Nah, North Korea do it

Perfect, thanks

I’ll give that a go, thanks, I have time

Mint, thanks

That’s a fantastic shout, I’ll get down there tomorrow

Heck yeah, that’s a brilliant site, thanks. I haven’t sailed the high seas in a long while, I don’t consume much media these days that’s not physical, so that’s a really good shout

Thing is, to get to the place that I’m visiting, I have 20+ hours of flying each way, and a months worth of reading in bed to do when I’m there. If I took enough books to keep me occupied, I’d need to pay for extra baggage

I scout them regularly, so that’s perfect, thanks

Make stuff. With your hands,stuff that will last when you walk away from it. I spent a lot of time doing admin/office work, and you can be productive as hell but have nothing to physically look at for your time. I took up woodwork, started doing more building work on my property, and every time I look at what I’ve made, it makes me feel more connected to my home, and more capable of dealing with these weird times we find ourselves in. Learn skills, try different things, round out your experience in life. Make stuff you think is beautiful, or that makes your life better in some way, it’s a great feeling

This is the way. I’m fitter, stronger, and look better in my mid 40s than I did for most of my 30s. I hurt less, I’m more capable, and I look at the future with a lot more interest and less trepidation.

You can preorder in the UK

The US just said that clean drinking water isn’t a right, so good luck with getting peace and quiet recognised as a right…

Almost all my furniture, lights and light fittings, a lot of my cooking stuff, my car, a lot of my tools, and even some of my clothes

So Amazon should be destroyed to train humans?

They look pretty good, there’s an ankle boot that looks about right, but unfortunately they don’t have them in my size at the moment. I’ll ask them when they’ll be back in stock

Nono, they’re wishing exceptionally large genitalia ion the captain. I’m pretty sure they know exactly what they said

I know what you mean, I’m just really after buy-it-for-more-than-just-one-year at this point. Tims definitely count as fast fashion from my recent experience. Danner look pretty good, and some of their boots are available over here so I’ll have a search for them, thanks

My hikers are Albert’s, and the have taken quite the beating, I just never really thought to look at their daily boots

I quote Vimes in this quite often!

They look pretty good, thanks
