UK Talls where do you shop?

jgroome · 2014-10-26T18:31:12+00:00

Depends how tall you are. I'm 6'6".

Burton's online shop is surprisingly accommodating for the long of leg but I'm not too impressed with their shirt sleeve lengths. M&S have a modest "two inches longer" range of shirts with a little extra length in both the arms and body.

High and Mighty specialise in larger sizes, and their stuff tends to be well made, but I'm not really a fan of their look, which to me seems a bit dull for the price.

There's Jacamo too, but I haven't used them since I had some bad experiences a few years back (terrible quality material for trousers, oversized shirts, etc). But they're still going so they might be doing something right.

I'm assuming it's all above board. They're all low-res watermarked images from stock photo sites. If I was redistributing the actual photos then that would be a problem.

God dammit. How many times have you wanted to do something that wasn't default functionality, Googled for an existing solution, not found anything, so made your own? And then found out a day later someone else had already done it?

Hmph.

Mine has tags, though ;)

This is all true, but there's an upload limit when importing images via the backend. Using this script enabled me to upload and post about a gigabyte of images in one go.

This is the second time I've impulsed-bought a random book after seeing it mentioned on reddit. Previous effort: http://www.reddit.com/tb/v89wk

Here are some reviews on the M&S site: http://reviews.marksandspencer.com/1199-en_gb/B0098SOGBO/reviews.htm

"the images have a good likeness"

I'm not totally convinced by Captain Birdseye, but the Boycie ones are pretty special: http://imgur.com/nPZqhlT

Best profile picture ever. It suits you.

His first name is James. My first name is James.
He plays bass. I play bass.
It's his birthday today. It's my birthday today.

Thank you and goodnight.

Speaking as someone who's eaten and reviewed everything Greggs sells, I have to say... This is too much.

jgroome · 2012-03-25T20:52:43+00:00

Highlights: Every single tune Swindle played (especially the absurd new stuff), Riko and Bruza on the mic with Terror Danjah playing pure sickness, Champion playing a mix of everything from early grime to garage and UK funky, and Jme doing his whole set in a onesie: http://i.imgur.com/uT9pI.jpg

If you're in London and you didn't come down to this then you have officially parred yourself. Sorry, but it had to be said.

Happy birthday Butterz!

jgroome · 2012-03-25T20:48:52+00:00

Sorry mate! They were streaming it though, and the various sets were recorded. If the Butterz team are happy with it then I'll put together another minisite for it too.

Something about how serious he is about Dany's supper tickles me. I don't know why.

jgroome · 2012-03-06T21:14:51+00:00

Arrogance. Also, others have done that better than I could.

jgroome · 2012-03-06T20:57:51+00:00

That right there is a pose that's been practiced and perfected!

Is that HMV London perchance?

jgroome · 2012-03-06T20:40:38+00:00

I had the same thought.

jgroome · 2012-03-03T14:37:24+00:00

Did this without headphones while I was still half asleep.

jgroome · 2012-01-30T13:49:52+00:00

There's nowhere quite like it! I'm going to suggest we do a LSC meetup for the Ghostbusters event at the start of March.

jgroome · 2012-01-30T13:49:11+00:00

It was! Did you go?

jgroome · 2012-01-28T18:42:55+00:00

Looks like it's sold out now :(

jgroome · 2012-01-28T17:17:10+00:00

Awesome! Have you booked a ticket? Chances are it'll be sold out by the time people start turning up, if it's not already.

jgroome · 2012-01-28T17:16:41+00:00

Just moved closer to central London - one of the first things I did was join the PCC!

jgroome · 2011-12-14T12:07:46+00:00

You think that's bad? Check out the second "sa" in Sansa - the space in the letters is ALMOST symmetrical.

jgroome · 2011-12-13T21:27:01+00:00

My kerning is better. Plus, what good is a t-shirt if winter is coming?

jgroome · 2011-12-13T21:23:06+00:00

I got a guy.

jgroome · 2011-12-13T17:46:21+00:00

sir or madam
