It is, I don’t feel comfortable calling someone by their first name unless I’m invited to do so. English is not my first language by any means, so I’m not 100% sure how it actually works. Beside, I’m used to that when I served.
No, I thought I was a shop mate when you were talking so I was confused why Basil didn’t want to do it, so makes sense now.

Alright boiz

Plenty of updates re: Islays Bakers RC GMTO’s, but let’s begin with the mock up photos.

This is a mock up, I repeat this is just a mock up photos.

26E2A307-1CE3-49D6-9980-E60C9DC20029.jpeg

Not the best I’m aware, I took it off the Radnor runs. I did tried using my own photos of my Carminas but it turned out rather ugly. I’ve moved to different rooms and there’s just no good light anywhere in my house. No fookin suns on these forsaken land!

I promise you it won’t look that burgundy.

Now for the updates.

Mrs. Searle spoke to Mr. Jones (MD) after that event and she managed to get a way through to us for a green light with just 8 participants! And the GMTO price would still be honour. All props to her ??

I’m thinking of maybe Ant. Copper for the hardwares configurations or perhaps Ant. Brass than metal.

Also we are going with double Ridgeways.

Those who are interested earlier could you please double confirm your status or if you want to drop:

@stephenaf2003
@Coolhand0302
@SteveL91

Other 4 guys are on Reddit, I’ll create a commitment post later there. With me we are 8 man strong (well, if they don’t drop).

Hi @Soixante , first thank you for the audacity to request this boot that is obviously destined for entry in the hall of fame. Second, thanks for carrying the water and bringing this GMTO home. There is no chance I would miss getting in on this boot; I’m really looking forward to adding it to my shoe room.

Man.. I truly appreciate the kind words, it’s 7 degrees here- I can’t sweat I’m crying :’)

Well we are 3 man now. How about hardwares config? You fine with Ant. Brass or Ant. Copper or you have other things in mind?

Hey! I have yet to make that, but perhaps not because, I, myself do not like my informations opened as a free access. Should we all set, I might just ask the participants to dm their E-Mails and size and I’ll have it send to Searle.

I’m still waiting for my mock up photos to finish for you all to have a better visuals.

Pretty sure we only kept user names on the sheet and it was just a way to track ongoing MTOs and what the specs on them were.

It's mostly for factory MTO, but I want to say that I have seen a few that were through a C&J store, though I won't swear to it.
Pretty sure all of the MTOs we've done so far were all done through the stores. Don't think anyone had direct interaction with the factory.

I’m easy I’ll go along with whatever the group decides.
