Christmas Wishlist 2019

@Chris:

Do teachers in Norway even have to work, or do you just show up occasionally to take toilet selfies and collect a paycheck?

(I'm just lashing out because I'm jealous…)

Hey! I take toilet selfies almost daily. The market for them amongst lonely American housewives whose husbands never have vacation time is insane. The grind is real, but it pays a lot more than teaching.

I like some of the vintage East West Musical Instruments jackets from the sixties and seventies, and Electric Leather Studio are a Japanese brand that is heavily inspired by them.

I like the Tex, but it'd be somewhere over $2000 to get one in my size, along with a trip to Japan to get fitted.

[Giles]

LOVE the hidden breast pockets…..

[Chap]

Only one wish 

[Giles]

Has to be Moofushi, or will any island do?

@Giles:

Yeah two weeks Moofushi

[Giles]

Have a ball.

@Giles:

Have a ball.

Thanks… very excited yet. Have you been there?

I really like the toe bug style stitching.  Not sure I'm sold on the fringe, but it does fit the overall aesthetic.

[Giles]

No, we normally go further north.  Or, if I am fishing, so the far south…...

Electric Leather Studio do some fringe free styles.

I don't mind the fringe, particularly when they don't do the sleeves. And the hidden pockets that @Giles commented on are pretty cool.

That jacket is a blinder @Graeme

@Chap are you spenning the holiday there?

@JDelage:

This Christmas is going to be special because it is going to be the last one we celebrate in my parents' home.

That is lovely, and of course a little sad. Enjoy!

@organisys:

OK. 

1. Suntory Hibiki (already 'found' in cupboard  :P)
2. To not tread on the kids new plastic toys after drinking the above…
3. Roasted Haunch Venison for Christmas Lunch.

1. Nice

2. Good luck with that [emoji1]

3. Very nice

I've been fortunate this year. Got sufficient amounts of clothing to last a good long while, and trying to resist impulse/want want want buys.

I sold a large hip hop collection for 3 figures so am happy to have upgrade my hifi system. The only things other than that I'd like

1.as a lover of dark rum, another decent bottle asI just finished one

2.a Lehmann Linear headphone amp - just picked one up to use with my Audio Technica A1000Z cans. My wonderful wife contributed.

3.a new belt

That's it really. Who knows what 2020 will bring, particularly in the UK and USA.

Make the best of what you have, and love those that love you. Hohoho!

@Chris:

1. More vacation time

That’s like North Koreans asking for more democracy… I feel for citizens of both your nations.

Heard. Currently taking unpaid parental leave. And getting shit from my boss for it.

Better a pissed boss than a pissed wife.

Yes… need a timeout in warmer climate.

Very relaxed resort: Sign at the jetty for the seaplane:

[Stuart.T]

@Chap, I misread that sign to say 'no new shoes', I'm finding messages where there are none!

[louisbosco]

kinda want a dyson v11 absolute pro. the v6 has been great but after 3-4years of service, i think it needs an upgrade. nobody likes chores but i gotta admit this v11 makes me wanna do it more..

A 'no new shoes' sign is what my wife has in mind, when has a look at my boot shelf
