain of trying a zillion pants before finding that perfect fit.

In an hour we were done with 2 new pants and 3 new shirts.

I asked the owner to burn the old stuff.

I do so wonder what his business parter thinks of my dad today!

I'll know later tonight.

I went shoe shopping today but couldn't find what suited me. Such a bore.
I love online shopping but it scares me to buy clothes there.

I do buy online but in the Netherlands it's free to send back.

burn the old stuff - cheeky monkey! Lol

Indeed!

Great friend i also like shopping .

"I asked the owner to burn the old stuff."

It would have been perfect to burn it in the Green egg!

I read your post with tenderness, my grandfather do the same when he went shopping, he do not like it al all eh eh

That's a beautiful gesture, @exyle!! I applaud your behavior with your dad. The poor guy doesn't like to go shopping a lot and the fact that you accompanied him makes the experience more passable. He must have looked as handsome as you. Hugs

Yea I thought it was the same place you brought your suit and from the picture it first looked like you were awaiting on your drinks, wow really no extra charge for the adjustments! Surely it must be a expensive place in general to shop at @exyle

That's cool and what kind of electronic cigarette your father uses? Thanks

Very good moves and thank you for doing so...may you be rewarded by your own Kid too. As for His Partner, trust me, he will respect him the more and appreciate you too... thanks once again!

You did the right thing by going to the store and get the perfect fit :)

Your dad has a great son always love your dad we never know when they will leave us in this miserable and terrible world

I can understand your dad's reluctance to go shopping for clothes. It is not my favourite past time either. But I hope I don't wait as long...That was really nice of you to help your dad out like that. I hope his shopping experience was less painful this time around! Funny thing...I did a similar thing with my dad years ago and also told the store owner to burn the clothes! (Great minds think alike?)
