Part 2 of 2 Update
So! We've had another big big delivery dropped off at our doorstep this week
We were essentially 'ripped' after carrying it all in.
Paula standing in as a size comparison
We got new CHUPS…
The Kogin, Snow of Life and Solas. Look how excited @Madame Buttonfly is yo!
IHM-15's have arrived as well!
Pushing our way through each and every box we can…..
And then out come the brand new IHSH-130's in Grey/Black! It's so beautiful…
Here's the mountain of jackets lined with shaven alpaca fur!
Working hard while others are working hard too.
Stacks on stacks on stacks of UHFs.
@Matt saw this and his inner child just couldn't resist.
All he needed was a NO GIRLS ALLOWED sign and he'd be set.
That'll be it for now! Go grab yourself a new Flannel as it's getting pretty chilly.. at least here in the UK
Have a blessed weekend.

Hello again and happy FRIDAY!!
So as you all know.. we got the Blue/Cream IHSH-131 and 101-BC Blue/Cream Buffalo & Flannels in! I quite like the colors on this one
The IHG-055 had arrived recently as well and almost flew out as soon as they came.
This is what @Giles would say "Sold Like Hotcakes".Here are basically all of the stacked mugs waiting to be shipped out to their respective owners.
We got a new toy!! The Crew thought it would be beneficial to have another iMac for public use and not solely for the editing pleasures of @Sam … Here's @Matt and G ecstatic to open it up!
Ahhh.. the fresh smell of new electronics…
Apple. You truly are the future..
Helloooooo new iMac all set up and ready to rumble
We also had a customer whose rivet on the UHR Denim had unfortunately popped off after soaking! He sent them back in and Giles showed us the low down on how to install a new one properly..
All the tools you really need… excluding hammer.
Place the rivet and the back of the nipple
as so…
Position yourself and give it a good couple of whacks
Voila! You got yourself a fixed rivet.
Missing some core people of course (myself especially included on that list), @Lindsey 's first Fish & Chips Friday with a visit from @Graeme
My stomach is currently hating me right now for having basically persuaded everyone in the office for Fish & Chips… But I honestly think that's everyone's relationship with England's Finest Gourmet Dish.
Last but not least.. here's the view from the gym during the annual Gunwharf Quays Fireworks Extravaganza! Quite a spectacle and I've never seen so many people in one place in Portsmouth...
That's it for now. Always new things to learn here at IHUK.
Have a fantastic weekend guys!

I think I would have said "sells like crack"…..

^^^ Told you! ^^^ @PattyCakez
-
I considered it….......
-
It was good to meet you @PattyCakez, along with catching up with the crew.
@Giles was upset with me, though. Not only did I fail to buy anything, but the Chesterfield sofa he'd been after turned out to be the one I'd bought, and I'm entirely to blame for an upcoming dent to his bank balance when he orders one up!
-
Happy Friday again! The weather's getting windy, rainy and colder here in South England, but c'est la vie!
To start things off, @Giles showed me and @Lindsey how to repair holes in fabrics by darning them up.
Here's the hole that needs repair
And here it is towards the end of its darning treatment! Wooooahh.
With so much product flying in, we've been trying to figure out where to hang everything.. Luckily we have a sheeit ton of bamboo laying around so G placed them strategically around the office… As so.
Here's Lindsey slaving away to bag em up…
G purchased a cool 'high reach hanger hook' to help us out hang clothes in those hard to reach areas.. But due to the amount of clothes we usually place in a certain area it'll work 75% of the time. The other 25% will have unwanted garments tumbling down with you scrambling to keep them from hitting the floor. C'est la vie.
@Madame Buttonfly helping support it up while I takes the photo.
Unfortunately, I was a bit sick these past couples of days, so I essentially missed what could've been a great opportunity to get high as a flying kite from the huffing of glue with the crew putting this beauty together..
More space to measure and dance mfkas!!!!!
This all being said and done, it's been a very busy (but productive) couple weeks again. Thanks to all you guys keeping up with my adventure here, and please do enjoy this (almost) double rainbow..

Guess what tomorrow is….
You got it. THE 1ST OF DECEMBER. This basically means every parcel we send out starting from now until Christmas(ish) time will receive a little one of these cute Iron Heart logo'd Chocolate bag things.
When we first opened up the box…
it reminded me somewhat of this….
Here's to hoping none of you receive any cursed gold from us. Just kidding, we look forward to the orders and hope you guys are keeping warm in these arctic freezing temperatures. Except for the Aussies, we're really quite envious of you guys right now.

Speak for yourself… Finally some decent bloody temperatures...

Haha I don't think I'm ever going to get used to going to the gym before work in the morning through negative degree temperatures… But maybe..
