English with some Irish from my father and English with some Scottish from my mother. My wife is german-italian-native american, so some intersting family history when we have kids.
Simply, Thursby is my real last name. Then just think back to the character that is mentioned several times but never is seen from the Maltede Falcon and there you have it. Also where my signature comes from.
Hi all, I am the floor Managing Supervisor for a small metal stripping place in Ohio, but origionally from jolly old England. Have been interested in vintage for a while now, starting to grow the wardrobe collection, and waiting patiently for my first Adventurebilt to arrive.
Well luckaly I have had no bad experiences so far, but I'm sure they will come. No bad smells or suspicious stains yet.
Talking of liquidating estates in England, not far from where I used to live there was a place that delt with that stuff. But it was an architectural place. So if you needed a...
Just wanted to see if any of you have had the similar fortune of picking up some steals at these places. This one that I went to was at the house of a deceased doctor, and it was being run be a contractor that my wife works with.
Long story short I picked up: one suit, one sports coat, six...
Well, let me say that there has been some very good adivce posted here, and i wanted to add my 2 cents.
Yep, been there, got my heart broken. After the latest, biggest one i decided that i needed something to take my mind off things. So i bought a car to restore. Gave me something else to...
Sifting through the net for vintage related stuff, and then ended up here via the retro radar website. Still so glad i spent the time instead of doing that work for my degree, hey i still graduated with honors and have an adventurebilt on the way!! :clap
I have to say, here in jolly old Ohio, i have never had a bad comment made about opening doos for others. Most of the women seem to be slightly surprised by this action but alway thank me and smile. As far as guys go some so thank you also, others nothing. But i'm sure the day will come when...
I watched this on the news this morning, and I'm glad the old fedora is getting some prime time, but unfortunately it was seen on the noggin of someone in the news for the wrong thing. Oh well.
I'n not an alcoholic, I'm a drunk. I don't go to meetings!!!
Either at home or out it has to be the Vodka Gimlet and occasionly when my wife and I are out the good old fashioned, and strong margarita. :cheers1:
Good stuff.
If only I had read this a week or so ago, then it would have been at the top of the list when people wnated to know what to get me for christmas.
Looks good though, I'll just have to get it for myself then!!
Cheers for the tip. :clap
Not that i NEED it, but......................
A couple of suits, jackets, coats, hats, shoes, my entire amazon wish list,
and maybe BOWFLEX!!!!!!!!:clap
I can always think of more, but as others stated nothing i need.
Simple yet effective
Vodka Gimmlet:
desired amount of vodka
add lime juice and wedge
i have no set amounts of either, but when making them for myself and the wife, her's always ends up the more green. :D
Bit of a stretch
If my hair is done right, i'm clean shaven and everything else is in my favour. Then at a stretch i think, and have been told one that i could be a young Cary Grant. Which i have no problem with.
Linked site........
I was bumming around google for some vintage stuff and followed the links at a site i cannot remember what it was.
Very happy i found it though, give me another excuse not to do my school work. Along with it being informative, funny and no unpleasant after-taste. :)
Got it....
Arrived today in perfect order. Very happy :) , will just have to work out what to christen it with. I think that it will be mostly holding tea, but for the first i think i'll make it a vodka gimlet. Can't wait to taste it.
Thank MK, nice job mate.
