I thought you might need it for any inflatable nails you find sticking out. 

Feel free to trash it G, apologies for leaving it behind

Cross post from the NY thread :

I get paid whilst I am in NY, and the chances are I will spend myself into the ground. Is there anywhere that I can access my UK bank account in NY? I know in Tokyo I could use "Citibank" ATM's, is this the same for NY?

[Giles]

You can use you card in almost any ATM.  Well. let's put it this way, I have never found one that won't work in USA…..

And I would be supremely confident in that answer, if it wasn't for the fact that my bank was recently absorbed by a bunch of useless feckpigs…...otherwise known as Santander.

I'm not sure if I'm hoping to get my annual bonus in my next pay or not, on the one hand great !! On the other hand I would doubt that it would survive NYC  :o

Please feel free to use The National Bank of Padmore.  Payday loans a speciality….

[Megatron1505]

I assume your interest rates are unreasonable  :-\

[Giles]

Seriously unreasonable - your first-born will be be at risk…..

[Megatron1505]

Sold !!! 

I hope you kept the inflatable hammer 

[Giles]

I punctured and binned it last night….

Your card should work in most ATMs. I travel there with mine quite a lot. Sometimes you may need to try a couple as you will get the odd, random failure but in NYC there's plenty around. I almost never have any problems with my UK cards at POS terminals in the US though.

Thanks unharmed 

G, I guess Tom will have to get used to his new life as your "wood carrying slave" then 

[Giles]

Works for me…...

[Seul]

Your bank was taken over by a malafide Spanish group known to be in huge financial problems… I reckon it's safe to assume you will not see your bonus, mang...

Mega, if you have a Maestro debit card you can withdraw cash at just about any ATM … (And there's always visa/mastercard etc...)

Thanks guys, I have Visa debit so that should be ok 

Seul, fuck it dude, time to take a massive loan I reckon. Then we can sort out if they owe me more, or I owe them more

Has anyone bought the Self Edge x Iron Heart x Leather Soul jeans? I would like to see pictures of how they fade before making a decision on buying them. The denim is super heavy (23 Oz) : http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=71&products_id=847&zenid=f8b35700f7d03f39c0816a003081fd11

I am not sure how comfortable these jeans would be in the summer.

Thanks for your help.

So I've been thinking about this for the past few months. I've kept an eye out for the answer, haven't seen, so asking here.

Question(s)

1. Why the western theme/aesthetic? What's it talking to about? I understand that westerns represent a simpler time of good/bad, and USA was The Good. IH's not a repro company, as I have read, and the clothing is very forward, yet, frequently in a Western style.

1.1 Snaps. Even when it's not a western cut, frequently the clothing has Snaps. Why? What's the source of snapping everything. The shirts are beautiful and very vercitile, until the Snaps are added, and then they're thrown back to being hat-tips to Western clothing. In terms of wearability, Snaps are a no-go in the office. The cut, and clothing, would work perfectly, just without the snaps.

So I guess I've saved 1000's due to western cuts and snaps. I LOVE the attention to detail of ALL IH, Love the clothing, the cuts, the fits, even the ethos I'm aware of.  I don't understand why western and then why snaps on non-western clothing.

Appreciate your times in answering.

Kindly Thanks.
