The ultimative Denim Trouser Thread?
I think the detergents used today are different from those of the older days. There has been some developments. For example enzymes are added in many to enable lower washing temps and shorter cycles. Also during the production of fabrics there has been some changes, for example dying processes...- CatsCan

Is it ok to negotiate and/or offer less than the listed price? What qualifies as a low ball offer?
This reminds me of a scene in Life Of Brian, if you remember that movie. In the end, he was offered the flask for free but then asked, what was wrong with it, that it cost nothing!- CatsCan

Will hopefully receive a Bronson N-1 in navy blue today
Looks like a very practical throw over and go out jacket on you - and yes, this is the way Paul Newman looks in his! I am thinking of getting another Bronson Deck Jacket in one size bigger, too, to be honest, exactly because of this hassle free throw over thing. I dropped Lee a mail. He will...- CatsCan

Will hopefully receive a Bronson N-1 in navy blue today
Kid, I have some fav jackets of which I over time got myself one in a bigger size for serious winter conditions when I need to have extra layers worn under them, and one in a smaller size when temps are moderate. These Deck Jackets - as you have pointed out - can be chosen for a specific look...- CatsCan

Dentist Woes!
I had bad teeth as a child and in my youth. The dentists earned a lot of money. A Dentist was considered a real doctor who only wanted my best. Later I recognized the freelancing craftsman in need to pay his Porsche and started to question every diagnosis. My luck was, that one of my closest...- CatsCan

Where is the Spring????
What a coincidence! I saw some (eight) cranes today, sorry for the bad quality of my pics, small camera, no tele, had to zoom in until max. Beautiful and magestic birds! I love them and all the old tales, mythology and symbolism attached to them... Cranes grus grus spec. feed on corn remains...- CatsCan

Fake Shops
Yeah, I don't want to know how big the economical damage really is. And I guess it is extremely profitable for at least some. But we can help people here on the forum to be more aware. Many are. But some may not be aware of this. And we can collect our cases and experiences with how to proceed...- CatsCan

Fake Shops
Happy End! A few days ago the parcel from China with the ordered "Deck Jacket" eventually came ;) I was looking at the package and was exited! It is one of those magic Deck Jackets! You know... those that are extremely small in a pack but when you pack it out it is a normal size wearable Deck...- CatsCan

Your First Car....
I don't know... I know it is the way to go. But... the good old T2! The beauty, the smell, the hard work to stir with the gearstick. Nature was so beautifully polluted and lungs so deliciously poisoned by the original. Nature will be so unesthetically preserved with the "new" one. And as things...- CatsCan

Your First Car....
We used to have a joke. A chap said to the other: "It's difficult to drive in England, they drive left." The other chap:"Yes, absolutely horrible. I have tried that on the road from Leer to Aurich." (Leer and Aurich are small East Frisian Towns in Germany).- CatsCan
