Thanks for your thoughts - that's put things in perspective and helpful to bear in mind. You're right that facts and figures do help to compare watches in similar price points, but looks is one of...
I've been tempted by the latest Breitling Superocean Automatic range, but one of the things making me hesitant pulling the trigger is the rather lame 38h power reserve.
It's close diving...
£3k would be pushing it for the latest version on a bracelet, but it would get you one on rubber.
The authenticity guarantee on eBay for watches over £1,500 is an excellent service and would...
In 8 hours no less and there’s a waiting list as well.
Lovely watch and although it’s a brand I’ve never been into I would seriously consider buying this watch. Hopefully it’s a game changer for...
This happened to me last month. I sold a watch on eBay and sent it to the authenticator (which is an excellent service BTW) and they received it fine and sent it onto the buyer the same day.
But...
Th aka for your replies and suggestions everyone. My work provide a Microsoft Surface laptop with Office365 so I think I’ll give Onenote a try. A couple of colleagues at work also recommended this. ...
I’ve worked in large corporate companies for years and I’ve always relied on a trusty notepad and pen to take notes in meetings. Blue pen for notes and red pen for actions.
But I keep meaning to...
Thanks. I really like the Enyaq but it’s way out of my price range at the moment. Maybe in a few years.

Sounds good and a good sign that you went for another VW EV. I’ve looked at the ID3 and 4 but both out of our price range at the moment. Hopefully in a few years though

Thanks for sharing your experience. We’ll mainly use it for shorter journeys so I don’t think the range will be a problem.
I’m just looking into getting a 7kw home charger installed at the...
Thanks, that’s really helpful. I didn’t know about the grants so I’ll look into that.
Range on 2/3 year old eGolf seems to be around 120-140 miles. Not great but would cover most of our needs. On...
Thanks for your advice. The spec and range looks pretty similar on the Leaf and to be honest I’m not keen on the way it looks. Although I think with both cars I need to see and drive one rather than...
With fuel prices continuously going up I’m seriously thinking about getting my first EV. I can spend around £20k ish and had a look at what’s available.
The only one I like the look of at this...
I can highly recommend - I love mine, which was totally unexpected. It’s not a brand I’ve bought before but I’m really impressed for the money. The blue is fantastic and works well with the strap....
Thanks for that, just bought a lovely blue leather strap for £9 inc shipping.
£4690 for the 42mm Zenith El Primero seems pretty good (RRP £6700)

They also have £1000 off a...
What mpg are you getting on the XC90?

Thanks Jim, that’s really useful. I really like the XC90 so I’ll give it a test drive.

Why did you decide to go for the XC90 rather than getting a newer Q7? I’m guessing you liked your old one if you kept it for 10 years.
I’m only asking as both are in my shortlist but haven’t...
Lovely to hear and a good reminder that happiness lies in people not things.

Thanks guys - lots of good points.
I often listen to a short Ted Talk when I go on my lunch break walk and there some really exciting technological advances in climate, energy and healthcare....
I often think of this too and how awful that time must have been. And also how that still goes on in the world to some extent.
I realise we’re very lucky in many respects.

I need to keep remembering this. Easier said than done sometimes. My wife doesn’t keep very close to current affairs and whilst it means she can’t keep up with every conversation, she seems happier...
Let's face it, the world can seem pretty doom and gloom. With climate change, extreme weather, wars, rumours of wars, pandemics, stock shortages, corruption.....the list goes on, sometimes it can all...
