Triple Works - The New Jeans World Tour
-
The last night of our holidays there was this amazing sight:
back home, we went to see In the Night Garden:
most of the kids were a bit restless after 20 minutes and a there were a few genuinely terrified toddlers screaming their heads off.Grabbed some apples from the garden last night:
chucked them in a pot with some raisins and cinnamon…...
porridge topping sorted for the week.
then knocked up some guacamole and salsa….
-
A bit more cooking.
A little drink first…..
ingredients…
in go some onion, garlic, courgette and beetroot….
add tomatoes. purple pasta sauce.
another drink…
something I preordered in May turned up
here's where we live. We're about 4 miles from the centre of Birmingham. That's my Citroen. Off for a stroll….
just round the corner isWilli WonkasCadburys
part of the factory (employee's swimming baths)
the sports ground
When you walk through the factory the smell of chocalate is almost too much.,I was salivating and wanted to stuff a load of choc bars into my face.
George Cadbury, a Quaker, started the company way back when and built a load of housing and well, a whole village for his employee's. No bloody pubs though…... or off licences either. It's absolutely beautiful, here's the school
and over the road is the art college. I studied Graphic Design here when I was 16.
this is Selly Manor, which was built in the 1300s sometime. Mr Cadbury had it moved from about mile away as it was to be demolished.
then off to the park on the musical slide
more music when we got home

emceeQ - this is book 2 of his current series, the first one being "X'ed out" (which reminds me - I'll post more details in the comics thread I started
)[size=2]Seul - I know, I know… but there's this bloke on some forum who says he'll sell me a dream car, a real nice runner, a Peugeot I think he said it was......
-
Still probably an improvement over a Citroën…
-
…
yeah whatever..... It's been better than my last car (a Rover). Now that was bad.
Final update coming later, the WTs are washed and ready to ship to ChuckDenim. -
Skoda before that, (the old ones, not a VW). That was a shit heap. Before that had a Vauxhall Astra, which was very kindly stolen, and my first car was a '72 VW Beetle. which I broke.
As you can see, cars are low on my list of priorities…. -
Wow. Just… wow. Cars are pretty low on my priority list, but if I had a string like that, I'd just give up driving altogether. I sincerely feel sorry for you, buddy.:)

Thanks Friday, oh and thanks for the sympathy Chris
.
Sorry for the lack of updates, been housebound. here's the last lot:about a mile down the road from us is Cannon Hill Park. Harrys first time feeding the ducks.
I love the autumn, nice light, long shadows, heavy flannel weather:
The park is next to Edgbaston cricket ground, which has just be done up
some more grub. Portabello mushrooms with taleggio cheese. (Next time I'm using Stilton).
Before:
After:
and finally, some pics of the WTs:
as you can see, stuff is happening. After squeezing myself into them they're measuring 16.75 at the waist, pre wash, so it looks like they've not stretched out much, if any.
I forgot to measure anywhere else before I posted them, but I'd love something like this in the leg but with my proper waist. Would that possibly be a 666?Ok, they're off to ChuckDenim now, I'm expecting some beautiful photography…
Thanks for enduring my sporadic leg!
-
Yeah, beautiful pics and a wonderful leg of the tour. Thanks for participating, MoD.

Hello all,
I got the jeans two days ago. The denim is really beautiful, the construction is well done and I like the overall fit.
The only problem is, I can´t close the topbutton but it works with a belt. They stretch over the last two days and I think a few more days and I will be able to button them.
Fitpics:
Today I packed a parcel for Mr. Schmidt (Nietenhosen). He works on a denim-jacket for me.
He want a jacket too, so I send him 3 meter of 14oz japan denim and buttons for two jackets.
Mr. Schmidt please show us some pics!
