JJ, the watch doctor, attempting to make my sub disappear before my very eyes.

LOL!!

Guys,

Mike and his lovely wife, Peg, met up with me last night in Auckland at the Crowne Plaza Hotel.

I was trying to get Mike's TT Blue Sub to fit him properly by getting the connecting pin into the last hole. It was still too bloody tight for him.

Eventually, he picked up an extra steel/gold link from Mansor's this afternoon and is a very happy chappy now!!

Good on ya, Mike. It was great meeting up with you and Peg. Hope to see you again one day!!

Cheers - JJ

JJ, that fake sub looks great on you. Those fakes have really gotten quite good!

Here is a photo of JJ, Peg and me during our brief, but enjoyable visit here in Auckland.



JJ, THANKS so much for taking the time to meet with us and for all that you did to help me obtain an additional link through your fine jewelers, Mansor's.

It goes without saying that you and yours are welcome at our stateside home whenever you are able to make the trip. Peg and I sincerely enjoyed our visit with you and look forward to meeting you again!

And... I can attest that JJ's sub is no fake.

Mike

Thanks Mike and Peg.

That was a nice little get together we had on Friday evening. Hope to catch up with you and Peg again some day.

Trust you enjoyed the sights and sounds of NZ and will visit us again in the future.

My very best to the two of you.

With all good wishes - JJ

I remember trying to use it to get the damn micro-pin into the last hole for Mike as he has a very large wrist. The pen just happened to be lying there.

BTW, what's Biro?
