      Tattoos don't bother me, though I don't see many in my profession.  I work in a fairly conservative field; lots of older, rural white dudes.  If they have tats at all, they tend to be faded old military ones, or occasionally the prison variety.

      I have to admit that I don't really like lots of piercings and gauges- they're distracting.  Nothing against the people that have them, it just makes it harder for me to concentrate.

      All that aside, I have to admit, I've teased my brother and one nephew for years over some of their less "cool" tattoos.

          Nothing wrong with a bean-handle or a hood-grip 😃

            Hate the things… Same with nipple piercings... All other areas are fair game, though  😉

              The fun thing about nipple piercings is you can thump them for amusement.  They just LOVE it. 😃 😃

                I might have missed it at some point, but are all IHUK orders going out via UPS now? (Can I still get Parcel Force/ Canada Post to Canada?)

                  I asked for my new TWSH-03 to be sent via Parcel Force/Canada Post and IHUK agreed to do it. Don't forget to ask nicely…

                      … this first event, I'd play it safe.

                      been there done that!
                      wore my JMC's and my white TWSH-01…was the perfect combo for 27 degrees+ weather and besides that everything was covered 😉

                      the "official" part of the summerevent was from 9am-3pm...after that i decided to skip the Wutang show in the evening and better spend the rest of the day with a bunch of cool and pretty chill (also tatted) work colleagues just to get to know them a bit better and all.
                      So after a few beers, we o/ course "talked ink" and since I felt pretty comfortable after a certain time, I went ahead and "answered" their questions on why I'm running around covered up the whole day...they took it with a smile 🙂

                      all is good now and we ended the day/nigth with having some great food, beer and vino...you can tell it got pretty late 😃

                      and the decision to skip the wutang show was a great one. there's nothing better than to spend some quality time with some new colleagues/friends!

                        Shipping EMS to Canada costs us twice as much as shipping UPS Express, but it is something we are happy to do, just ask us at check out.  I have said it before, but I will say it again, Canadian Customs are more venal than they would be in a country run by Atilla the Hun and his latest wife Lucrezia Borgia

                                    Honestly, I prefer Quabaug which Whites use (surprise from the baldy fan boy), but I think aesthetically Cats Paws are really cool.

                                    Mega, Quaboag is the name if my high school and I'm pretty sure the factory, Quaboag Rubber makes them. They also make Vibram soles.

                                      It's not our customs that gets me to have g&p&a ship to me parcel force . It's the brokerage fee that ups charges on top of the duty. Duty doesn't bug me its the brokerage fee that ruins it for me

                                        How much is the brokerage fee?  We too get charged a brokerage fee in the UK if the thing is stopped and taxes applied, but it does not often happen.  Is the fee in Canada disproportionately high such that UPS is incentivised to charge duty.

                                          usually its just a bit more then the duty
                                          say the duty was $50, the brokerage fee would be like $59
                                          and the last package you sent me ups i got hit with brokerage fees and no duty
                                          which makes no sense what so ever

                                            That is some serious incentive to stop the packages…..
