Tyll, this is just a random thought, but have you ever thought of writing a piece on the Genesis of the hobby. You are the only person who could do it justice.

Wow that's stark, Tyll.

Inside you can .. you can ... feel the difference.

San Fermin doing the boy-then-girl thing.

Thunderbirds was one of the first TV series I ever followed (we only got the box in South Africa in 1976, as the Apartheid government correctly feared it would corrupt the morals of the populace by opening a window to the rest of the World). I had watch it dubbed into fucking Afrikaans as "Redding Internasionaal" ("International Rescue"). Still loved it. RIP Sylvia.

It was for my wife. So I guess I should have said I haven't bought myself a watch in years. That might have changed today though.

Haven't bought a watch in years now. Which is odd considering I still religiously spend at least a half hour a day checking the grey dealers, forums and Chrono 24 to keep up with what's out there. Might just sell the lot to create some impetus and start from scratch again under the pretense of building a "rational collection."

Happy Birthday!

Shit. RIP Keith.

Happy Birthday!

Free your mind. It can work very well in the right piece.

Totally agree. Can still remember the first time I heard "Semi-Charmed Life" -- was on an airplane on the in-flight entertainment channel and I listened through the whole loop just to catch it over again, something I'd never done before (or have done since).

And a great legacy! RIP.

RIP Chu Moy. I wonder how many people he got into headphones and DIY? A lot.

Dr. Reks sounds like a comic book villain if you say it quickly. Good luck with the application!

Happy Birthday!

They were in my hood this week. Waitrose and the Wine Reserve behind that crossing -- where you take your life in your hands normally with a stream of Range Rover Sports. http://www.theguardian.com/media/video/2016/mar/04/jeremy-clarkson-driving-mercedes-surrey-amazon-prime-video

Turin Brakes -- Lost Property I have such a weird affection for these guys. They just keep doing what they do.

Seriously though, Chris, Focus isn't nearly big enough for you and three kids. Go back to the super wagon -- E63, RS6 Avant -- you'll be much happier.

For me to hoon? I think it's a great idea.
