Horo, I will have the Char Kway Teow - Stir Fried Rice Noodle. But since I am on a low cholesterol diet ... I will just take another pill, imagining that it's a large plate of Char Kway Teow. Now serious ... A serious sport watch: A wonderful weekend to a...

Interesting....I'm in QA for Crestor at Astrazeneca...

Tell me what batch it is and I'll tell you how good it is.!! It's a big one for us :) Andy.

Yes..!! LOL..!!

You on Crestor too.? What strength.? I'm in the technical team fixing the robots which do the work in the Crestor team :) Yours my chlorestorol friend, Andy.

Dont ask me difficult questions....

 
 By: G99 : October 26th, 2012-02:42
Dont ask me difficult questions. I take 1 pink tab a day i think its 10mg. I started on the lower dose and when my levels got lower they doubled the dose which makes no sense whatsoever.

Welcome to the "club"

 
 By: nilomis : October 26th, 2012-04:56
Doctors want to mummify us using, now we know, Andy's help. My current cholesterol levels can be compared with the levels of Tutankhamun but my Dr. wants to lower more!! There was a reason that I always associated Andy's cat with Dr. Evil. We are doomed. ...  

Your trick calling Mr. Bigglesworth as "Moon" ...

 By: G99 : October 26th, 2012-01:56
I think they give you the opportunity to eat what you want as they keep the cholesterol low for you :) I know i have the wrong attitude, but you only live once depending on your religious beliefs. G

I could have done better as the guy next to me had a white dial 15300 with him...nice to compare his to mine to see how much has been removed for the skeleton..!! Great Dire Straits track too :) Cheers, Andy.

I find self portrait wrist shots REALLY difficult. I suppose that a different lens might make it easier... --Sancerre

What did u use?

 
 By: Hororgasm : October 26th, 2012-09:47
I tend to take wristshot with my Samsung phone...sometimes acceptable results, sometimes nothing much to desire. Best, Horo

I tried twice

 
 By: sancerre : October 26th, 2012-09:55
The first try was with my iPhone, and it was really bad. This is with my Nikon D7000 and an 18-200mm lens. The trouble is holding the camera far enough away for the focus to work.

You should get a panasonic...

 
 By: G99 : October 26th, 2012-10:54
You should get a panasonic lx 3,5 or 7. Or the leica equivalent. With its macro mode and 28mm lense a wrist shot is easy without needing to be Houdini. Its not much good as a scenery camera though. G

it is, but there is another reason

 
 By: sancerre : October 26th, 2012-09:46
My other watch (I am down to two now) it about back from repair. I expect to receive it today or tomorrow. But, it won't be with me long, for I plan on trading it in on a new piece from my other favorite brand. --Sancerre

Can't wait to see that!

 By: amanico : October 26th, 2012-21:34
In black. Now, you're right, the EP s really something. My Daytona approves. :) Best, Nicolas

In that you are right, but an El Primero is something else, you know that!

 
 By: PoyFR : October 26th, 2012-23:52
It an amassing adventure, something that we almost never would have seen, something about humans and their resources. El Primero rules even if and you are right I am not a Chrono guy.

Beautiful El Primero ...
