@WhiskeySandwich The heat, and the rain both surprised us in equal measures!

You are a loud bunch mind, one would think you were all deaf or something

@Oaktavia Ha ha! Imagine if it had been a negative post, what a can of worms I'd be opening

@Matt Yes! That one!

I have just returned from family holiday in Florida, something we have looked forward to for years, we had a great time!

It's the first time I have been to the US as an adult and the kids loved it, they spent half the first day giggling at the fact that people do actually talk like they do on American TV programs Not sure if they thought the accent was just an act or something!!

I'd like to say what a pleasure it was to be around American people. Genuinely surprised at how polite and friendly people are. Particularly if someone accidentally stands in your way for example, and restaurant guests leaving as you enter "enjoy your meal". Small things, but something we see less and less of in the UK. Americans still seem to have a good grip on what is right and wrong and how to treat people.

Being from the UK, we typically holiday in Europe, and for me at least, European countries always feel a bit like alien land. However much I might like the people, they don't feel like "our people". Totally different feeling in America, they are clearly our people. We are the same.

I think the "Special relationship" is something to be proud of and hopefully treasured by us both in the future.

Can't wait to go back. God bless America!

@Brian no it’s a 2.0 Ford duratec with uprated internals and also supercharged

My bit of fun! A Caterham 620. Running 355bhp, weighs 600kg, 0-60 in 2.7seconds. But to be honest it’s all about the cornering speed!

Oh my lord.

Just received the indigo version while on holiday in Florida (from the UK). Mailed to the hotel and I have to say this CPO is amazing and quite probably my best iron heart piece. As soon as I’m out of this Florida heat and back in the UK I’ll be wearing the hell out of this.

If anyone isn’t following him, give “Ben wears heritage” a follow on Instagram. He has just received one of my Natural/Russet Oak Bark Tanned Lifetime belts and will be documenting the patina journey!

@1WayTrip good to hear

@Alex ah! Yes! I think that is the one. I am on a rare visit to the US right now, so I might pick one up!!

Not sure if there is a thread for it on the forum but has anyone been hands on with the self edge x iron heart 19oz CPO? Looks like SE currently have all sizes in stock

@guiltyparty Best photo of this shirt so far, that looks awesome!

Snatched this, the denim CPO which dropped the same time sold out in minutes! Still lots of this one left as I type. I was so torn between the two and would have had both if the bank manager had allowed

@Oaktavia They look amazing! Thanks for sharing.

@catdad1 Awesome! That is another point for me though, I don't actually own a denim shirt which will fade yet I have 2 UHF, 1 9oz Flannel, 1 x Hickory stripe and the johnny cash, which If i remember rightly is non-fade.. Hmmm. I think I am pretty much won over with this one though!

@teamcarraig Yeah, such a hard choice, leaning towards this canvas one... It just means I'll have to get a denim CPO in the future too

@CosmoSix5 Yep, I do have ome duck canvas trousers so I see what you mean, leaning towards this one!

Such a versatile piece. A CPO is next on my wants list. I'd probably wear this more than a denim one but not sure whether to sacrifice the fades for it!!!

Does my head in that this says coming soon on the site, but its 2027, want it SO BAD!!
