Mr B has a number of Hawian shirts. And
he wears them. I have learnt to come to terms with it - he is an aussie
after all. I say go ahead and get one. It'll teach your wife and kids a
valuable lesson in tolerance

My brother-in-law was best man at our wedding, and kept threatening his
wife that he was going to wear a very loud Hawaiin shirt....it was quite
fun seeing how cross she was getting, her exact words are censored, but
added up to "don't think about it you idiot or I'll divorce you!":D

LOL your
brother in laws wife (sorry not sure if she is your sister or sister in
law) sound like me.
My Aussie hubby has a wardrobe that needs burning.
Gradually over the past few years I have managed to "loose" a few items,
accidently left a pair of his trainers on the roof of the car so they
got lost, left his sandels in the garden rain for over a month,
unfortunately DR Martin Sandels really are very strong and they
survived. He had some trousers made out of Hemp and they were like
something MC hammer used to wear, he is 6'4" and really did look awfull
so I accidently turned them into rags to polish the car with (hemp is
very good for that by the way)

Don't get me wrong have no problem with
people dressing to there own tastes and I happen to think that hawaiin
shirts, hemp trousers and DR Martin sandels really look good on some
poeple but not on everyone, it all down to the body shape. The dr Martin
sandes are really chunky and have a thick sole so stuck on a pair of
size 12 feet on the end of a pair of skinny legs attached to a vary tall
man not only makes his feet look massively oversized for his body it
also make him 2 foot taller he is any way which makes him 14" taller
than me. Never agod thing to mbe made to feel like the shortest chick in
the world

My husband has got some nice hawaiian shirts that he got in the
states when were on holiday from Gap and Tommy and they were cheap cos
we got them from the outlet centre.

He loves them:eek: :cool: :D

Sounds like my
boyf - I'm currently convincing him that A/he needs to throw away some
of his clothes for space/update his wardrobe and B/ WE should go
shopping to get him some new stuff :) Its not that I don't like brown
checked shirts, its just that they look better on a farmer in the 80's
(no offence to anyone who has a shirt like this :eek: :))

She keeps coming back with stuff, last week it was
shorts, covered in flowers.

" They're covered in @@@@@@@ flowers ! " i
exclaimed.not very chuffed at all.
