Once you wear them in and the color fades a little you won't even see them

Qinhan sold me his IHSH-16 for 175 $. I added 7 $ to cover the fee, so that adds up to 182.

Through the Paypal conversion, this came to 146 €.

Conversion from:
-€146,20 EUR
Conversion to:
$182,00 USD
Exchange rate:
1 Euro = 1,2448 U.S. Dollars

Date:
11 Jul 2013

Adam, though, to cover up for Paypal's fucked up conversion rate, which is ALWAYS in your disadvantage, had to pay me 197 $!..

Conversion from:
-$197,00 USD
Conversion to:
€146,02 EUR
Exchange rate:
1 U.S. Dollar = 0,7412 Euros

Date:
21 Jul 2013

And no: the exchange rate has not shifted drastically in 10 days… It is almost the EXACT same actually!..

And by the way, using an OFFICIAL currency exchanger, 197 $ is not 146 € but 197.00 USD = 149.926 EUR

Pure fucking mafia style…

I need to spend less time on the internet, it's warping my tiny mind

I wasn't thinking of the IH forum

I need to spend less time on the internet.

In sync with you there, Mega. I need a child-lock timer on all my Internet devices. One hour a day limit. I would get a lot more sleep.

It's 30 something C° outside and 25 C° in my flat. I'm drinking an espresso to get my ass in gear… Need to clean everything... Looking forward to the vacuumcleaner blowing warm air in my face...

Ah well: I have a bottle of Normandic cider cooling in the fridge... As my reward... Good boy!..

Don't send a moron to the grocery store for sausages and nice buns. You end up with cheese filled hot dogs and hot dog buns . Dishwashers these days

I've lost my IH-6526J. Not sure where or when, but it's lost now, I've even got my wife to look, so it's really lost      I loved that jacket probably more than any other IH piece. If only Giles had a XXL in Beige, I'd buy it again in a heart beat.

Thats shitty mate 

[grandmasterben]

Don't lose hope! I lost my IH-FW for over a month until I found it.

I'll have left it in a hotel somewhere, I do that a lot, I have a memory issue and I've lost 100s if not £1000's of pounds of shoes and clothes in hotels over the last few years, this one is probably the most painfull.

Which leads me to another rant: why doesn't anyone in the hotel trade return items left in rooms? I've Never had anything returned to me, ever from a hotel. My work colleges joke that someone follows me around the country living off the things I leave behind, kind of like a pikey Womble!

Do what you say you'll do, and don't do what you say you won't.

If you can't honor your own word, how can you expect anyone else to? You may as well be mute.

Worst business trip ever, and I've had my share. United runs late and seems to have no sense of urgency, was sat next to some punks with zero hygiene, literal eye-watering, gagging stench, connection missed, rental cars at my preferred vendor sold out, and I wind up getting to a hotel with parking way the fuck down the street (and 4 hours by car from where I need to be this morning) after midnight. Which means I'm up and about to hit the road at the crack of dawn.  And a convenient and timely bout of insomnia struck last night.

Today will be interesting. I don't know if they make coffee strong enough…

Good luck…..

Thank you!

Careful with driving

Thanks David.

This helped. Drive right past it. Don't worry I'm at a stoplight.
