My oak steets are off a bit. I figured it was that reason right away and went with it. Bugged me for a bit but now I don't care.

Well for what it's worth Guy said that the lasting process is literally done "by feel." I don't see this as an to dodge the issue, but rather an honest accounting for what is happening when boots are crafted in this way. G said it first: embrace the small "imperfections."

@Spring:

Now you can all go back to measuring how many centimeters off your seams are.

*4c runs off to get his ruler…  and…  (sigh of relief) perfect.

I need help in Flat Head boots sizing. For those who own one, does it fit tts. If I'm a US9 should I go the same with FH boots? Thanks.

@SSoL, fwiw go with your gut feeling inside says ok then wear em hard, if still the inside argues then opt for a repair/a swap? which Guy offered. I do understand the sentiment of wanting the boots for what the monies they worth. Who don't right?

As for me personally, the vibergs that i have are not all perfect..  there are (minoorrrrrr) flaws here and there but that makes them special to me.

I set up a hashtag in Photo Bucket - pbIronHeart

But every time I put a photo in Photo Bucket and tag it with that tag, it gets posted in Facebook, which I don't want.

Anyone know if I can turn that "feature" off?

@Giles. Hopefully this will help you:

Now can anyone explain how our favourite Belgian has a better written command of the English language than many native UK English speakers?

It has been bugging me for a while now.

Is our education system really that bad?

[Giles]

I think it's because our favourite Belgian learnt his English from Captain Hastings…..

Very good Giles!

I'm just wondering where he picked up the Cockney accent…

[sabergirl]

Well, I can't speak to education in the UK, but I know that in the US there is less emphasis on proper writing than one would hope for.  I also think that people who study English as a second language are often more careful and precise with their usage, because the desire is there to do it right.  The rest of us don't give a fuck if our communication is perfect, because we haven't ever struggled to make ourselves understood in our native language.

Fooked if I know…

[SeruRitchi]

Talking of Cockney, I live in Barnet, which is Cockney rhyming slang for hair (from Barnet Fair). E.g. "Look at his ridiculous Barnet".

Quite (in)appropriate in this context really and I don't have much left myself so I really shouldn't have brought it up. I'll get me coat.

Sabergirl that is until it devolves into something indecipherable (he says while checking Twitter)

I'm intruiged with stuff like "I'll 'ave a butcher's"… Wondering where it originated from...

[Giles]

Cockney rhyming slang.
