      @Beatle:

      on a site note - looks like ur denim bag is getting a lot more evo than any of ur jawns ..kudos

      LOL, yes the bag gets lots of rough treatment!  I’m not so heavy on my jawnz… (note to self, must move more!)

      I thought I was at end of WT stint so have washed them ready for the handover to EmCeeQ, I enjoyed wearing them, they are extremely comfy  🙂  Not sure I added much to the evo 😞 but I feel very privileged to have unexpectedly taken part in the tour.

      That said, nice to be back in my everyday Beatle Busters which were abandoned for 4 weeks  🙂

                Sights from the train, leaving London and headed to Gosport.

                Here's a shot of the countryside with some castle off in the distance

                and a shot from the ferry.

                        emceeQ, u lucky bastard, looks like your wearing the 666D sample. If they are, they look damn good on you. It pretty much sold me on sizing up to a 38. I measured my chopped 811s today and found out they are a 38 waist but tagged at 36. Those world tours even look awesome folded up. 😉

                          Thanks man, you can be expecting to see a lot more of them.  The 666D will be getting heavy wear this summer…

                          and to continue with the world tour...

                          Dinner from last night was great.  G and P took me out to one of the local curry houses

                          Only a few hours in and already starting to get the WT's dirty

                          Expect fit pics later today

                              Mike has just left to spend the day in Portsmouth Dockyard.,  That is unless we decide to go fishing this afternoon, then he has to get back here pronto…..

                                Here are some pics from my trip over to the Portsmouth Historic Dockyards yesterday


                                First actual shot of the jeans on me.  Some proper fit pics will be up as soon as I get em of Giles' camera.

                                First order of business for the day was going aboard the HMS Victory.  It was Lord Nelson's flagship at Trafalgar, and I believe the oldest ship still in commission in the Royal Navy


                                The sun was so intense I had trouble getting decent pics from the outside, so this was a model of the Victory I found near by to give you an idea of what it looks like.  It was currently undergoing some maintenance, so the tops of the masts were removed


                                Here is what is currently left of the masts


                                The Victory had 104 guns on board.  This was one of the smaller 12-pound cannons


                                and one of the larger guns on board


                                Kept hitting my on that low ceiling the whole time I was in there


                                The officer's dining room, with Nelson's uniform in the background


                                The crew's sleeping areas were hammocks set more or less above the cannons


                                These were some surgeons tools from the ship, used during Nelson's time.  The doctors were particularly brutal, and could amputate a limb in a minute thirty

                                Next I hopped on a boat and took a tour around the harbor, seeing some of the newer ships the navy has.


                                The owner of NCP car parks also keeps his super yacht in Portsmouth Harbor.  He'll apparently let you stay there for a week in the harbor for a mere $500,000


                                This is Spinnaker tower.  It's got three observation decks up top. The top is open air, and the bottom has a glass floor that you can look down through.


                                This is the HMS Warrior, the first iron hulled warship

                                    Attempted to take some pictures later in the evening, but after some drinks my already lacking photography skills drop heavily.

                                    Hitting up the stock room later today to decide exactly what I'll be leaving with…
