2.8 women a day, EVERY DAY!

Who's got the energy for that?!

Cocaine. Cocaine has the energy. Lots and lots of cocaine

I thought cocaine kind of had a detrimental effect in that department?

Have you tried putting the roof up?

With the arrival of cooler weather, I've become increasingly aware of the draft that comes into the car when the roof's down It has a mesh draft deflector, but it doesn't really do much So I've ordered a perspex one (NB: no Porsche logo or other silly stuff etched in it) Hopefully this will reduce t...

I have a soft spot for the Omega Aquaterra, but I'm buggered if I'm spending £6k on one

Thankfully, San Martin heard my prayers, and only wanted £150

Reminds me of a Jaguar F-Type

Went looking at Omega's yesterday - there seems to be several new face colours and shades that i haven't seen before They released a new Aquaterra in 2022, although I've yet to actually find an AD/shop that has any yet! And even though I quite like it, they're £6000 now That's daft money IMO for su...

Lovely. Though it’s still £56,000 or so, I see. Not going to put my name down for one 😄 That's retail of course Good luck actually being able to buy one from an AD Or getting one for less than twice that on the grey market Watches are fucked now IMO, I've resigned myself to not actually owning anot...

They do!

Speaking of watches... I started a new job a few weeks ago and met the CEO last week - really nice chap, self-made, built and sold several companies and doing very nicely from it He was wearing a Patek Philippe Nautilus Travel Time Chronograph 5990/1R-001 They seem to go for around £230-250k 😮 Defin...

Interesting - its a nice looking watch, though I'm not sure enough history behind it - the conquest name has been stuck on pretty much everything over the years and I think most often referred to a dress watch in their line up (but I could be wrong). I wonder if Harry has considered an Espada to go...

Longines has launched a new chrono lately, the Conquest 2023: https://monochrome-watches.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Longines-Conquest-2023-Chronograph-42mm-hands-On-review-L3.835.4.32.6-5.jpg https://monochrome-watches.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/Longines-Conquest-2023-Chronograph-42mm-hands-...

And the counter-rotating rev counter @Jobbo

I couldn't live with that...

Coincidence that his new TV show starts tonight?

Very much this

They do look very nice I don't really have the space or money for a good hi-fi, plus we're in a terrace, so it's not like I could really enjoy one anyway But your write up did remind me of some things...

https://news.sky.com/story/video-and-voice-call-features-to-be-introduced-on-x-elon-musk-says-12951810 Involves collecting users data including employment history.. I don't like it, although I don't use social media (other than LinkedIn) But is it any different to what other providers are doing?

Still remember buying my issue one of Evo in WH Smith's in Welshpool while I was there visiting a friend of mine
