Good point about the Cals. If their labels stayed on we would be alot poorer!! Lol

Am waiting to light a cigar with you!!

Ps: thanks again for the heads up on the Langlitz. My first and it’s f***ing killer!

I may have to christen the Aero with a nice cigar, good idea.

Yeah B, glad you got the Langlitz. I was waiting for confirmation on the P2P when it disappeared. LOL. LL are no-joke, incredible stuff. And that price was insane for a perfect, like-new one. Enjoy the heck out of it.

Yes the RayBan Balorama have ben my sunglasses of choice for way over 30 years now , near 40 !

Bought my first pair in Spain. I now have a fair collection of them from over the ages. Some from the 60's !

Clint Eastwoods choice in Dirty Harry first coupla movies.

I have Black , Gold/black , Red/black , Purple/pink ( seriously !), Brown Tortoiseshell , Black Tortoiseshell ( 60's they are). Multiples of many of those colours. I have brand new old stock (NOS) cased and boxed of early 70's collected around the world. All Bausch & Lomb of Rochester New York.
Yes RayBan Balorama are my sunglasses of choice I also have another pair in tortoise shell

Some 7 barrel hinges , (the early ones), some 5 barrel. They are my daily wearer sunglasses , as you know by habit you do not leave the house in Australia without a pair of sunnies AND I find them the best for motorcycling bar none when straight sunnies are considered (not sunglass/goggle type which are bike/ski specific)

Just like my burgeoning jacket collection I ritually "cycle" them , wearing a different pair each day , then hand soap washed . dried and put back into the roster. Sound OCD to anyone here haha...YOU know what I man !

Chit I could start a thread on RayBan Balorama alone haha...

Hold tight and when the weather turns I'll give you the "when kid comes down for 87th glass of water after going to bed" look.

I drink about 10 glasses of water a day. Mostly to offset the morning coffee/heavy sunflower seed addiction and/or not collapse, but speaking of, they say excessive thirst is a potential sign of pre-diabetes. Don't mean to worry you but felt it my civic duty to tell you something you probably knew lol. I seriously binge on ice cream like leather jackets. It's a problem. Have resorted to buying smaller containers and eating two of those rather than a single tub in a sitting.

And i am honored. That 85’ Columbia i just got is outstanding but my Cals, they don’t seem worried. Lol
Be safe through Dorian @JMax et al.

Thanks B. Fingers crossed it keeps moving a bit north.

I agree, LL is great but I prefer the Cals.

I am having an internal dialogue, like the ones Dexter Morgan used to have, about which jackets to bring if I have to evacuate my home. A couple of Cals will be there. Few others too.
