i'll be there Simon. 2 big GTG's in 2 months. gotta be a record
i'm making the most of the Paris trip by having a bit of a holiday with Bim before and Big Daddy afterwards. London will be a day trip by train. after that i think i'll have to hibernate for a month or so. G
Two in two months - an 'Olympic' effort. How fitting in this year :-)
It will be great to see you again, in Paris and London. Regards. Simon
Great news, Simon!
Thank you, thank you! You've definitely made my day! I have a friend in London who is slowly entering the world of watches. Would it be cool for him to join us as well? Thanks and see you soon, Alex
Would love to attend
New here. But been reading and enjoying this website for quite some time. I would love to attend (and mark my first post with a request to join what promises to be a great purist get-together). Best, Walid
Looking forward
To breaking my duck and making new "Watch" friends. Thanks for arranging things. David
