My Crusade to Swanley

Post by German »

Hello all,
now I was at Wested and Jerry has taken my measures.
We took the train from London Victoria station to Swanley. In Swanley we took a taxi. And it was the right choise. By foot it would have taken an hour I think. The Wested Lane is a typical english single track road. Very nice and country styled.
When we entered the shop Jerry welcomed my wife and me very friendly. We talked for a while and he took my measures. A bit later Peter entered the shop and we talked a little bit. Both are very fine hosts. We felt a warm and gentle atmosphere in the shop.

In 3 or 4 weeks Jerry said my crusade will be ready. It will be made of dark brown and very stiff leather with two pockets inside. Jerry said it would look better when the length is a bit longer or it will look like I`m wearing the jacket of my younger brother. By the way I am the youngest. :lol:
The stiff leather was my idea. I wanted a jacket for real use not for just wearing. How said Jerry (with a friendly smile on his face): Just for a real adventurer. :wink:
He said it will be very stiff wearin for the first time, but it will be a jacket for a lifetime.
So far my adventures in Swanley.
Boys, I tell ya:GO TO SWANLEY!!!!!

It will be a time you never forget when you are a real Indyfan

Best Regards to Peter and Jerry
