That gorgeous fairy godmother..........LOL!!

Okay, guys.............that stunning fairy godmother of yours comes down to you and gives you THREE options, but you may choose only ONE..................

Which way would you go?

Option 1: A brand new SS Rolex Oyster of your choice (mind you, SS only)!!

Option 2: Five nights with a stunning beauty at the best 5-star hotel in town.............everything on the house!!

Option 3: A WHOLE day with a top-notch Formula 1 driver and you also get to drive 40 laps of the track in a Formula 1 car............and at the end of it all, you're presented with a brand new OMEGA Speedmaster watch!!

Which one would you pick............and why?

Cheers - JJ

Option one of course, if not then you're not a true RIS!

Now, can the SS be a Daytona?

It was a choice between 2 and 3 (because like most on here I already have No.1)

I went for 3 because a) I'm a car nut and 40 laps in an F1 car would be a dream come true - and b) because by day three she'd already be nagging the hell out of you

Now if the girl gave me the speedy at the end of our 5 days however....

Option 3 for me JJ. been there , done that with the other 2 choices. Driving an F1 car would be unreal. You can't buy that

Take the F1 car, lap down the circuit and pick up a few beauties on the way by doing a couple doughnut spins to get their attention. Option 2 will come naturally after all that fuss =P. Life is sweet!

#3. You get the car ride of your life and you still walk away with a great watch.

JJ, I'll have to go with the Rolex. First, it'll last longer; second, one girl in my life is more than enough.
