      Thanks you all again, excited to get a western snap and learn directly. I continue to learn a lot  😘

      Aside, the thought/comments of western/cowboy ideology came from a BBC doco called The Power Of Nightmares (

      ).

        @Megatron1505:

        Does anyone use "What App?" It's a messaging app available for just about all smartphones, which allows you to send text, picture and video messages for free, even internationally, by using wifi or your phones existing data. I thought it sounded perfect for me for the NY trip, but not if no-one else uses it.

        I have and use it a lot actually!…not going to NY though 🙂

            For some balance on the snaps vs buttons thing:

            Snaps on shirts are quite a modern invention, they were [arguably] introduce by Wrangler in the mid 30's for rodeo riders so they wouldn't get hooked up by their buttons. They didn't really gain traction until after the War, so I think we can safely say that anyone who would have been considered a "proper Cowboy" would have had a button shirt.

            Buttons work better with heavy weight materials than snaps do, would you want snaps to fasten your jean flys and try fastening a heavy leather jacket like an Aero with snaps only?

              Should my next pair of jeans be Skull 5000xx or Fullcount 0105?

                  I use WhatsApp a lot. iMessage can timeout, if the recipient has no current data connection, and send a message a SMS instead. Might be better for NY if others are on it.

                                          Well, we'll both be in a foreign country- New York.  We should probably form some sort of truce to protect ourselves from the surly locals.
