Popped into The Dickens at the weekend & despite a somewhat strange change of policy I've eventually today reserved us the same 'summer tables' (by the doors) from 1.00pm, & made dinner reservations at The Living Room for 8-ish.

Bring it on boys bring it on.......
Top work Dan! Really looking forward to the festivities!

Guys

Slight change of plan for me on the sunday. I have to be back in Poole for 2pm. Its my son's graduation ceremony from nursey, no I am not kidding he is 3 years old !!!!!!! Mrs BH13 gave me "the look" when I pointed i would be in London looking at watches. Sooooo i will be away by 11 to get to waterloo for my train.
I may come in earlier on saturday to have a quick butchers around the Burlington en route to the Tower.

So we will be meeting at the Dickens from 1pm. I am looking forward to seeing Nathan arrive late and honouring his agreement

Not long to go before lots of the following (not necessarily in this order)

By the way chaps is anyone bringing a DeepSea....???.


I'm getting a yearning for one but think it might be too high for me so ten minutes on the wrist might sway me one way or the other if anyone doesn't mind me trying theirs on????

Hi All! I've got a couple of watches I'm looking to part with if anyone going on Saturday would be interested?

I've a brand new and complete, unworn black dial Explorer II 16570, which is two and half years old, and a 39mm Explorer bought about 4 months ago. It is as new but has been worn in the office a little.

If you are seriously interested, let me know and I could bring them along for you to see.

Adam
