My deepest condolences bags.

It's a good thing that Iron Heart meetups aren't more frequent.  Between the lack of sleep and the abuse to my liver, I don't think I could survive meeting you people more often.

not sure if this is appropriate or if the pic is disturbing, i'd gladly remove it .

anyway, an ex-schoolmate of mine passed away on the 20th Oct in the afternoon. its very sudden and saddening for such a young man to pass away so sudden. He is only 20 and still got a bright future ahead.

so, he was having lunch with his friends in myanmar (burma) and suddenly collapsed and was pronounced dead on the ambulance while rushing to the hospital. autopsy or whatever its called findings is heart failure. Goodbye my friend. I know you have gone to a better place. may the Lord be with you.

finn- yeah i agree! 2012 isn't a good year for me. lost my paternal grandmother in february then along the way, have a couple of close family/relatives falling sick like strokes and heart attack. then now my ex-schoolmate just go all of a sudden at a tender age of 20. sigh..

G- thank you so much G. appreciate it.

Bagley- thanks buddy. i feel your pain too. losing someone isn't a easy thing to get through. but i know they (my friend and your uncle) are in a better place now.

A rare case of a kid putting his hands on me happened at the end of my shift tonight.  To say I'm a little fired up would be an understatement.

I hate Barclays.

I transferred £150 across from the Netherlands to the UK to pay some outstanding rent, and got charged £6 for the pleasure. If it had been paid in Euros I'd have avoided the charge because of the SEPA rules.

sick of the constant influx of new micro denim companies poping up all doing the exact same thing
i think the lower end market is officially over filled with "options" now

[crankyfart]

just got my package from G and those bandanas are fantastic! took the green one out to use and less than a day, my mate's dog went to chew it when i left it on the table with my wallets. thank God there's no holes or tear. 

now i just need to have em' washed.  :-\

Feckin' dog… ate my Chippewa boots, or the tongue of one...Dunno which fecker of the three of them it was...

Watch this space for freshly made dog-fur mittens...

I do not want to open a shit storm here.  But I had a discussion about this when I was in NYC.  "Made in USA" can be great but equally it can mean "made by underpaid Mexicans (substitute a few other nationalities here if you so wish)  in USA".  I promise you, if I send denim to a sweat shop in LA, I can get jeans made for USD12 per pair.  That is simply not right - I know how much time and how many processes gord into making even a shit pair of jeans…
