Give a huge, big hug to uncle and auntie that i haven't seen for over 30 years!

Ditto nan that i haven't seen for 11 years and who has never seen my children.

Everything else can wait. :)

Agree with the drink but I will be on the white wine! And we will party with our friends. May even go on a holiday to Gold Coast before we do anything else.

May change once we get there but the drink won't!!

Can I have some jeans please! My old ones have finally ripped after 6 odd years. Best jeans I ever had - better than Levis or Wranglers. You can use that statement in an advert if you want - as long as I get some of the royalties. :D

anthonykirby May 21st 2003 1:23 pm

what you after - Brooklyn or Portland???

i can get some to you.

PM me with your details - ie address, style you want, colour, size and I will see what i can do.

Stonewash is your blue denim
Dark stonewash is a slightly darker blue denim
One wash is VERY blue (dark)

Let me know - will do you 2 pairs for £35 (inc post and packaging)

I will get them on my card - send a cheque to me.

Thanks Anthony, but on second thoughts buying jeans over the net is a risky one seeing as I'm choosy about styles etc. also most styles never seem to do my snakeskin boots any credit.
;)

Will get back to you if I change my mind. Better still, we'll probably be near Noosa sometime late 2004, so maybe we could do a deal then. :cool:
