Is there a way to add a marker to the map?
I'm probably missing something obvious...

We have some bad news...and we have some good news.

 

Bad news first:

We won't be able to make the December 21st start date. This is mainly because the contest leather patches with the new die won't be ready in time to let Simone send out the jeans as planned.
If he pushes the shipping further back, we will interfere with the crazy amounts of packages during Christmas and thus the risk of delays or lost packages might go up. We don't want to risk this.
This is also a reason we think January 1st (new year, new jeans) won't work as well.

 

Good news:

We found the perfect alternative start date...*drum roll*... January 17th!
As you all probably know, January 17th is the Italian "World Pizza Day" (https://www.gruppouna.it/en/magazine/world-pizza-day#:~:text=World Pizza Day is celebrated,Neapolitan tradition and ancient customs.)
So which day would be more appropriate?!

Bummer about the delay but no worries, new expected start date is the day before my wife's due date. Should be a fun contest!

I think that’s what started it all in the first place! 😊

Shame about the delay but totally understand and am excited for Pizza Day!!

@Broark that will make the comp and the jeans all the more special, and it does sound cliched at this point but trust me you'll be washing them more often!!!! 

@reallypeacedoff messaged you my location, thank you for sorting!!

looks lurvely mk.2!!! thanks for sharing!

@UkeNo - due to the sizing up (I have gone for a 40 assuming it will shrink to 38, but given stretch may go back to 40) I requested these as insurance! Generally pairs stop getting worn because they're too small but I worried I may have gone the other way; with this pair I wanted his lovely neat top block stitching with maximum leg volume; the cinch and the extra buttons hopefully will ensure maximum length of wear (fingers crossed at least) - I get the fomo when seeing @JRendon02's dynamic and chic 1942 pair... but I have been pining for a '37 so must commit (and I read lvc blabbology somewhere that levis used to supply extra suspender buttons to the ol' timers who bought 501s from post '37 so I put myself in that whitehaired camp rather than thinking I have a mashed up '33) - belt and/or braces for the next 18 months!

and thanks to @MJF9 for getting the request through!
