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…..

[emceeQ]

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

[Giles]

And here is Mike…

Sitting by the pond - we tend to do a lot of that in the summer...

Sitting outside Hardys (used to be Landers) - we tend to do a lot of that in the summer….

[emceeQ]

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…

[Friday]

Thanks for sharing and reporting emceeQ, I bet them 'Gosportarians' are one hell of a great hosts.. And sunny day in Gosport ?????? 

I guess Paula's wish was granted!  ::)

[Giles]

Today the World Tours went ing (that is fishing without the fish).  Mike and Paula decide to tuck into some grub….

[MikeC]

@MikeC:

Giles is just the driver

[Giles]

Let's see how fast thus baby will go…..

It was a super-nice day (until the fog came down)…

The WT are under table (honest)..

[emceeQ]

Relaxing and getting ready to leave the harbor

Giles is in his element, ready to get to some fish

Paula put together an absolutely fantastic dinner for us all

Unfortunately a fog rolled in out of nowhere.  Where did that fort and the shore go?

The fog decided to clear as we were coming in

[Giles]

[FurattoHeddo]
