Those last two coats are awesome! What stores/brands?
I dunno, I just googled some images of similar jackets that I own.

Just search for "Brown hooded Leather Jacket" and "Grey woollen Trench Coat" respectively, they're fairly established designs, they'll all be much of a muchness!

My trench coat was from GAP, and my hooded leather jacket was from River Island, around £100 each. The members only jacket was from the Internet, £70 as I seem to remember.

Cheers, I'll have a nosey online at some point, hopefully there's a while before winter arrives!
Btw, how are GAP for clothes? I've never actually shopped there, especially as a kid, because GAP stands for 'gay and proud' don't you know?

I am best with stories and poetry so will probably try and do something with that. I stopped for a while after a death in the family. It was the first one I had to deal with and it kind of threw me, I rarely know how to deal with normal everyday things so I certainly didn't know how I was supposed to deal with that but slowly starting to get back into it now!

I'm really sorry to ear about your loss. I haven't lost anybody from my family as of yet, at least not someone I know and/or are close to. The only person I've lost in life who I was close to was my ex's nan and that hit me really hard and still does now. Slightly different but glad to hear you're managing better now. Do you have any stories or poems you could share with us? Again, no offense taken if not :)

You'll have to narrow it down.

I assume you mean a long winter coat? Or are you after a more versatile jacket?

I have this in dark blue:



Really nice fit and surprisingly warm.

Or you can never go wrong with a leather jacket:



Very versatile, goes with almost anything.

Or maybe a smarter winter coat:



Looks cool with a nice sweater and jeans.

It's hard to say without knowing what you style preferences are though!


Edit: welcome N7commander!

Replying on phone, sorry for shit formatting. Having never really owned a cost I'm not entirely sure, it will be what I wear all day at work even when in the office, but I did like that trench coat, just not sure it would suit me.

Excellent. Kind of basic, design wise, but very well made.

And I'm secure enough in my sexuality to rock proudly gay clothes LOM!

I regret buying those pink hot pants though. They only really work with my tight glittery Fame tee.

That's good because I don't think I'm secure enough in your sexuality. :p

In that case I'll check them out!
It's crazy the things you will/won't do as a kid for the most stupid of reasons. Shopping in Netto, Lidl and Aldi was a big no no too round these parts. Can't be seen to be buying cheaper food can we?!

I was shocked when I discovered the owner of Lidl & owners of Aldi are on rich lists and quite high up too. Those supermarkets sure make some £££ which does make you wonder what exactly is in their products for them to be so damn cheap and still profitable.

Hey man,

I know I'm just a random person on the internet, but know that if you ever need someone to proofread or just look over a piece of writing/poetry, my inbox is always open. As someone who has lost someone close to me at a relatively young age, I know how isolating and lonely it can feel at times. If you ever feel down or just need someone to talk to, I'm here.

In other news, I have successfully moved into my new student accomo, having spent the first few days in London in my brother's flat. Now time to do a bit of shopping on amazon and experience the full breadth of e-commerce in a first world country. HOORAY

Dude, we talked about this. You're a married man, you need to suppress your desires.

But you know I find you a very attractive man. And if things were different, I'm sure we could make each other so happy.

It just can't be my handsome beast, I'm sorry.

Am staying in a London hostel on Saturday. First time in a hostel that wasn't completely booked out by one group.

Should I fall asleep with my rucksack secured tightly to my limbs?

Also eagerly awaiting the Digital Foundry GTAV comparison at 3pm so I can decide once and for all what version to get. Not seeing the girlfriend for two weeks so my evenings are freeeeeee aside from some piano.

edit - apparently make that 11am tomorrow. Balls.

Hey BritGaf. New here and up late because of Breaking Bad. Have lived in rural Northern Ireland for 20 years, and moving to the 'mainland' for university in Manchester. Very excited to go to a place with a proper nightlife.
Party with GreenScar (RIP) and Cheezmoooo

even I am shocked at how accurate I was...

Well duh, the PC version will be bought for £5 in a Steam sale three years from now.

But I need something for now, to sate my own impatience and to take advantage of the online before everyone stops playing it.

Ah right, I get you. Yeah, I'm curious as to which will turn out better, but only on a purely academic level. I only have a PS3 so I don't really have a choice.

Was just reading back through the Madstacks BritGAF OT


It's funny to look back only a few months and still be greeted with a weird nostalgia, back in february when I joined I really forced myself into this group. My posting habits made me cringe, how fucking hyperactive and bipolar I was.. Using the ":p" emoticon way too much, I got a good few chuckles out of the rants I went on such as the hoover incident, the family fights, when me and meadows clashed resulting in him getting owned by TDM and that time my friend got ID'd for being with me whilst I bought myself beer.

Teamed with the shenanigans of Mikesides Dating adventures (which I miss) Chinners comics (also miss) and the notorious Noffles trolling left, right and centre...always coming back unscathed to our bemusement (untill that fateful day)

Although I don't post all that much anymore (Well, compared to how I used to), just thought I'd spend the time to say everyone here is the goddamn shit, now I have my life on track with the apprenticeship and I have my own place and I kinda have you guys to thank, I would've gone insane without you guys to talk to.. I took a risk moving to Portsmouth with no friends or people I knew there other than the family friend I was moving in with so to have all you guys to talk to on here whenever I was feeling down saved my ass


Kinda gotta wonder how shit things would be by now if I had stayed at home in Devon unemployed with no job prospects, no desire to do anything other than get fucked up and make a fool of myself on a daily basis


but yeah

Nice one Tash. Love a 'feel good' story.


I'll double-dip. Triple if I think the PC version will run better than PS4 (which it probably won't on my rig).

A part of me hopes I hate it so I don't end up triple-dipping. Either way I'm at least double dipping, since I'll get it when it's dirt cheap on steam regardless.

edit: oh shit, didn't see that app, time to strain and make my custom plate through my iphones broken ass screen.

I hated GTA 4 and I still ended up triple-dipping on that mofo. It's GTA, man. Put all common sense aside and throw yourself in.

Yea same, well I only double dipped, but it was like all 3 games for something ridiculous like a fiver not going to pass that up. I even played it yesterday, gosh what a terrible game.
