Back on 1 February 2007, I penned the following words:-
There's nothing wrong with wearing twee clothes or listening to what is disparagingly referred to as twee music.
But you never see any fat folk described as twee do you? Do they only make twee clothes in the smallest possible sizes? I only ask out of curiosity, but let me know if you have the answer.
Here's three songs that some might define as 'twee'. I prefer to use the word 'great':-
mp3 : Tallulah Gosh - Beatnik Boy
mp3 : The Colourfield - Thinking Of You
mp3 : Architecture In Helsinki - Scissor Paper Rock
The reason I'm going back to an old post is that it's just 48 hours since I got back from holiday and I'm still jetlagged. There's also the fact that the suitcases had such a great time that they stayed on for a couple more days and have not long come home, so the process of washing and drying worn clothes (and indeed unworn clothes that have lain beside said worn and damp clothes for days now) is only just beginning. Oh and it's freezing cold here with snow and ice and a dramatic drop in temperature so my system is in shock.
All in all, I'm just too tired to do anything other than revisit an old post. Please indulge me.
Oh and nobody has satisfactorily answered the question from nearly 5 years back. Do they only make twee clothes in the smallest possible sizes?

Glad you're back, mate, and I do hope you enjoyed your trip a great deal!

Revisting an old post! Well really There's only one acronym I can wheel out. TBCTD! ;)
He's back! Thanks be to cod.
I recommend that you sleep now and wake up in, say, early April.
Tweed is twee and may not come above Medium size. (Although I've never worn nor seen it).
You can get 'extra slim fit' shirts in XXL which seems a contradiction in terms.
Twee is for students. Students are skinny. For everyone else there's rock/soul/funk/dubstep/The Fall (delete as applicable and welcome home x)
