First up my dream jacket. One True Saxon Jungle Marsh Parka in brown. Don't care that OTS is now defunct after selling out to the man, this is classic OTS gear when it was at it's finest. Seen these come and go on eBay and I've never managed to land one. Managed to snare this one for under a score (then a bit postage). Quality colourway for upcoming autumn and has some smart features, including more pockets than a kebab shop sized pack of pitta breads, and a basic watch viewer (A short zip on each sleeve, not in same league as CP windows mind). Pleased as punch.
Next having sold a couple of Ralph shirts due to poor sizing, felt I'd left myself open to exposure on the shirting front. Was after a gingham tuktuk in summer sale but missed out on the email informing me on increased reduction, so by the time I'd logged on at tea time all the fat bastard sizes had gone. So picked up a couple of Wolsey's for the price of a pint each, again from eBay. Two nice designs with nice detailing on buttons.
Final bit of clobber in this post is yet another Ralph polo (yawn). Again as per from TKM, my usual haunt for RL polo shirts. A baby yellow with green horse, feel very Brazilian in it despite the fact I haven't shaved. In the clearance for £18, not going to say no to that are you?
Next up some bedtime/bogtime reading. Got issue #11 of Proper a couple of months ago, fairly late in the day for how long it's been out. Just hadn't got round to getting it. The plus side of that move was I didn't have to wait long for number 12. And just the other day an eagerly anticipated Stand Against Modern Football plopped through the letterbox.
Finally a daft little piece. A good few years ago Football Focus did a feature weekly on every clubs top cult heroes - voted for by the fans. This is the book that goes with it. Found in poundland of all places, although I can't remember how much I paid...
