It really fills me with joy to see those little pants. What a stunningly kind gesture.

some loon who flies around the town in a massive Land Rover wearing a wet suit and randomly berating passers by…..his wife is lovely though 

I forgot I told you that I'd insured the Land Rover for @Winchy

And the wet suit….

Are you trying to shrink Tommy there? Or is that his first bath of the year? :o

^He's likely had a machine wash earlier, this is the in-between-machine-soak by the look of it?

Tommy??? 

[Giles]

It's a completely unnecessary soak after being delivered, but Tommy had seen Gav doing it in a pair of Raws, so was not going to be dissuaded…..

Do we talk about the 21oz denim?
I have two 634s pairs, the first pair did not get a soak, the second pair got a soak. I have to say the second pair lasts longer, no ripped threads, pocket bags are still intact, and the denim fades slowly and nicely. Maybe it's just me, but I think Tommy did everything right with the soak.

[Giles]

We do.  The thing is with the 21oz, it is sanforised and we one-wash it anyway…..

In my innocence, I thought swimming would miraculously make me fit.  Imagine my disappointment when I started to hurt, and for weeks on end, dared not swim.

I had an MRI last week.  @Madame Buttonfly and I went for the prognosis tonight.  Yes, not only do (did) I have a deformity of the toes, I have a deformity of the spine.  Interestingly enough, related issues.

In my neck I have 3 fused cervical vertebrae.  This basically means my neck is nowhere as mobile as it should be (and, as my darling wife says, makes me look like a tortoise) and the swimming has effectively exposed the problem.

Expert advice.  Take a couple of Nurofen before you swim and a couple a few hours later.  Which is 100% fine with me.  Now I know what the issue is, I can stop worrying and get on with swimming etc etc…..

Exactly.  I'm actually very relieved…..

Take care, Giles and get well soon (if that's the term to use here).
