Rumour has it that I, Katie, Ghost of Bashers past, will be on the hi-speed down to Shanghai this weekend and, if I get some orders, i’ll bring a load of these exclusive Bogan’s Heroes Hoodies with me. Top quality design, so the guy down the alley behind Jimmy’s told me. What better way to make sure you’re up with the latest rural fashion trends on your upcoming trip to th ‘Jing?

Oh, Yeah, 300rmb.

You need to deal directly with the official Bashers tailor Xiao Yu. 

She still has a handful of embroidered pockets and a limited amount of the blue material left – so get in while it lasts.

The cost at this stage is still 650RMB

Be sure to give her your Bashers Cap number in Roman Numerals so it can be embroidered on the pocket.

The following steps need to be taken by individuals who would like to get one of these;

STEP 1: Get felt up.

The following have already taken this step;

Anyone wanting to join this list for the first production run has two options;

a) Get to Xiao Yu the Basher’s Tailor at Chang Hong Emporium, 940 Tian Shan Lu (near to Zun Yi Lu intersection THIS WEEK and mention you are with “BanQiu” and she will know what to do. Any communication issues while there call John 13661661086. Don’t forget to write your name and (IMPORTANT) your basher number in ROMAN NUMERALS on her sheet so she knows which number to engrave on your blazer. Please note that there is more than one establishment at 940 Tian Shan Lu. You’re looking for the large fabric shop, you’ll find Xiao Yu at her desk in the back corner.

b) if you’re too lazy to do that – write your name in the comments below and nominate a like-figured basher from the list above and she’ll use that persons measurements for you.

STEP 2: Cough Up:

These are not free but looks like the reasonable cost of 700RMB is going to be the price. We’ll need a deposit of 350RMB THIS WEEK so start counting out that jar of jiao. For those on the list above we need a commitment that you are still wanting to go ahead with this.

Our new Treasurer Stats Austen will be collecting the loot. Check back on the blog for information about the many social functions this week where you can meet him. 

Here, Here & Here

STEP 3: Suck It In

This will be soon and MINOR adjustments for any expansion which has occurred in the week preceding can be made.

@ Bamboo 6pm Saturday 6 September or 6pm Monday 8 September. Otherwise go see Xiao Yu at her shop yourself this week.

STEP 4: Flaunt It

Assuming you’re all paid up and no major issues are encountered by about September 13 you’ll have a great new robe to wear around the house. The first big formal outing for the Blazers will be at the SICS Dinner. We will look hot!

Thanks Johnny for getting this happening!
