Nevertheless, if I were in civvies, you'd have permitted the waiter to cut my steak.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw another man, younger in appearance and looking like an Army officer in civvies, approach him.

Granted as 'e can't walk about naked; granted as 'e 'asn't got a suit o' civvies of 'is own—wot is 'e to do?

O' course there was crowds o' civvies doin' the same, but 'e says there was a lot what didn't seem to care a damn.
