WHAT ARE YOU DOING TODAY (PICS)

[Graeme]

I was in Preston today, and took a look at some of the modern architecture there. If you fancy a bit of light brutalism, read on!

This is the Guild Hall. The pillars and front are being clad in timber to soften its look.

Preston Bus Station is considered to be an architecturally important building. It's also been under threat of demolition for the last few years.

The Holiday Inn.

Now for something a bit earlier, this is Lancastria House, a 1930s Art Deco building. It's also under threat of demolition, for no discernable reason. It also features in the upcoming film, "A Monster Calls".

On Monday I took a trip up to the Aero Leathers factory in Galashiels. This is the shop floor.

Chris, who runs Picking and Parry in Melbourne is after an Aeromarine in the natural Vicenza horsehide. I found him one, which was already starting to darken and evolve.

I liked this Board Racer, which was a size too small for me. It was made of a blue-black Horween hide, which was really nice.

David Vanian, lead singer of The Damned, is a long time Aero fan. He'd left his Barnstormer behind as a part exchange for a new jacket. I must have just missed him!

And here he is in his new Cropduster. The picture was stolen from Aero's Instagram feed.

Nice! Your jeans are looking great, too, Graeme! UHR?

Yeah, they're the 1955 UHRs. I've had them for about three years now, and they've had a fair amount of wear, though the season is a bit limited in Australia.

Ran the half.  Makes Thanksgiving feel less gluttonous.

@ROman:

Today I'm starting to cook for tomorrows food fest, for 15 relatives. I always love it about 12 hours of food prep for a meal that takes about 30 minutes to devour, if that. Depending on how much I drink, I'll post some photos under what are you cooking today. Happy Thanksgiving by the way.

Fortunately or not I never took a single picture.

It was worth getting up early at -10°C. My Deck Coat kept me super warm.
