      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?

              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?

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

                      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.

                          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.

                                      I've been looking for dye locally, but no shop seems to sell it… So fuck it, ordering this:

                                      http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dylon-200g-Machine-Fabric-Dye/dp/B00782CC7W/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1393601289&sr=8-2&keywords=dylon+black+machine+dye

                                      Plan is to overdye my IHSH-77... It has this problem going...

                                      Now: how much of this stuff should suffice?.. 200 grams will do or?.. Anyone with some experience with this, please weigh in  🙂

                                        Have used Dylon myself and 200 grams and half a kilo of ordinary kitchen salt (very important as the fabric won't take up the dye otherwise) will work perfect for a shirt/sweater or anything cotton/linnen up to 600 grams worth of fabric …

                                          Thanks!.. How about left over residue?.. If I do two washes after that with dark clothes, will it be safe to do a white wash?..

                                            I did a second, individual 40c wash after the dying wash to fix the colour of the garment, and then another 40c with an empty machine just to clean it … and I made sure the next wash was one with just black clothing just to be 110% safe
