What jacket(s) are you wearing at the moment?

[Pa12]

I lost both my parents when I was relatively young. It knocked me around a hell of a lot more than I realised at the time.

Time heals. Also remember that you're half your Mum and your Dad so they're always with you.

This time of year is always a little tough but dwell on the fantastic memories you have and raise a glass to them on Christmas Day.

Yes . The dates make things rough. I was in the middle of a very nasty divorce when my folks went. As a result, my son became estranged and I’ve had no contact since 09. So Christmas, birthdays, fathers and Mother’s Day , I try to stay real busy until they pass. Sorry for all the gloom. But as lesson, you can get past most anything in time.

That's the nature of life. It pays no respect to holidays and such like.

I used to have a real hard time with Christmas because Mum and Dad weren't around. Now I just think that it's a time to celebrate all our family who are here and also those who aren't.

Golden words, Tim. They are with us forever.
I often think about this after I lost my mother last spring, my father left earlier.

I just acquired this Golden bear varsity today. It's in mint condition. Found it on marketplace.

Terrific find, enjoy!

I believe it to be WWII issue, but not 100%.

Regardless, very large and old pea coat.

More pictures when it’s not so dark.

Never buy a dog when you're drunk!

Sporting the B-10, sunny but damn frisky outside.

Damn. That’s the second biggest dog I’ve ever seen. You could probably ride it.

Hello,

Running errands in a cold but very sunny morning, in preparation for tomorrow's christmas supper.

Jacket and sweater are old Real Mccoy, D-1 & A-1 Mechanic wool sweater + MASH A-10 gloves. A cool combo that I appreciate for its quality, look and Original feel.

I live in the mountainous north. It's stunningly beautiful but not for the faint of heart over winter

A very handsome and interesting B-10. What kind of lining has it? Who made it? I think your hund needs to see a chiropodist. Not sayin', just sayin'.
