What I’ve learned from my (brief) Forum hiatus...

Post by jkbarnes »

  • My lack of exercise wasn’t because I’m spending too much time on the forum, it’s because I’m lazy.
  • I wasn’t spending too much time online because of the forum, it’s because a connected smart device is in my hand 24/7, and that didn’t change.
  • I need a new turntable because my current turntable sounds lousy (a Fluance RT81 arrives this very night!).
  • The forum isn’t just a place to talk & learn about CW watches, it’s a community of great people who I’ve come to consider friends, and I’ve missed the interaction!

Andrew. Good to have you back. It hasn't been the same. Your assessment was correct in every particular.
