Thanks to all you guys for making my time here fun.

It is also a very well informed site. The information given by members helped to guide me with the purchase of my second Rolex, a "Pepsi" GMT 11. Thank you for those who helped in my decision, and in particular Jim, Larry, Jon & Harvey.

My delight with this site is the goofball nature, and good natured banter that works between so many of the members. Thanks, Jim, JJ, TR, Joe, Chris, Jim, Carolina, Stuart, Frostie and many others who brighten my life daily

Also a big thank you to Steve for putting the whole thing together, and who along with the mods run TRF with a sense of fun and do their work in an even handed manner

Finally pictures of the watches

I'm fine buddy. Apart from poxy Spurs getting whacked and me losing a wad of cash at Newmarket Races last night (and having to put up with a concert by Boyzone) I'm good!
