The fact is, if JG thought something as trivial as banning Samonsites would get him further up the tree, he would do it!
Are these 'jolly smart' issue black Gladstone Bags actually waterproof, let alone mover-proof?
Now
this is what I call a Gladston
e, rather than a Gladston, Bag:
Mens Leather Gladstone Bag - Handmade Holdall from Italy
so why don't "Backside" et al, who also presumably want to get further up the tree, club together and buy him one?
A snip at a mere £342.99 - and somehow, with Darkside involved, "Dark Chocolate" sounds appropriate .....
