      I found a pic of a FreeBee jacket… Looks good, as suspected:

        That was one of my fave jackets of all time.  The only one I could get was at least a size too small, but I loved it nonetheless.  I eventually I realised it was miles small so I auctioned it off….

            @Giles Apart from this book called Weaving: Conversion of yarn to fabric, which other books would you suggest to someone who wants to understand all that goes behind a pair of jeans?

            Amazon Link - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0900541784?tag=vig-21

            Thanks,

                Why is it that when I receive a new pair of jeans in a denim that I haven't owned before, they become my favourite?  Then three weeks later, I rotate to one of my other pairs that I have had for a while and I think, "Why haven't I been wearing these, these are fantastic?"

                Do I have the addiction yet?  🙂

                    It's heading in that direction  😃 What pair are you on now?

                        It's funny you brought up buying an extra pair.  I bought a pair of Beatle Busters because they were going extinct.  I had my first pair for only a couple of months.

                        I know there are at least 6 or 7 pair in the closet, it really depends if it's my wife asking or someone else.

                        I can't sneak the blue bag in the house anymore.  She is on me like a hawk as soon as she hears the plastic being ripped open.  😉

                          UHR…and buying the contest denim-move along, nothing to see here.  😛
                          do you mean 6 or 7 pair of BB's??  The man knows what he likes.

                          Well, I have others.

                            @steelworker I just got my hands on a pair of lightly used  UHR (I got into the IH game after they were pretty much extinct) and I have to say they are fast becoming my favorite IH denim and definitely worthy of a "closet second pair".

                              When I type @Giles or any other name in Tapatalk, it doesn't tag that person. However, the same message tags the person when I do it from the forum. Why?

                              Or am I doing it wrong in Tapatalk?

                                  Tapatalk doesn't support the tagging feature.

                                      @Giles Has the suggestion of a drawstring bag (either free or at a nominal price) been made earlier?

                                      Since I don't feel good about tagging you each time I have a question, is there a common group or handle I can use which will notify a set of people (like the Mods) to answer the question?

                                      Slack (a popular office collaboration tool) also has this option where you can tag people in a particular group using @all, @channel, et cetera?

                                      For example, something like @Mods - Is this a good question?

                                        I read every post anyway, so no need to tag me.  I have turned notifications off, so I don't get a notification anyway  🙂 .

                                        We used to do a drawstring bag, Rocket has one, but I lost interest in them because even at the lowest price I could do, they weren't really a nominal price…..
