WONK: the Chaos Reigns Players
Good news/bad news - Bad: there's only one other photo of her; Good: I'd already scanned it and posted it in the Lounge here http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?p=200340#post200340 The photo with me in it shows the houses quite well - it's in the Men Of The Lounge thread...- Salv

WONK: the Chaos Reigns Players
OK, not quite so bemused now. I don't mind the photo borrowing at all. I'll have to scan the other photos - they're in a book called Simulacra, a privately published portfolio of youth cult re-creations by British fashion photographer Nick Clements. I was in one of the photos, and they were...- Salv

Cheap Japanese selvedge jeans in the UK
I was looking at the distance between the lowest part of the crotch, which you can see between the legs, and the waist, and they didn't look like hipsters. The fly is quite short though, which makes them look low-waisted. I may be up in London tomorrow, so I'll make sure I find a pair and try...- Salv

Cheap Japanese selvedge jeans in the UK
Uniqlo - a Japanese based company with 11 branches in London and the southeast - have some Japanese made selvedge jeans on their website for a very reasonable £39.99, in either black or blue. I've only seen pictures and haven't held any in my hands, but they look as though they may have a...- Salv

War in Europe, 1939 !
I don't think the Gurkhas saw action until the Japanese invasion of Malaya and Singapore in December 1941. They fought in North Africa, but don't appear to have arrived there until some time in 1942, but I'll check my books when I get home as well. -
Apple iPhone
Now this is what I want - the iPod touch. An iPhone-like iPod without the phone and camera, but with 8GB or 16GB of storage and wifi web browsing. This is the video iPod that I've been waiting for.- Salv

On yer bike!
Looking good Paddy! If you want any help choosing a road bike feel free to ask. We should be able to sort you out. Thanks Speedster; they're a joy to ride too. Well spotted with the dummy brake lever - it's there partly for the looks, so the front wouldn't appear unbalanced, but I spend...- Salv

Movies And Their Profanity
This theory about archers at Agincourt actually refers not to the US middle finger salute, but to the British two-fingered salute, in which the index and middle fingers are raised in a V-sign, famously seen in the poster for the film Kes. However, Snopes reckons this is merely an urban legend.- Salv

The Spanish Civil War
Sierra, your English is fine and your meaning is perfectly clear, and I'm very grateful to you for your contributions to this thread. Your first-hand knowledge of life under Franco, and your families experiences during the war itself, are invaluable. -
Jeans
That's where I got mine, but I think I paid a little bit more than £10, but no more than £20. I like the sound of that shirt; any chance of some photos? The Lee outlet at Clark's Village is a great place and I always stop in if I'm down that way with my family. Have you been to either of...- Salv

The Spanish Civil War
Where, in that review of Payne's book, does it state that the Popular Front was controlled by the Comintern prior to the start of the Spanish Civil War? Where does it confirm your belief that the war started as an anti-Communist crusade to protect the Catholic church. In fact, where does it... -
The Spanish Civil War
You seem to be backing down from your claim that the Comintern held any influence over the Popular Front prior to the start of the war. We're getting somewhere. No, it was mentioned that the Communists held 14 seats in the Cortes, out of a total of 424 seats. I make that about 3.3%. But yes... -
"The Death of the Grown-up"
