    Hair Coloring For Men /Your Advice and Experience

    When I was in my early thirties my hairdresser suggested she might give me (expensive), grey streaks - she said it would make me look more distinguished, mature and perhaps help me gain promotion - As a money savvy Yorkshireman I declined the offer. Now at 64 I've got them for free - nuff said!

    Break in at Aero

    One of mine too but I'm sure if there were any customers jackets in the hoard, Aero will let us know when they've had time to stock check. I'm pretty sure it'd be bad style to start bombarding them with emails asking whether ours were nicked.

    Where are all of the Russian/USSR leather jackets

    I thought the same as Eastwood stated above when I saw these pics. Ive got no knowledge about Russian jackets but the 'paper clip' zipper pull seemed to date it late 50's rather than mid 40's.

Both have external electric motors are excellent workhorses - straight stitch forward and reverse - all I need for lightweight leather work.

    Zipper repair of the thread behind the male insertion pin

    Brilliant well done you two! Sounds like you opened the pin up with a knife then squeezed it back on to the repaired tape - a fiddly job I'll bet?

    What's your favorite, most psychologial-impressive movie scene??

    I was most moved (at the age of 15 in 1968 by the final scene in Planet of the Apes 1 when Taylor (Charlotte Heston) and Nova (Linda Harrison) ride around the coast and see the broken Statue of Liberty rising from the sand.
