    I think it was all earlier the talk of horse urine that took me on this tangent. Yhen I remembered hearing that the president likes to use plenty of Russian horse urine on his textiles. Or did I mishear that?

    It's a brilliant Powell and Pressburger movie from 1943 with Roger Livesey. Very prescient and nice jackets too. Leather jackets are intrinsically political of course. Even the Draft Dodger in Chief wears a military jacket with no trace of irony when it suits. But then I'm a snowflake.

    You're not wrong there Tony. Watching in horror from the UK where we're about to choose a fascist clown too. Or did you mean the weather? LOL but weeping inwardly

    AERO 30's Half Belt MIDNIGHT BLUE cxl HH New Batch.

    Love the new batch and stunning half belt. My older batch midnight J106 is developing nicely. So hard to capture the colour on camera. Especially on a dark Scottish evening

    Good luck. They do say size down with a Highwayman as it's a boxy design. I wear a size 42 in the Aero sheene/Cafe racer. My Sheene is 23 p2p, 25.5 both arms and back, 19.5 shoulders.
