Perhaps more 10th anniversary pairs were made than 15th anniversary? There may have been a surplus of 10th anniversary pairs so a decision was made to produce less of the 15th.

Unfortunately the inseam on that 30s pair is short - 71cm, hence the relatively low price.

It’s a mini relay… with just 2 legs.

What a great story Neal, it’s really impressive. We should do a job swap for a day. How’s your PowerPoint?!

6. Do not ask OO Soul to do this as he takes ages and charges a small fortune 😆

We use perplexity.ai at work. I don’t ask it to create the PowerPoint decks, just the content, which I then rewrite and insert into whatever templates we feel are best suited! 😆

Look on the positive side here. You’d have shredded it to pieces ages ago anyway so it’d just be a distant memory by now!

I can’t admit to understand it all Neal but it looks incredible and far more rewarding than creating meaningless spreadsheets and PowerPoint presentations as, ahem, some of us around here probably do for a living.

I’m currently out walking the dog (9pm at night) and someone just cycled past on a penny farthing!😮 I wonder if it was one of OO’s bike forum lunatics heading home from last night’s boozathon?

^ That’s the obvious thought that springs to mind. It’s similar to the numerical reference codes that LVC and some of the Japanese manufactured Edwin jeans use on their inner tags.

A bit tyred? I saw the stage show of Fawlty Towers last night as Mrs F got half price tickets from one of the actors (half price = £45 each). 2 regular size glasses of wine cost £25! Theatre is definitely not a cheap night out. However, if you liked the TV series, you’d definitely like this, some real laugh out loud moments. Recommended (if you can get discounted tickets).

They’re complete cyclepaths!

I think chainstitching is the common theme.

^ The link is showing a denim jacket for me.

Nice one Doc, I bought a navy Schott CWU in the late 90s and donated it to charity when I last moved home in 2008 as I hadn’t worn it in a while. It was definitely warmer than the US made Alpha MA-1s I had in the late 80s/early 90s. Wish I’d kept it…

Better buy them quickly @Alec Leamas, now your cover is blown!

+10 I’ll add buying via a proxy or using Google translate to write an email in Japanese to a shop

Warp and Weft thread here. Does anyone know of a working link to stream the film (not just the trailers)?

Did you mean @StuartM?

Attended a Self Edge/Iron Heart/Rivet & Hide/etc meet up?

I had the original Internationalist in 1984, before they put that plastic thing around the bottom of the heel cup. I also had some Air Pegasus mk II in around 1988 in silver/grey with a teal swoosh iirc.

Those white jackets have old school ice cream man vibes to me. “I’ll have a 99 please Mr Whippy”!
