DEPT. OF DUBIOUS ADVICE: YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

August 26, 2019 by David Coggins in Etc.

Did Instagram messages even exist three years ago? I’m not sure, but now I receive daily questions on the ‘gram from friends and friendly strangers alike. These questions are often about where to eat in Florence, where to buy a suit, where to fish and other urgent issues of the day. Well let’s take those questions into the clear light of day and I’ll try to answer a handful next week. They can be about tailoring, travel, fly fishing or whatever else. I’ll do this every week or two, so I might still get to your question if it isn't addressed right away. Ask in the Comments below, if you’re too shy then send an Instagram message, but I think it’s helpful for other people to see what’s been asked. Also, please be specific: “Where should I eat in Paris?” is too vague. Are you celebrating? Are you on a budget? Do you love natural wine or hate it?

You can also make suggestions of stories you’d like to see on The Contender. Hope this is helpful. So ask away, kids!
