Random musings and general banter.

Walking into patio door led Peter to get cosmetic surgery.

So walk into patio door one day, and a day later cosmetic skin graft done.

So is the patio door story an excuse to cover up cosmetic surgery all along?

Bump on forhead still doesn't explain the area round the bridge of his nose, eye, and eyebrows are all very different to before.

I cannot give them more than zero. Their price comparison strategy is something Matt Allwright wouldn’t look place storming in on. I only wish he would. That dreadful tactic alone removes any possibility of any marks whatsoever for them as a selling entity. Personally, I have yet to see a decent buy on this channel. I accept others may have done, but I have not. They could present me with the opportunity of a £200 Rolex and I would still decline it.

I believe in speaking as you find.

I am here neither to praise nor bury IW3. I abhor some of their presenting and selling tactics and have said so many times. They could do so much better.

My purchases were considered and researched and all were good deals. So I said so. What is wrong with that?

I laugh at a lot of what happens on this channel. The terrible price comparisons, the dubious claims, the poor presenting.

Yet now and again I do spot a good buy and I order. And when I get quick delivery and am pleased with the product I am prepared to admit it. Sorry if that upsets anyone.

You won't get me praising Peter S or Mike M or Sally J et al. They are slippery and uncouth and if they told me the time I'd check my watch. If they shook my hand I'd count my fingers.

They reflect badly on the channel and on shopping TV generally. I know I'm not the only contributor to this forum who occasionally buys stuff. It's a case of sorting the wheat from the chaff. No apologies for that.

He's just said you may have noticed 5 or 6 weeks ago I had an accident, and I had to have a cosmetic procedure. The cosmetic surgeon wanted to know what he had been taking to make his skin look so good. It isn't that long ago, we were right about cosmetic surgery.

All I have bought from IW3 is 1 bottle of Zhuzh tan accelerator. It was cheaper than zhuzh.com and had free postage. It was delivered within 48 hours of ordering via Royal Mail. I would have considered buying a Beewell blue/red light sonic toothbrush, if the replacement heads were not so expensive, and you didn't have to order the replacements from America.

Why has Pedro got a glass of water from inside an old radiator next to him?

Duchamp watches are based on history and tradition, pardon, what?

 

[Kit10]

How long has he been wittering about that Collagen? I did laugh when he asked, as a shameless sales tactic‘How much did you spend on that Firming Cream, or that Eye Cream?’ Well Pete, you should know, you were flogging them. God, it’s watches now and I have no idea what he’s actually talking about. I’m off…..,

And souls. Apparently.

In a strange sort of way I'm glad that IW is back on air. In an environment when comedy is in short supply, at least they supply a few (unintentional) laughs.

My only gripe is that they should broadcast in HD. As it stands it's difficult to appreciate the quality of the products on offer in standard definition.

£419 is the price it's always been.

I don't know, seemed like hours to me.

Paul & Philip have been declined.


Boys, Thank your lucky stars.

As relevant as the Swiss Alps.

Shame it's was assembled in the Far East nowhere nears teh Alps.

The watch he is wearing now. I have seen a roamer one with blue and orange, rather than red and blue. I like the roamer one. I am sure it is cheaper than the knock off Duchamp one.

 

[galesgal57]

This is the last time you will see them. Until the 10 o'clock show no doubt. He is saying Duchamp will be at the Basel watch show with all the big names! If they are, they will be manning the hamburger stall.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

I wonder how Joe will approach selling watches, if he has them on his show later. Hope he doesn't repeat what they feed him through the earpiece.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

C'mon Hammy, buy one, even if you don't want it.

 

[Slipalong Trevaskis]

My mate is an Arsenal fan, of course being so far from London he doesn't get to see them much, he managed to get a ticket for the home game against Newcastle back at end of Feb, he was really chuffed when he got back, then he was back to reality and coming with me to watch Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership.

I remember in the 90s when Aberdeen bought a player from my local football team, and sometime during the season, he got sent off 3 times in the same game

And souls. Apparently.

R souls more like.

 

[Kit10]

I’ve never owned a watch with a hand assembled soul. And it looks like this isn’t going to change anytime soon
