It's been a while. Decided to celebrate my 10th anniversary of wearing IH with my most recent purchase... Savanna horshide brown leather, big thanks to Graham and crew for this one, you guys know what you did to help me out, so I feel blessed.
Also wearing my first IH purchase from 2015, my 21oz 555 with a lot of miles and repairs on them, but so soft.
Happy 2024 all. Really needing it to be better than 2023. Hope the old guard are all good, and hello to the new converts. Peace all
@Giles thank you. I'm still repping IH everyday, never a day without one piece or another making a showing. 2023 was not the greatest, but what doesn't kill us, yadayada..
@Giles that must have been traumatic for you 
hope you and Paula are doing well, and the fishing has been good. Been quite a testing couple off years, but hopefully coming through the worst of it. At least I'll look good doing it in this incredible IH leather
@Graham thank you for going through all the measurements with me and finding this perfect fit…I can't wait to wear it...fit pic photos taken in 28 degree c heat...not ideal!
@Graham the IH weather Gods answered my rain dance 
18 degrees and showers here today. Perfect day for my new jacket…oh, and it fits perfect, got a shopping bag pulling on my left shoulder, making the fit look tighter than it is
A beautiful jacket. This is my xxl khaki
Upgraded my system this week… Rega Apollo CD player and Rega DAC R. The combination sounds incredible, the DAC really tightens the low end up. Sounds like a live performance in my living room. Saving for a Rega Brio R integrated amp next. 99% of their materials are sourced from the UK, and the casing, transformers, and other components are manufactured and built 5 miles from my home.
Rarely snows before January here in Essex. 51 and a UHF holding up nicely.
In lieu of there not being a separate 'hifi' section in hobbies…if you enjoy hifi, low, mid, or hi end..I'll start:
Rega planar 6 turntable
Trichord dion Phono amp
Cyrus se6 CD player
Cyrus se6 amplifier
Rega speakers
Mid level but just fine for the room
@jimcasey brilliant pic, timeless. Could have been taken today, or 1962.perfect!
