Still waiting for the black on black Gustins I ordered back in 2007 (or so it feels like). Think they're due next week. Slightly worried that the none more black (warp and weft) will be overkill.

Not strictly denim but has anyone ordered any jacket soff Gustin? I'm quite liking the waxed cotton trucker...

i'm still having an identity crisis

Sweet.

I've hit a wall HARD this week. Decided to knock up some simple acoustic versions of things to keep the band page ticking over with new content but oh my DAYS have I lost my pizzaz. 27 takes of an acoustic guitar track. A similar number of the vocal. I've thought all of the mojo out of it. Urgh.

On the plus side, I am writing some awesome shiz and am booked into to record in germany on 19th -22nd Sep and lookign at dates at Gold Top and Soup Studios in October.

Oh and found this in my plugins and have been enjoying it on guitars very much:

yum.

All of which is cheerfully distracting me from the painfully obvious fact that I SUCK.

You need this.

sale?

I don't think i could ever do this. I got as far as 7 most of my most all time favourite beady white guy folk-rock faves then went "Gah! no jazz... no soul... no classical... no BEATLES or DYLAN wtf?"

Nope. I could never do this.

Will do. Been trying to dechipher the cuts on the Hanes uk bulk order site this morning but gave eup as everything not in XXXL was out of stock anyway. Cheers.

I'm still on the search for the perfect plain tee. Been researching tee shirt shapes and cuts, measuring up old favourites and trying to figure out exactly what it is I like about some and dislike about others. Got so far that I've been genuinely pondering the logistics of setting up a crowd-funded bespoke tee service along the lines of gustin but for specific cuts and sizes as opposed to styles. Short of that, who does light cotton tees with a slightly waisted fit. Not clingy "fitted" but just with a very slight taper.

Hi,
Anyone got a contact for a good builder to carry out brickwork repair, repointing and repairsto concrete balconies and metal balustrades? SE23
Five storey late 60s block budget c. £15k. Need a third quote in a hurry (have two already) so I can contract and get works done before winter.

It's dooks btw - haven't had time to sort out my weird multiple gmail/persona login issues yet.

Thankee

Yyyyyeah, no I don't think so. It's clearly a "thing" and I'm not sure one cowardly middle class white guy in his mid 30s choosing to re-appropriate a known signifier of UK militant fascism is really all that wise in the grand scheme of things. I'd really rather put as much distance as humanly possible between me any chance of being confused with that scene for my own wellbeing and peace of mind but more importantly for risk of offending anyone else. "Hey, I bet red laces would look cool on these" is not a worthy enough counter argument to knowingly run that risk Id' suggest. Stupid nazi cunts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MkRuV0aCcI

Anyway. Back to the loafers and brogues.

And now they've cost me the price of a pair of bootlaces. In many ways it's the worth thing they've ever done.

Dunno. I'm sure most of it's trumped-up playground urban myth bellendery of the highest order but offence is all about perception at the end of the day and I'd rather not take any chances with offending anyone with that shit. So yeah. Black laces back in. All good. Move along.

Bah. I feel really stupid now. I had no idea that was a "thing". I understand the validity of the symoblism is arguable these days but still... now I know I can't plead ignorance any more. Fscking hell.

Coming from you Nuknow, that's high praise. Edit: just read about poss racist connotations of red laces. Hmmmm. Suddenly not so sure it 's a good look.

Old school

Bah, cancelled my account. Fourth bag was the fourth one that was far too lightly roasted for my tastes. Plus, totally not PACT's fault, but with the vaguaries of the mail system in this creaking behemoth of a building, stuff would get despatched on Monday but not turn up at my desk till Friday. That meant that it would often be over a week since it was ground before I got to make a pot the following Monday. Which, while not a disater does sort o fdefeat the object of the service doen't it? I tried getting it sent on a friday to try and have it ready for Monday but... nope. It's a good service and the quality of the coffee in undeniable. Just not to my tastes and the fact I couldn't make the delivery work for me either means I'm oot.
