@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

@jimcasey brilliant pic, timeless. Could have been taken today, or 1962.perfect!

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.

@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..

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

Hmm an age old, impossible question.

They all get weekly play on CD, and I haven't got bored yet. Been listening to all of them since years of release.

Not posted in an age. Hope all you good folks are sound.

Rarely snows before January here in Essex. 51 and a UHF holding up nicely.

@Madame Buttonfly thank you for your kind words. Life isn't an easy road, and there's been a lot of heartache along the way.

I'm not living on Kirsty's boat, god no! I just stay over a couple of nights a week. She is hardcore though, a very strong woman. I'm a lucky man. Thankfully things with Sarah, my wife came to an amicable end and we're still best of friends.

It's pros and cons, and the pros outweigh the cons. It's moored on a beautiful river with only a few other boats for miles around. It has diesel powered central heating, log burner, full sized kitchen and bathroom with power shower, washing machine etc. It was a real eye-opener to me. It's like a small apartment.

@Giles:

Congrats, I think 

Thanks @Giles I am very lucky. Everything with my soon to be ex is incredibly amicable. She knows about my new partner, she is happy for me. We just grew in different directions. Lots of challenges lay ahead.

My girlfriend lives on a narrow boat, and we've been doing work on it. IH has very much come into its own during this recent cold snap!

Been a while since I've posted. Big changes. Divorce underway after 10 yrs of very happy marriage, but now incredibly happy to be in a nurturing relationship with the woman I fell head over heels for 14 years ago. Life throws us some strange curve balls.

@neph93 so taking a lump hammer to each panel of glass isn't considered an appropriate way to separate the composite parts I take it 

Saw Pavement recently. I was decidedly dissapointed by a band whose music I've bought since1991. Hey ho

IH CAP, IH68J, Converge band tee, 555 21oz, J1 reverse bred… and the chip off the old block, our son

Finally tracked down an IH card holder at Rivet and Hide. A nice alternative to my Flat Head bifold

Feeling autumnal like many folks here. Some beautiful colours in the foliage matched perfectly by IH

Ooh, oh yes. Full grain leather Superstar 82s. You're talking. Have you seen the Rose Anvil YouTube channel? He cuts shoes and boots in half and reviews them. Not a bad thing to say about Superstars!

@neph93 I've bought red/black, yellow/black, and blue/black Jordan 1s purely to pair with the colourways of my favourite UHFs. Help me, I beg you, before it escalates even more out of control
