Got called Denim Paddington Bear today, I'm not mad about it.

Freshly washed shirt and jeans, feels good man!

Double cosy on Christmas Eve.

Jersey Western over UHF.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

As requested by @ARNC a few weeks ago haha! Haven't left the house like this, but come the cooler months I might...

Day out in London and just meet a fellow IH fan in a bakery who complimented my get up. He'd just got back from Japan and visited the mills in Kojima. Was rocking some nicely faded Momotaros

Didn't ask if he was on the forum, but if you happen to see this.. thanks for the coffee!

A new IH tux has been assembled!

Love this lighter Hickory fabric so much, really airy and breathable. The pants saw me through the summer and no doubt this jacket will suit spring weather nicely.

Only to be worn together on special occasions though

@Denman-John Damn John, you've faded the hell outta that!

Love to see

@Matt I've never been disappointed with imported American fast food than when Taco Bell came to the UK...

There's been a few hits though! Popeyes is ok, and Dave's Hot Chicken has become my new favourite filthy treat...

@don_pipone good to know, my machine has the same setting..

Thanks for the info!

Can anyone comment on how the worsted wool used in Dehen cardigans/shawl sweaters handles delicate machine washing? Thinking of getting one for the winter but I don't really wanna have to hand wash it..

@WhiskeySandwich oh don't get me wrong, I share the same 'separate the art from the artist' mentality too...

I wasn't actively following the sport during his come up and prime, but of course he was always on my radar as a sportsman and cult figure.

There was a part of me that hoped he'd pull of a miracle yesterday so could I could experience a fraction of the hype I'm sure you guys felt back in his heyday with the potential of them building towards a fight with Islam, but after what happened, I think fans are just gonna have move on from the idea of what they hoped he could be again.

I hope he manages to find peace, stay sober and gracefully move into whatever chapter comes next in life for him.

@jordanscollected said in UFC:

Please McGregor just go away forever. Maybe a boxing match with Jake Paul as a farewell.

I think Paul would accept an MMA fight on MVP after last nights 'performance'.

I struggle to find sympathy for the guy given his past indiscresisons, but from an objective standpoint the whole thing is like a greek tragedy...

Hubris, greed and ego kept him in the game longer than the body he continuously abused could handle, and now the only big payday he can hope for as a 'sportsman' is being served up as a sacrificial lamb for somebody that would have once been considered so many leagues below him.

I have no doubt he'll continue to make millions, but I don't think it will offset the cost that this setback will have had on his soul...

Well, shit.

@jordanscollected agreed, and I think the Paddy/Ilia fight will be undeniable if Paddy wins! Genuine beef there, but I fear for Ilia's sanity if Paddy somehow pulls off the upset...

@Nick looks likes it gonna happen, we have Mauricio Ruddy as a back up though..

The whole card is stacked, but I'm looking forward to Paddy/BSD the most. Such a difficult fight to call, but I have Paddy by decision.

Thoroughly enjoyed the whole card.

I wanna see Ilia face the winner of Paddy/BSD before a rematch is considered. Ruffy can have the loser as it'd still be a step up for him (and potentially an opportunity avenge to avenge his loss to St Denis).

Arman should face Gaethje at the start of next year if he doesn't retire. Can only ignore the rightful number one contender for so long without it becoming a farce...
