In a word, Peter Granger is ‘chuffed.’
For a number of years now, the 31-year-old hasn’t been trusted to select and purchase his own clothes because according to his partner, he’s got the ‘taste of a tongueless drunk.’
But this morning, Granger confidently strode into the South Betoota Rivers Megastore and chose a few pairs of jeans and a nice shirt for himself.
“When people talk about trust, this is what they’re talking about,” he said.
“Kitty, the love of my life, said to stay away from the pre-damaged and stonewash jeans. Printed button-up shirts are also off limits. So in the end, I got a swish pair of tube jeans with a deep, blue denim plus a polo shirt that just a little bit too small,”
“All in all, I think I did a good job. Hope I did, anyway. The whole ensemble cost me $4.56 so I don’t think she can return anything in good conscience.”
Speaking candidly to The Advocate, Kitty Pitchman said Peter did a fine job choosing his own clothes today and he might get a special reward tonight for his effort.
“I’m going to cook him his favourite dinner, which is also the state dish of Queensland,” she said.
“A bowl of potato gems lathered in smokey BBQ with a side of lime-flavoured Aeroplane Jelly.”
More to come.
