      Brilliant, but so stupid exchange tonight…

      G What is this fish we are eating?
      S It's Puffer Fish
      G What are these large round, soft bits
      H Those are the male's testicles
      G What!?
      H Yes, I always feel a bit, sorry that I am eating my best friends......

      It actually got even more stupid and risqué after that, but even I will not repeat in public.....

            Is that a Rolex watch unattended by its owner?

            No it's @Alex 's 30th birthday present, a Grand Seiko SBGA463, IMHO, a significantly better watch than the equivalent Rolex

            Also significantly better than any of the 30th bday presents I got.  😞

                    That sort of Moorish Revival building in the middle of Japan is very intriguing and cool — wonder what it was/is? Looks old. So rad.

                              Billed as 14 but the way he have woven is that it is super dense to give it a dark face so it feels more like 17oz. Traditional broken twill denim is woven under very high tension to give it a smooth face, ours is woven with lower tension in the earl to give the face plenty of character.

                              All cuts would be the plan…..

                                  I only had to wait twelve years for Haraki to warm up to the idea…

                                  (or is this one of those things he doesn't like, but decided to do because you convinced him it could work in the international market?)

                                        He's very proud of it, but I am not sure he entirely likes it…..Undecided whether he will sell in Japan.  I asked him once (when you came up with the original idea), I got zero response, so did not ask again.

                                        I was only musing 2 days ago how much I would like to see an IH broken twill, but that it was unlikely to happen.  Then he slammed that on the table yesterday.

                                        Someone at the meeting said that it is like he is in my mind, and knows when I am about to ask for something "outrageous" and beats me to the question by showing me before I can open my mouth.....
