Tough Questions
For nineteen of twenty-one days I searched
souvenir/tourist precincts for some useful clothing
to take home.
I entered this shop without much hope,
as things always became tough when
the sales assistant asked my size.
Anywhere form 2XL up was my usual reply.
3XL was always too small (and largest in stock),
even though I was wearing a loose 2XL shirt.
So it was with great pleasure that I found
a wind-cheater/sweater which fitted well
at I Love Paris on the Champs-Elysées.
