Gerry looking into his phone with that facial expression just makes me wonder what it is that he is looking at...:puzzled:


I'm looking at the uproar over your picture ;)

Actually, my phone acts as the remote for my camera and I want the shot to look somewhat natural so I'm looking at the phone. I'll frown next time for some variety :D

Gerry, can we get a frontal shot of that elsewhere later (maybe noodles thread). I just want to see how it looks from the front re: closed quarters. Looks real nice though!


Thanks!

I'll try and get another shot this evening after work.

@heldentenor , those pants look incomparably better than the ones you've posted before. They might need a bit of work to help the drape (although they look like they might be cotton, so perhaps that's a hazard of the material), but the fit is way more flattering.

Thanks, @Siepi . They're wool flannel with a straight leg that's a bit too tight in the thigh (hence the lack of drape as they descend across the knee), but they're incredibly comfortable and, as you note, fit much better than about four/five pairs from recent posts that have since been ruthlessly culled until they can be rendered wearable. I'm temporarily down to about four pairs of trousers in regular rotation, so once the NPC club ends I'll be hitting NMWA up for some Rotas.

If there's anyone else out there who isn't sure about fit and reluctant to post, I'd highly recommend cycling through your wardrobe on here. Nothing gives you a more honest, uncompromising since of your clothes' fit and coherence than putting them up for all to see.
