The Master Tailor

Charles Maimone emigrated as a young man from Sicily after WW2. Now in his 80s he continues to work every day in his shop making fine garments for the rich and famous of Melbourne. Would he retire, I asked. "No", he said, "my wife prefers that I am not at home doing nothing." Don't you just love that old fashioned Singer sewing machine!
