    Check Shirts – My Two Cents

    I pretty much live in check shirts, they are just awesome. I tend to wear them like the guy down there. With the top couple buttons undone and sleeves rolled up to the elbows. Tucking in should be kept for smartly dressed times though. That’s the great thing about the check shirts, team them up with good jeans and shoes, tuck them in and you’ve got a smart casual thing going on. Just put them on loose over a tshirt…

    Wolf Like Me  by Clare Corfield Carr

    Wolf Like Me by Clare Corfield Carr

      This is the most recent addition to my Man Cave’s walls: It’s an awesome print by Clare Corfield Carr, i’ve seen a few other pieces of her work in the Here and Now gallery in Falmouth and they’re all great.

      Rural Alberta Advantage are a Canadian, Indie Rock band. I love their natural sound, they always make me imagine the big open spaces of Canada.

Being a 21st Century man, later in the day I took to the internet and used this little website called google (don’t know if you’ve ever heard of it) to find out…

    Ultimate Man Cave Part 1

    Ultimate Man Cave Part 1

      Every single day, literally no people say to me; “Mike, what would be in your ultimate Man Cave?” Well i’m getting pretty sick and tired of this constant request, so I thought I’d best do a series of posts spilling the beans. So here you go, BOOM: All Man Caves must contain a Chesterfield. Easily the most manly sofa and superior to all other ways of sitting down. Putting it simply, its the Magnum P.I. of furniture.
