@neph93 , I'll be taking a pass on my next go-round. @jordanscollected may have my spot.
-
many thanks @scooter, I will tour it with pride. My wife and I don't have kids, so I have free time to do random shit up the wazoo.
-
I am happy to take this for another round. Sounds like a good plan letting @neph93 take it during the summer. I know I wouldn't be able to give it much wear in the warmer months. I am struggling to wear a T-shirt at work at the moment let alone a jacket

Tomorrow is the last day of my second round.
Jacket is washed and drying (expecting two days) at the moment.Today I had the chance to visit one of my favorite record shops.
Was focused on singles!
This is the result of 30minutes.
My faves are laying on the inside of the jacket !!
PIL and Minor Thread on the left and Kraftwerk and Fehlfarben on the right.
This was drawn a few years earlier than the following film…..

@Aetas is quite a guy. Not only was his second leg with the tour jacket very entertaining and creative he chooses great shipping and is a ninja when it comes to efficient, safe, packing, and even smuggling. Norwegian customs have let the rather large box with the jacket through customs, toll free, and clearly didn’t notice the rather lovely, big bottle of beer it contained.
Not only was there great beer but there was also a Borussia Dortmund t-shirt (current LFC manager Klopp’s last club), and a big bag of sweets. I’m sure @Aetas meant for me to have it all, but the tee will be a little small, and I will generously allow my children to have the sweets [emoji1]
Thank you, so much buddy. That was great fun to unpack.

As for my leg, we are taking a break from the schedule so the jacket can spend a summer in the cooler climate of Norway.
On Tuesday, I will be packing up half the family and starting 1000km drive over half the length of the country between my home town of Bodø and the village of Stordal, near Ålesund. Hot Ingrid and I will have our two smallest boys with us and we’ll use three days to make the journey, stopping for some summer fun on the way. We will then spend five days in Stordal visiting my mother in law’s family, hopefully doing some fishing and hiking too. We will then use three days to travel back.
The jacket will be coming along for the ride and I hope to take you all along with me, at least virtually.
I’ll be keeping hold of the jacket until the end of August, when, global warming allowing, I’ll pack it off to the next honorable tourist as Autumn approaches.

They are not his helpers, they are his trusted lieutenants and commanders.
