Febuary Meet

are we going to have one?

the boards have been too quiet recently and im missing you lot

 

May not appeal to every one because I was pretty much thinking about those of us going to LA. I was thinking of a costuming meet up at my place. Those of us working on the orange, we could order our overalls and spend a day converting them, have a few drinks, a laugh... any one who wants to come a long and do a bit of sewing, hang out is more than welcome.

I'll get my coat..

 

I like this idea, but then, I'm biased

However, would be a good, relaxed meet, and people could bring any costume they are currently working on, not just those of us trying to do the orange.

 

yeah, I didnt put that across very well.

I dont mind doing the ordering

I was going for Dickies - WD4869 -R - Proban Boilersuit Coverall (32" Leg Length) WD4869 .

If you want me to order one, PM me your size. I will order one extra to cut up and we can look at payment when we get together.?

I am limited on weekends tho. I am Booked 3/4 feb and 24/25 that leaves

10/11 or 17/18

 

that sounds gd!!

the 17/18 would be best for me if im allowed to go.

and the idea of ordering the suits is a gd one....if we want one when do you want size by at the lastest??

 

My only problem with the boiler suit you've chosen is that it is a stud front, and I'm worried that even on the 54" chest (that I'll have to get), the studs may not stay closed properly.

 

well I went for that one because its only £17 plus P&P. I can think of 2 solutions

1- Let me know the code of one you would prefer
2- We can sew velcro down the opening.


Orders under £50 are £7 P&P, over £4 .

Says they despatch within 3 days.

I would say to be safe have orders into me for the start of feb.

Does any one know what the hell is happening to the chest box order over on the RL site? Seems only admin can post anywhere on that forum now?

 

i havent a clue. i have given my money to chris and i presume the order has been sent

 

Is Mark still interested in Orange?

 

Not sure V, I know he's doing the white stuff at the moment.

Oh, and 17/18 is a good weekend for me.

 

right, thats the wkend then.


So Far I have orders for me & Phil. I'll be ordering next week.

 

Hey, gang. I'll come up! At the moment, I'm dropping the Orange and going for the "White Stuff"...hey, where else can I use a comment like that!

I would have loved to have both, but I don't think it's possible to have the two on the go at the same time at the present moment, and I've always wanted to do a Stormie...plus the fact I can't sew for ****, meaning the TK is a more viable option for me right now.

I think I might give Ben a tinkle and see if I can drop down and pick the armour off him. I can bring it with me and do the straps, etc...

 

thats cool.

I dont like to have more than one project on the go either, it makes my head hurt.

 

Is this gonna be an overnighter, or just a single day?

 

Is there going to be Chilli involved?

Not to mention, it burns a hole in your pocket!

 

we can make it an over nighter if you want, and there can be chilli..

 

doesnt look like im going to be able to get to this meet

is there any chance you could save some of the scrap jumpsuit for me? so that i can do it at a later date.

 

ok. any scraps will go into my scrap fabric box

 

Right I am ordering the suits today.

So far for the meet up there are

me
Phill
Mark
Tika?

 

Yep, that looks about it!

It'll be cool, anyway!

 

I don't think that there's any need of making a list as it's always just us 4.

 

Well I ordered 3 suits back end of last week, they still havent turned up! Delivery is stated as 5 working days which means they should have come today, so far Nige has not txt me to say they have arrived. Its up to you guys. We can still have a get together at mine, some of the medieval guys are coming round to make medieval kit but if you no longer fancy it thats fine. Of course the delivery may come friday......

 

Sounds like fun.

 

still no suits......

Ive said arrival sat from 1pm onwards, I want a lie in !

 

Phil!

The orange has arrived!

Can you bring the diagram of pockets etc over. I wont get chance to print them before I leave work
