I am just trying to rejoin the Intenational Association of Rubberists (IAR) after an exile of about 10 months. I had an acrimonious argument with the founder, Ataraxia, over a complaint about a site sponsor that someone (not me) had posted after all efforts to contact them by other means had failed. It was a sort of "be careful when trading with these guys" post, but it was deleted on the grounds that it might cause the sponsor to withdraw their support from the IAR site. Ataraxia and I had a brief and bitter exchange of emails and I was banished. Notwithstanding the rights and wrongs, it was a shame. I could do the obvious thing of joining under another name, but one of the things I want to do is be more open about my rubber. As PeeGee (my original nick), I had put my picture on my profile and wrote openly about what we did. I think it would be unsatisfying not to be able to refer back to all that in a new guise. Writing this blog has encouraged me to rejoin - whether I'll be let in or not is another matter!
Anyway - more photos.
This is me and my wife in the garden in summer. I'm wearing a top and shorts from Kunzmann. She's wearing my Kunzmann black shirt and a black Malaysian rubber skirt.
This is that shirt and skirt.
And, finally, the new black shirt from Kastley (smells terrific!)
