Some people who consider themselves "watch enthusiasts" are really just marketing enthusiasts.

Thanks for the advice. My budget is very tight after recent car, TV and tablet purchases so I'll be buying a second hand Steam Deck 256 or 512 GB. I just can't stretch to an OLED model unfortunately,...

The Watch Guy is very good and very reasonably priced.

Thanks for all your inputs. As I expected the consensus is overwhelmingly in favour of the Steam Deck. It's made up my mind that I need to get one.

I can't afford the OLED version unfortunately...

I've a small amount of money left over from my annual bonus and I'm looking to expand / upgrade my gaming options.

Currently I have an Xbox One S and I mostly play Forza Motorsport 7, Forza...

I'm not sure of regional variations, however, as a total Spain has the highest youth unemployment rate in Europe with over a quarter out of work.

Don't some of the Nordic countries have the highest rates of suicide but also appear at the top of the happiness index as well? It's likely the weather / SAD has some impact on suicide rates in...

The same rules apply for SUVs and performance cars so I don't see the difference. If a car is more polluting, it will be taxed more. More performance is no better a justification for more pollution...

Presumably high CO2 performance cars, that cannot be driven anywhere near their potential safely on the road, should also be taxed out of existence?

Regarding Clarkson, as a farmer he now needs an...

Exactly, they can be very practical if you have kids and / or elderly relatives and are generally much more interesting than a van like MPV.

Not every one has the same criteria as Jeremy Clarkson...

This season was "True Detective" in name only. I believe none of the team from the first 3 series were involved and HBO decided to name it under the True Detective banner after it had already been...

Fixed that for you.

We stayed in the Chia Laguna Village resort on the Southern Coast for our honeymoon.

The resort was nice with a lovely private beach and good food. I believe the best beaches are supposed to be...

Being chatty, lively and anxious can all be traits of ADHD though. And these could be more pronounced in a restrictive environment like school.

It may have already been looked into / ruled out but...

Have you looked into / ruled out ADHD?

People have short memories, there were some very dark times in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

The 2000s were like a utopia in comparison to today.

My biggest concern here would be that the friend was happy to pass off his fake watch as real. That would be a big red flag for me.

You mean like his "poor showing" in 2023 where he finished top of the teams that had no chance of winning the championship and 5 places above his teamate?

How about a Tag Heuer 2000 Exclusive Auto Chronograph? He should be able to get one close to his budget on ebay. They're 38mm but slightly chunky and I find they wear really well. There's a blue dial...

The tax rules haven't changed, you only pay tax on profits and if you are trading.

The confusion over the £1000 limit is that a trader can sell £1000 of goods (revenue) on ebay in total without...

It's not the same at all. In some countries the "Democratic" process is heavily manipulated by fraud and intimidation.

It's easy to spot these countries, they will have had the same ruling leader...

Also known as a fair Democratic election.

And of course all the elections in Russia have been completely free and fair even though the same party has won by a landslide for the last 23 years.

No amount of money could convince me to go to Russia. Mad to even consider it on a UK passport.

Yes, it mainly shows an appreciation of money not watches. Similar to a billionaire having a collection of multimillion pound, one off hypercars.

You've got to way up the pros versus the cons.

I've been buying / selling on ebay for nearly 20 years and I've had one bad experience which cost me almost £900. I didn't fully read eBay's terms...
