Albam get together aka The Conference!




Sometimes and definitely more often we should get together. The other Friday the Albam family went for a spot of bowling. Not necessarily the sport of choice for some of our members with the exception of someone who will go unnamed. BUT he seemed to have got back from an intensive high altitude bowling camp as the strickes kept coming a bit too frequently for our teams liking!

It was a great evening followed by (and during) by some merriment and finished off with a little beigel. The next one I believe is a trip back in time to the world of laser quest. It is that or crown green bowls I have heard.

Chambray Hooded Work Jackets & Shorts this weekend



This weekend we are taking delivery of our shorts and the Chambray work jackets which I have to say are looking better than the first mini run we did.

Autumn is on the way!


Now, I know we have just had a mini heatwave in England this last week but here at Albam we are looking forward to the weather changing, the leaves turning and the temperature dropping. It isn't bad though, what it does mean is Autumn/Winter styles, layering, knitwear, great outerwear and more!

On a rather warm day I was witnessing some crafting of our new waxed outerwear. Not today but definitely for Autumn!

John Bachar - Yosemite Legend

A bit more esoteric to the usual posts but for me a legend of the climbing world has passed away, albeit doing what he lived for. John Bachar was a legend of the free climbing world, a guy from the halcyon days of American free climbing. a bit cringe worthy and the "Charlie's Angels" music is better turned off. But he needs a mention.
