I can easily see how you’d end up with a tight but varied handful like that.

Nice.

Oh, so that’s what brain freeze is. Never heard of it before and never had it.

It doesn’t come to a halt, but if I imagined that it was a car engine it sometimes seems to be running on contaminated fuel.

I understand.

Fingerprint sensors don’t work for me after a shower.

I can’t imagine dressing like that. I’m not knocking it, but it would be way outside my comfort zone.

It’s not unimaginable that I would make my excuses and stay home. Fortunately, I’ve never...

The BBC showed the Elvis ‘comeback’ show from 1968 tonight. I’d seen it before, but not for a long time.

What a power that man was, and in settings like this, completely authentic. A popular...

I make no allowances, or very few. If it was a sweaty day I would probably have taken it off. A Grand Seiko isn’t going to suffer from me walking up and down with a small electric mower. :)

I didn’t realise it was ‘grab it while you can’ and that it was relatively affordable… but I don’t generally go for limited/lottery things anyway.

I have to agree with the comments about Omega. I don’t usually monitor prices that closely, but I’ve been doing a lot of window shopping while awaiting the resolution of an inheritance. Omega’s...

Back to basics.

I still don’t see a problem, and might question the way he has been reported. Other sources have reported the same comments quite differently, such as here:

2024 will be “a challenge” for the...

But Dufour is exactly right, and in the context of the interview he hasn’t said anything remarkable or newsworthy. They are talking about the relative values of the Swiss franc and the American...

I had one, and I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if Kronos had (or has) one too. It reminded me of my first Casio, sometime in the early 80s, which I think was this one -

Jesus wept, I saw some pictures of that. I hadn’t really been aware of it before.

I’m not bad at conjuring up lurid fantasises, but I can’t imagine one in which I could go to something like that,...

Out and about at our local jazz club down by the sea. Elaine Delmar, vocally undimmed at 84. Her father was Leslie ‘Jiver’ Hutchinson, one of the first of the Caribbean jazz musicians to reach...

The prettiest battlefield watch I know.

That definitely has the wrong hands.

Plead poverty and wear the Christopher Ward.

But other than that, the date on the Zenith could be handy for signing cheques.

Inimitable and influential - and fun. I didn’t realise he was still around - well, until he wasn’t.
