Yep Armchaired...I'm falling apart Sir, tho haven't had a cold in an age so feeling very cheap...and that tooth's ongoing still....I'm to see a specialist as my dentist, she don't wanna know....probably cos she knows she made a cack handed effort of it originally...
How's the "giving up the oilie"s going with thou?
Meanwhile - on the kecks front...I could do worse than these?!?

Bummer Arm. I've also had a problem with my front tooth the last few days. Sensitive to everything. Cold, heat, any kind of pressure. Never had any probs with my gnashers before so I'm worried about what the dentist has to say. I'm switching to that Sensidyne stuff I think and hopefully that sorts me out. The biggest worry is that dentist bills will eat away at my clothes budget. Disaster!
Today, in the house. No cold... but bloody cold.
White US made FotL chest pocket t shirt with navy Uniqlo (unbuttoned) cardigan over it .
Levi's white denim 506- tapered to a 7" hem.
Ecru Ragg socks.
Scholl Continental driving shoes, which I wear aboot the hoose.
Pants are blue primark efforts, fresh on this week.

I've been hitting the gym in recent weeks again too....probably where I caught this cold?!?!? will probably try and sweat it back out down there again...
It took me 3 goes to stop the ciggies but it's been about 15 years off em now so keep it going fella!
I'm surrounded by a few younger guys here who aren't too badly turned out tbh, but they're more into their designer labels I think... I do impart some valuable knowledge on em but it's probably wasted...
Classic white T from primark of all places
JSA blue Uni stipe
Uniqlo - light grey lambs wool crew neck
light tan Lee Brooklyn 5-pockets
Nondescript desert boots
Buzz Rickson USN hook jacket
Eastman USN watch cap
MWC Vietnam pattern watch on navy strap
Split lip, black eye
I have a load of white t shirts from primark too. They are actually the best around just now I think. I used to buy from Gap but they yellow up too fast for the money you spend. Primark stay white for a good few washes and only cost £5 for a pack of 2.
BTW, the FC that sounds like a good look. The black eye and split lip make it. Ha.

Today I am mostly going for the rugged Geography teacher look....
So from thee outside in:
Right - I am too a fan of the Keydge cord and have a couple from last year's batch, but my old dark tan Brooks cord number with leather buttons outsmarts them I think...OK, so it's fully lined, but hey, it's otherwise thee exact same style...AND footie buttons kids..footie buttons!!
I then proceeded to find an old pair of Baracuta navy chinos in the back of my wardrobe so taking the simple mathematical formula of:
X x Logorhythm of SCHEEEEEET, I can still do these babies up.... = Square Root of I'm gonna wear these today but mental note to self...just a lettuce lunch for you Captain and not too much bending etc. - I continued on my merry way...
A BB pale blue Makers follows, an "A Christensen" navy/brown white stripe knitted tie, a john Smedley, even darker tan than said jacket, waistcoat cardy, an old vintage tie clip, Antique Brown US Sebago pennies, same MWC 70s with nato strap as yesterday...and of course...we can take the basque underneath as read....
Still packing the Kleenex but I had a big mug of boiling water last night with some Tullamore Dew and honey in it - so no more snotty today....HURRAH!
Just off on a long trek for two days of business meetings.
Shirts, suits,shoes & ties all packed

Topped off with a stetson waxed newsboy..
I have an international, I just removed the visible logos. They un pick eithout leaving any sign they were there. I need to send mine in for a couple of small repairs but as with yours mine gets a lot of wear when it's grim out.
That's good to know 12 Bar...I really do need an alternative and to go easier on this...I was gonna toy with a Lewis Leathers one but they're quite large around the cuff for me..and a lot more expensive too! Have you got the A7 Brass wax job? They seem to do loadsa varieties now...?
