    2 1/2 years later... PRS22 freebie

    Life's been good. Despite some ups and downs job-wise, I consider myself a lucky guy in what matters... what matters: family, health and watches of course :) TZ-UK keeps being by far the virtual location in which I spend most of my web surfing time. Once again, many thanks Eddie.

    About two and a half years ago, a thread I started proved to unexpectedly successful: http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.php?235346-1k-freebie

    Think it's about time to replicate it, with the same rules and hopefully a similar outcome. I will send a Speedbird III (the best value for money watch ever, at least in my opinion) to a randomly selected poster from this thread. I will print the names of all the contributors to the thread and then ask my daughter Katia to pick a ticket from one of her hats. Again, the kind request I have for each poster is to donate any amount of money to a charity of your choice; it might as well be Eddie's, but there's no restriction in this regard. I will ask for no proof of the donation.

    The watch is in a most excellent shape btw :)

    Katia will chose the winner on Saturday evening.

    Cheers,
    Christian

    Any excuse to donate to charity for me, especially if there's a watch involved! I'll make a donation to a Bird sanctuary which has had its fair share of issues, but has now finally been able to move and acquire charity status.

    Thanks!

    Great gesture. I'm in and will donate to Eddies fundraiser.

    Another great gesture on this fine forum. I'll chuck a tenner at the local hospice that looked after my Mum at the end. It's called Willen Hospice, in case anyone's interested.

    Lovely idea and very generous of you to donate a watch.

    I'm in and will donate to the forum charity thread, if by chance my name comes out of the hat I'll top that up further.

    I'd love to, fantastic gesture!

    Can someone link me to the most up-to-date fundraiser page? I've found the one with the Virgin Money links, but I'd like to make sure I'm submitting to the correct one. Cheers.

    Great idea - I'm donating to a local youth charity.

    What an outrageously generous offer.

    Cash from me will be going to the Macmillan Nurses, as they've been remarkably busy looking after one particular branch of my family of late
