    'Das Boot' Jacket

    This is the "plate armour" (cowhide) prototype. As you can see the buttons are misaligned but the jacket seems sound enough. It's missing the button holes on the lapels but I think they've added those now. The lapels have too much of a V between them than the lower one should start below the...

    'Das Boot' Jacket

    Bad Wolf is an amateur who went round all the leather makers in the UK getting samples made from each without any knowledge of what he wanted. When one came in looking like the one he liked he doubled the price and started selling it himself. Personally I'd save the money, choose the...

    Tea Suggestions

    A couple of months ago I had some collegues over from abroad who were desperate to go for afternoon tea at Harrods. So I took them to the 4th floor tea room. It was a fabulous spread. You chose your own tea and it came in an enormous silver pot (about 4 cups), and they gave you the tiered...

    Connery's "Allan Quatermain" Vest

    Going on the other waistcoats he has in stock (he has one, made for Mission Impossible 3 and never used, he's been trying to get me to buy :)), you are probably looking at £90-125, approx $200. e.g: http://www.ekmpowershop4.com/ekmps/shops/westedcom/index.asp?function=DISPLAYCAT&catid=28

    What's going on in No. England and So. Scotland?

    LOL you got me on that one. But you know what I mean. Unfortunately it's the 2 sides of the coin, white collar crime V blue collar. The while collar crime can vandalise people lives the blue just their trinkets. Both are criminals the latter is a reaction to the percieved crimes of former in...

    What's going on in No. England and So. Scotland?

    I think a great deal of this comes down to the fact that these sort of symbols of wealth are and will always be outside the reach of the common, decent, hardworking individual. Far too often we see the fat cats, the blaggers, and basically the completely undeserving gaining wealth hand over fist...

    Can I taste that again?

    Luke warm milk really gives me the heebie jeebies, stems from school. In the UK we used to be given these little 1/3rd pints of milk at morning break (about 11.15 if i remember rightly). Unfortunately it was delivered to the school in the early morning and they never refrigerated it. I'm sure...

    Can I taste that again?

    Lot's of people have an aversion to tomatoes. Especially raw and in sandwiches. In the past tomatoes were considered poisonous as the plant is related to deadly nightshade. Cheese, meat and tomatoes are contain some of the highest concentrations of natural glutamate, the chemical that MSG...

    PC vs Mac - Apple looks very attractive right now!!

    Ren, this would: expose, rather than hitting f keys, you set each corner of you screen to do one of the functions. So for instance, swipe to the bottom left of your screen and reveal all your open windows, bottom right to reveal your desktop, etc. You wouldn't believe how much more productive...

    You Scream for Ice Cream?

    There's a famous ice cream maker in Vancouver that has about 200 different flavours to try and buy at any particular time. He's always experimenting, Wasabi and Kimchi were challenging, Sesame was amazing. http://www.lacasagelato.com/

    Chocolate: A very important poll!

    I like dark dark chocolate, Green and blacks 85% is amazing. I also like Cadbury's fruit and nut occasionally but find Galaxy too sweet. Not keen on white, all cocoa butter and no solids. Pure fat really! Hershey's is odd tasting I think. I brought some to bring back as gifts for my co...

    The Vintage Fur Thread

    Yes, they have to kill the beavers for their fur to make hats. The esteemed headgear that this forum is named after is best when made from beaver fur. And they have big teeth, shaving is not an option. [huh]

    My attitude is NOT free!

    Over here (in the UK) barmen/women get paid pretty close to minimum wage and don't get tipped and don't expect to be. There is the occasional have one for yourself which may be taken as a drink or sometimes as cash. In restaurants 10% is usual, sometimes up to 18 is "suggested". I think 10%...

    Do we like sodie pop? What do you like and what do you call it?

    I used to love R. Whites Lemonade. It had a creamy perfumed taste. But like all lemonades now it seems to have become a pale imitation of itself. It also had a great advertising campaign "I'm a secret lemonade drinker!".
