I doubt it Mikey boy. If they sell out I’ll run down my street naked

Don't tell me, I don't even have to watch. Was there one or more of these per chance?

Flyin' at!!! (at meaning out)
Internet in meldan!!!
Phone lines gone crazy!!!
I say this not to rush you ...

1pm tomorrow - Tompion watches with Pedro.

Guaranteed he'll call them Papillon at some point.

See it's another 2 weeks before they're dispatched.

And two weeks after receipt they stop working.

Symmetry.

Well that ain't a good look, something not right with this movement.

Time on watch is 26 minutes to 10, sub dial is at 12. They should be the same.

At most they should be flogging these for the first flexi. Where's Peter S when you need him, for once he'd be right!

£38 on five flexis!!!

To be fair, they've probably got bundle loads of cash to spend on overpriced £2k watches as spare cash from the exorbitant costs of residential care home fees.

It's 12:30 now and Joanne doing the Thomas Tompion stuff. I don't suppose she knows much about it but it's probably £25 quid for nearly £200?

Does that make Pedro Cuthbert, Dibble or Grub?

More like Dribble or Grubby.

More like Dribble or Grubby.

Maybe his porn star name would have been Grubby Dribbler.





Or will it be his nickname in the nursing home in a few years?
