Re: Are blue and blue the same?

Model photos from the CW Archive

Re: Six Nations 2024

I wouldn’t rate my chances of stopping Sisilia Tuipulotu even in my playing days. She’s a force of nature! :shock:

Re: Six Nations 2024

Wales 7 points down in red time, #9 box kicks, Scottish lass boots into touch, ta very much! :shock:

Italy v England this afternoon on BBC2. :popcorn:

Wearing camouflage on a sunny day in Dibley would be a bit like wearing a dive watch in the Atacama…

I’ll get me (plain black) coat.

Re: MoonSwatch Mission to Moonphase Snoopy

Original price c. $300

Two questions:

1. Will people buy them at x10 markup?

2. Why?

It won’t be for the pleasure of wearing it, I’ll be bound. :-k

Others with more statistical nous looke...

On a more affordable level… Looking at what’s in my own slightly eclectic box, I’d love to see more Ulysse Nardin, MeisterSinger and especially Cartier. Cartier are a massive, popular a...
