Introduce Yourself Here

[goldstone0]

Hi I'm Steve, from the South Coast of England (near Brighton just over an hour from IHUK HQ), now living in Queensland, Australia. Picked up my first IH jeans last year when I visited Rivet & Hide, then a few weeks later went to Gosport just to get my jeans hemmed and my lovely wife picked out a jacket & shirt whilst we were there. It's been downhill for my wallet ever since.

Hi everyone ! I'm Quentin from Belgium. My friends use to call me Mister big Q or Quentinium. Living in a small town 20 minutes drive from Brussels. Bought my first shirt last week, really love the fabric of that 14 double cloth. Tighter than what I was thinking but still wearable. Did order a 888-XHSib that I should receive tomorrow. Did use a lot the forum to look for advice and my friend @Heavy_blue told me that I should interact on the forum as well

Hi everyone. Jeff here. Been lurking on the forum for a while and thought I’d introduce myself. I live in Minnesota in the USA. The cold weather and long winters here lends itself well to Iron Heart clothing. I enjoy reading everyone’s post, seeing how you all style your garments, and watching your threads (and mine) evolve over time. I work in higher education, am a big fan of rock music, travel, and mountain biking. Looking forward to interacting with the board a bit more and getting to know the group. Cheers!

@Mizmazzle genuine question, is 'lower education' the actual term used to describe the demographic that you teach?

[tody]

@T4920 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_education I guess that is referring to the age group he's teaching.

[jdwaid]

@tody I teach students pursuing graduate degrees. All are adult learners.

[jdwaid]

@Mizmazzle I’ve been digging your classroom WAYWT posts. Nice to meet you

[Mizmazzle]

@T4920 I was mostly being a smart ass about the age group I teach. Since I teach 5th grade (10-11 year olds) they are essentially still fetus stage by my own jaded description. Technically this would be considered “intermediate” by elementary school terminology.

@jdwaid thanks buddy. As cranky as I can be about teaching at times (most times ) I really do love it. How long have you been teaching college aged people?
