english cut predictions for 2006

yyyyyyy765125.jpg

My predictions for English Cut in 2006 are:

1. Tom will spend a lot less time on Savile Row, more time in Cumbria. This will allow him more time to spend cutting suits, and more time looking after his American customers, at the expense of his London base.

2. Tom will cut back the number of suits he makes by at least a third.

3. English Cut will have a six-month waiting list for new customers by Year's End.

4. Expensive handmade shirts will become the main profit driver by Year's End.

5. English Cut will be approached by at least six potential large investors wanting a piece of the action. At least four will be turned down.

One or two of these predictions will be wrong. Or at the very least, twelve months will prove not to be enough time to implement them.

1. (Translation: will sit in the pub drinking pints with Hugh.)

Happy new year!
