Thanks for showing. Bought one of Katherine Jenkins' CDs recently. Great voice. Regards, Richard.

Cartier polo event
Thanks for the report SJX. I've never been to a polo event. Does Cartier (or even Piaget) display any of their watches at these types of events? Regards, ED-209
Not that I recall for Cartier
at the polo events I have attended. No watches on display. It's basically champagne, food and watching polo. - SJX
