What a great Melbourne morning to discover a hole in the sole of my black Hallams... I guess I'm off to Rekaris tomorrow.

Also, I'd be in for the swap box.
Okay, I think it's time we had a long and frank discussion about the pros and cons of Topy'ing your shoes...

Kidding.

I recently Topy'ed all of my shoes--I went from 0% Topy to 100% Topy. Fully expecting the apocalypse any time now.

Gents how are we? In the market for a slim fitting sport coat (I'm 186cm/~65kg), how does Zara go, thinking about having a browse.

Any other recommendations?

In general soap just makes water more watery. And lets it soak in and remove dirt. Too much soap just defeats the purpose and can (will) grease up the water. Most detergent manufacturers recommend you use too much soap in wash machines - they would wouldn't they - that why theres a grease build up in machines. As a general tip use half recommended dose in a machine.


Just before we got our new F&P washing machine we had a technician in to see if the old one was economically viable to fix, sadly no, **** built in obsolesce. He mentioned to avoid grease build up you should just drop in dishwashing tablet once every six to eight weeks and let it go through a normal cycle. He recommend normal dishwashing tablets not the ones with the ball.

Mind you my dishwasher would like a dishwasher, bought her some Aesop Hand Creme instead.

I can't fathom you. How can you be 10kg lighter than me and two inches taller?! You must have the bones of a bird! Astonishing.
