  1. Same as you folk - I exercise 5-6 times a week, have done forever and will continue until something bad stops me. It's my panacea. Now you mention lockdown @ATWM, while it had so many bad and sad effects, the daily family exercise regime at ours was great. Family workouts - hill sprints in the park, Muay Thai circuit training in the garden, weight training with some old kit I've had since my mid-teens when I started strength training to help football and athletics, we even used an old cinder 400m track and trained there - with even a timed 4x100m family relay to finish (and try beat the time at the next session). Memorable in many ways.
  2. @patricksjeans great story... thanks for sharing it
  3. My lad was playing football on the east cost near Filey, about 1.5 hours away from home, so we made a trip to the beach there. A 6-1 cup win and a goal for Junior MJF9 made for a good morning Filey is a really dilapidated old English seaside town... but, regardless, we do like to be beside the seaside We were Hank Marvin so the fish 'n' chips never lasted long Staged fit pics of the WoM 5150s with the other stuff I'm wearing regularly... not much to see yet... this looks like being a slow burn for me And nope... a quick sea-wash didn't tempt me... this time
  4. ^ I heard a rumour that prime Dorian Yates was planning on entering one of the first Sufu contests... the issue was his 33 inch waist, with each leg 30 inch round 😉

  8. Bizzarely... I joined 14 years ago on 23rd Feb. I'd been tuning in for years before that. Some cantankerous keyboard warrior behaviour iirc way back then. Much better now. I watched Weaving Shibusa in the Curzon in Soho. Lewis from the Superdenim / McCoys London shops put on a screening. Jam packed with London denim trendies. Would be interested in watching it again.
  9. Wore mine today... really nice shirt 😉
  10. Haha trust you to sprinkles that old flakey one in A white coat would be nice in Cone denim 😉
  11. @themott welcome... about £20 for a family of 4 nowadays depending where you go!!

    45rpm

    ahhhh makes the story and result even more sweet!!
  13. @beautiful_FrEaK thanks for the video... made me rub my hands together in anticipation... looking forward to these a lot. Nice - and nicely buttoned 😉 - WW2 jacket on Yuichi there too!!
  14. Thanks... after the 'button banter' in the questions thread the other day, I was being a bit tongue in cheek... The jacket is deliberately big in order to layer / wear other jackets underneath... and, as you spotted, it has pretty big sleeves, which I decided to use the button to tighten causing a more billowy effect which I'm okay with... cuffing is a good shout thanks... but adds some bulk when I tried it as you can see from the pics... will give it another go next time
  15. Freewheelers x 3 / Hollows / Lofgren... weekend off from WoM... been through 26 buttoning combinations to settle on these two 😜
  16. Thanks @Dr_Heech look fwd to that. As for me, no no nothing to see around here 😊
  17. Not unexpectedly, there are variations in the arcs even in the short period the "1942 model" was produced... The You Tube link has probably been shared here before... but just in case...
  18. Not yet... my man's waiting on the original thread from Toyo for the hem... no rush
  19. Any size 32 out there keen to snag some Roys? From Roy himself... 'I'll be posting some more stuff on my @roysjubilee IG very soon, if anyone is around size 32...'
  20. Love a good 'cape' styled denim jacket aka only the top button done up Unbuttoned 2nd button. Or maybe no button? No bother. Dude's still killin' it
  21. @Double 0 Soul look great with all them buttons buttoned apart from the bottom button... also my most used button configuration be it sitting at my desk, wandering around or lounging on the sofa...
