Er, higher (much
), lower (quite a bit) and er....
Just actually added up how much I HAVE spent since August on me - truly shocking! Lorn's figure is much, much more reasonable but then she does borrow two expensive watches but they count as my spending. Chester is a little barrel - fat little git!
So far there is one correct answer, one close to, and the other, everyone is miles off...

1 is going in the right direction
2 is going down nicely - to my shame...
3 has already been estimated really rather closely! Now you're all being silly 'cos he is only just 6 months old and Bassets(ish) don't get THAT big... I hope.
If anyone gets all three right (or is the closest on them) then it will save me postage and very much appreciated

Ooh Mike, you're getting there mate! No, not bought anything else, though I am negotiating for another "Bond" to replace the one herself has knicked!
The figure that I have spent on myself (does include £2800 for the Speedy) is quite surprising... but you are getting close

1. Much more than I have (JMarchitect take note!)
2. Much less than I would!
3. Too much!
Proper estimates:
1. £7700
2. £590
3. 20 kg

Well there are 2 on TZ-UK - an auto and a quartz. Both full sized.

The auto is already sold
and the quartz is one I'm trying to negotiate with! However, there is a slight deficit between what he wants (£850) and what I can afford (£4.63)!

1, AVO.
2, Jimbo.
3, Kip.
If the above gentlemen would care to p.m. me their addresses I will get their pressies in the post forthwith
Kip was the only one to get an answer "bang on". Yes Chester did weigh 21kg on Monday. I have spent £7800 on watches since August - which is truly a shocker
and I have only spent £450 on Lorn! However, she has acquired a Breitling and an Omega as well so she's not doing tooooooo badly!
Yes, I really do have a problem... but I'm trying to get it under control
