    Are fig newtons like fig rolls but only different branding?

    Yes. I still call them fig newtons, even though mine are from Lidl. I think they must be in that tin next to the food mixer.

    Food mixer? Ooooh, aren't you posh. The locals round this way still use buckets and sticks.

    Freebie. Wife got it from her granny.

    I'm from Wales, couldn't even afford sticks back then.

    They have one stick. They share it between all of them. How to use it has to be explained each time it goes to a different house.

    Most definitely. Goes without saying really.

    TDLO doesn't have a mousetache, which is nice.

    Is that your job? I thought you were an Army Medic?

    Good call on the H4H merino socks by the way. Just ordered two pairs

    I sideline in speaking slowly, yet loudly, to people in small words.

    Whose stick is this branch? You know the score......

    Liar.

    All I need now is a Beret, some faux tartan trews and some trainers from Mammoet.

    12.99 for two pairs. Hiking socks. Didn't have those colours though :cry:

    Who's shoes are those boots?

    Now that's a deal. I haven't been able to find any in normal sizes in the trad hFH colors for months - only midget/hobbit feet sizes.

    They should bring them up all up here - they'd make a fortune. Then again, I'd have to get another sideline going explaining to people that they aren't gloves. Or hats.

    Who's jacket is this coat?

    Not these?:

    [like the web name BTW: www.dandyfellow.com]

    Only £390. Bargain if you couple them with a triple pack of Castelli summer socks from a well known online cycling outlet who deliver quickly.

    Oh f*ck, this thread has gone mammaries up or 'base over apex' (just in case there are any female viewers).

    'Mr Men'?! Think about it.
