Wild boars were the worst thing where I'm from and we would actively look for them since their kids are so cute...to BBQ.

FTFY

Yes, they're very chilled out spiders. We only destroyed them because of the young kids in the house. Still, there are a few thousand bites a year in NSW, generally when you stick your hand in the web without looking.
I think the Nevada equivalent are scorpions?

I don't think I ever saw a scorpion in or around my house in LV, but I had friends who lived on the edge of the desert who did. Strangely, I associate scorpions more with Far Side comics than with anything else.
I too opt for my hemp t-shirt on the hottest days.
Steve Calder. He recently had a brown half-lined jacket made in the fabric I am looking at.
I'm fan of Onno hemp t-shirts.

The one I have is Braintree Hemp. The fit is kinda weird but it's a loose fit and drapes really well.

Do you know if Onno will reply with measurements if I email them? I've tried that with Jungmaven but they have never replied to any emails or messages about the fit.

I wish to purchase a suit from SuitSupply.

1. How can I purchase an extra pair of trousers?
2. How do I know what size pants come with the suits?
3. I wear a size 42. What size would I be in whatever sizes SuitSupply has?

Regards

Edit: ignore my crap, I've found the separates per @ryanohare's post below. :blush:

As far as I know, they don't sell separates so you can't get an extra pair of trousers with an OTR purchase. If you go MTM, there's an option to add a second pair of trousers.

Can't help with the other two questions unfortunately, and I'll be ecstatic if someone tells me that I am wrong about question 1. :D

Firstly, there's an affiliate SS thread on here with an active SS employee who answers questions like these on a daily basis. He's terrific, so fire them in that thread and you'll get better responses than the ones I'll attempt to give below.

1. Easily done I think. They do separates, so just double up on the pants.
2. The site tells you.
3. Same. Depends on the model though - again the site will tell you which fit is tightest to loosest. That said, from plentiful experience - there's little change in the pants irrespective of the model - and they're all fairly tight fitting. The Napoli (I think) has the loosest fitting pants if that's what you're after. Their service and returns policies are excellent though.

Ditto, ordered Recently and returned within minutes after seeing the colour.
Hoping it gets there and money is refunded etc.... but so far has been very easy

Not sure if they'd be able to let you know the measurements. I have a few shirts from them, and ones from different orders fit differently.

Hi all,

I will be back in Aus with my family for 3 weeks in late Jan/early Feb. We will be mostly in my home town of Brisbane and its surrounds. We have been back once a year for the past few years so we are relatively up to date but are of course open to suggestions from the locals (@Journeyman ?) so we don't overlook anything.

We will also be doing a weekend in Melbourne without the bubba. It will be my first time there in the better part of 8 or so years and my Swiss wife's first time. Another couple will be joining us from Sydney. I am very open to recommendations. We are staying on Flinders Lane for convenience more than anything. Has anyone done one of the walking tours? Are they worth it? Is Chin Chin still worth a shout for one of our meals? Where else? (One of our friends from Sydney is particularly keen for Italian one night.) How about a good bar or two? What about coffee? I really miss my flat whites here in Zurich. My wife isn't a big shopping fan and even less so watching me shop so if I only check out a couple of shops which ones? I think someone mentioned a Cuccinelli outlet, is it worth it? Is it located where there are other things to see and do?

Many thanks, gents - much appreciated.

NJR
