Remember when you all get your wallet out for the new, never seen before Duchump Aurora, designed by Christophe himself in his wee workshop up in the Alps, you could always just go and buy the original from Roamer that the Aurora is copying, okay slight changes to dial but it's basically the same watch.

Why do all the offices look like hell holes

Theres a tree in the car park, what more do you want.

I was looking at the Swiss divers watches from Swiss Alpine, Swiss Military and Roamer on that site and they were similar spec at £80-£120, not the £159 of IW.

The Crapolito Vac is hideously noisy with an awful bleeding screeching whine.

Does it resemble the scribblings of a crazed madman?

Either that, or he's got amazing shorthand - it also looked like it had been done in a sharpie, President Trump style.

Respect to Gen yesterday when she said that they were presenters not health professionals therefore shouldn’t be giving medical advice - I hope Dr Edwards and jelly sacks were listening to this

Nice to hear that she said that. If the majority of the other presenters had had Gen’s recent health problems I suspect they’d infer that the various snake oils they flog had helped them.

And you could tell that Pete Van Crapvac was extremely proud of it.

The usual "let's slag off cordless vacs but not too much, just enough - someone might have forgotten to charge it".

At the end of the day, it does what it says on the tin
