Introduce Yourself Here
-
hey thanks, Lando!
oh, and sorry for my poor english, guys. -
Yes absolutely - Stewart was checking MY Italian - and I actually used google translate to say "hello and welcome" (if that's what I actually said), because my Italian is pretty much limited to "ciao"! (But isn't "ciao" the best word ever?)
And Stewart, how will I ever get the chance to go madly off topic with G looking over my shoulder? I'll keep trying though….
-
cool, cool. I was just saying cause my english tends to be nonsensical, especially after a few beers.
-
hey and how nice and polite you guys are! I am really not used to it.
-
My English is often nonsensical even before a few beers… if I could ever speak Italian a tenth as well as you speak English, I would be so happy!
And yes, I tend to be a bit polite, but G makes up for me by being really rude a lot of the time....
:o
-
No, that's the real Lemmy. I don't look like him at all.
But I do play the bass in a punk rock band -
OK, you noticed, I'm a bit of a twitcher. I love all of our feathered friends, especially owls, and I spend a lot of time looking after and at our little birdy garden visitors. My big current excitement is that after waiting two years we have a blue tit nesting in my camera monitored nesting box! Here is a fit pic of the little darling, if he/she mates and builds a nest I'll be posting regularly (unless G throws me off the Forum, and sends me to a nuthouse).
-
Thanks for bring us back in line, Simon!
Stewart, yes I think you're right about empty nest syndrome, but I have to say the birdy in the nest box is much lower maintenance than 19 year old son…!
Anyway, now I'm getting to know my way around the forum I promise that any future news on tweety-pie will be posted to "random announcements" (watch this space...)

Hello! I’ve been browsing these forums for a month or so now, I guess its time to join in, seems like a nice friendly place
Confession time : I don’t (yet) own any IH jeans. It’s a brand I always promised myself but can’t seem to make the commitment to breaking in that heavy weight denim! I very nearly pulled the trigger on a pair of the 5th Anniversary 21/23oz in SE NYC last week but got side tracked by some Canes instead, please don’t hold it against me.

you wont be banished man…at least not until the tribunal!
hahahaha, just kidding. welcome. you are, i believe, the 3rd simon here. -

[/quote]A pair of jeans pretty much breaks in by the 14th wear. At least, that's how long it took for me to break in my IH301S. I sized down one since the jeans stretch 1 around an inch. NO real pain…just beautiful agony
broken in by the 14th wear - really!! With 14oz denim I reckon it takes me about 3 months of average wear to set the creases? Decent fades take forever, I've got far to much denim in rotation!

i think simon626 meant that the denim sits better/more comfortable within 14 days, not that his creases were locked into position in 2 weeks.
