If you've got it

With the onset of Autumn almost upon us I've got to say I'm already looking forward to the time of year my dad still calls 'back-end'; when the temperature starts to drop noticeably and the number of daylight hours visibly dwindle. It's when I dive into the back of the wardrobe and reach for knitwear. And I generally find in early Autumn you can generally get away with a gansey in lieu of a coat. However, I've got knitwear envy: I've just seen Billy Idol on the front cover of Flaunt magazine and he's sporting a rather fetching red & black number. I want it. Come on, Billy - where d'ya get it? Do they do it in my size? (Insert joke here.)
