You didn't happen to be on the same trip as me were you (13th Dec from Koln)?
That was our first (having done 3 big cruise ships previously), booked again for this October (Avignon > Lyons - so a...
It looks like I've managed to get a Black Monopusher - completed by 2.01.15
Had my address set on my profile - so no time wasted there - and pasted my card number in (typed my name and other info...
Travelled up to our place near Cartmel on Thursday, bright but very cold (alfresco dining wasn't such a great idea) at Cartmel Christmas Fare yesterday.
The wind started up after we'd left the...
The account sign-on was mucking around as well this morning (treating my logon attempt as a new account creation then stating (correctly) that the email address was already in use).
Nothing else...
What's that other discussion called now ... "EVs must be a practical proposition now" or something ?
Yeah - the habit of putting charging points in amongst the normal parking spaces (as opposed to a dedicated charging area) does encourage 'misuse' from certain types of people.
On a similar trip...
This all the way (for bicycles as well) - only way to stop the current free for all.
Probably road tax as well (why should there use the roads for free?) - once we aren't using cars the govt will...
Indeed - waiting to see what alternative straps other use so I can get something ordered before mine arrives ....
I'm RC24161162 @ 2.03 - thought that I was in there on the dot but barely made the first 200 it seems.
White Dial Navigator (which looks to have been a popular choice)
Really like the black dial version (especially the lume shot).
Not bothered whether manual or auto (having a Speedy Pro and an El Primo).
Is this modelled any particular watch from the past -...
it did well to reach 60 years - a few months I had to have an entire roof stripped on a 19 year old house and the felt removed and replaced by the modern equivalent as it had deteriorated to the...
Like the dedicated case design.
Why the choice of red for the recent cases though? I'm not complaining, it's the colour of my Football and F1 teams (not that either are doing that well currently)...
Which unit is that? I'm grandfather was an engine fitter on B24s in the far east - 160SQN
Had 3 emails from UPS - first and last saying that they had missed me and so rescheduled for tomorrow and the middle one saying delivered and "met customer woman" ...
Actually they had partially...
My original intention was to ignore these and await the Navigator (though getting one of those was going to difficult going by the interest).
Then I thought I might try for a Baby Speedbird and...
The stock was never likely to last long but those prices guarantee it.
The 30 minute open (see post #6) is a good move - it'll let people order some of the older models & straps without being locked out by the scrum for the new models.
I'll probably try for Baby...
Still own one of two houses that we've bought new (moved out in 2012 and rented it since).
5 Bed detached on development of 5 houses (getting on for 1/3 million in 2001), the snagging list was...
How about alternative opening days for (e.g.) Recent Releases and Back Catalogue?
That way the frenzy around the new releases doesn't impact the regular turnover of the older but still good models...
I've till next April to exchange my '17 plate 440 - The looks are fine IMO but at £53K (albeit 4x4 and an extra 50 BHP) I doubt that I'll go for the new one at that money.
Probably be a very good...
Happy with that - I've an SBIII and PRS-29 so didn't think that there was space for this but it's different enough to earn a spot I think ...
Indeed - as the movement doesn't seem to be centred in the case my brain seems to want to constantly adjust to try and fix it ... it hurts
As for the positioning of the Day / Month windows - all...
I'd be more isolated there than staying at home - not another house with 2 miles at least - it would be like prepping
Have a farm house booked near the welsh borders - we're still welcome to go but wondering where we will find any food ... the plan was a delivery / click+collect from a nearby store but that can't be...
