The Lands End catalogue popped through the door yesterday. I was about to throw it into the re-cycling bin when the caption on the front caught my eye (as it's meant to do and, yes, I only have one eye which can discern letters!) so I had to open it and find out what the question was. Not that I expected it to be interesting.

But it got better (or is it just CJ and I?) when it said that one of the Lands End selling points - no-iron finishes - didn't apply here so they can be worn "with a blazer....or casual polo" Surely the implication here is that the no-iron finish is inferior.
