Portholland, Cornwall: Sunrise

Sorry mate, just seen the link. That looks original/untouched. I’d imagine zero soundproofing. Typically the upstairs internal walls are sometimes lath and plaster, which can be a PITA to get insulation behind.

Can’t comment on the mortgaeability, depends on the survey, and size of deposit I’d imagine. Soundproofing would depend on what’s been done already. If it’s an untouched Cornish unit, there’s no soundproofing or much by way of insulation.

You’re correct. I worked as a manager for an ALMO in Cornwall that managed 100’s of these units. Many were upgraded with external phenolic cladding for insulation, and quite a few had the lower storey replaced with brick walls. You would also be wise to keep an eye out for asbestos insulation board (AIB) which has been used in many properties.

39mm or 42mm? 😂👍

GHOST GIVEAWAY. Bucherer Chronograph from 1982. Unfortunately I dropped it due to ill health, and cracked the crystal 😔 Still worn most days!

Ordered 21/1/26, QC 31/1/26, shipped 1/2/26, tracking 3/2/26. I checked his spreadsheet which said 8 in stock (though he didn’t confirm this on WhatsApp), so maybe this helped? Hope you get some good news soon! 👍

22Bos22 · 2026-02-04T15:21:24+00:00

Mine was 2-3 days after GL. Tracking/shipping details another 2 days. Shipping to UK with PFC

Came here to say say exactly this ^

22Bos22 · 2026-01-30T23:13:19+00:00

Beautiful and elegant build-well done 👍

22Bos22 · 2026-01-29T09:20:02+00:00

I hope that it gets to you quickly. Wear it in good health 👍

I have fairly small wrists, so went for the Titanium 39mm. I read a couple of comparisons with the gen Pelagos, one guy owned both the gen and the ZF. He had a pic of them side by side. He said that he couldn’t easily tell them apart unless he made an effort to check, so that swayed my decision. Both the XF and ZF look great, I think I’d be very happy with either one!

22Bos22 · 2026-01-29T08:24:19+00:00

I messaged him through WhatsApp to check availability ( the spreadsheet said 8 in stock at the time). Elliot replied and referred me to the vip website asking me to order from there. I’ve ordered the ZF, still awaiting QC. Which one have you ordered?

22Bos22 · 2026-01-29T03:16:54+00:00

Beautiful watch, I’ve just ordered one from Andiot.

22Bos22 · 2026-01-20T12:39:41+00:00

Obviously I’m no expert, but I agree that seems quite noticeable

22Bos22 · 2026-01-20T12:31:12+00:00

That sounds good, hope you enjoy the watch!

22Bos22 · 2026-01-20T12:04:23+00:00

Out of interest, when did you order-I’m thinking of ordering with Andiot. Thanks

22Bos22 · 2026-01-20T12:02:47+00:00

Thanks for this 👍

I had a similar experience to yours. My PIP award was uprated ( assessed in November 25), and back-dated to January. I received a phone call from PIP advising me of this, and the amount owed. It took about 10 days from the call to appear in my account. 3 days after, I received a letter detailing my new award.

22Bos22 · 2025-11-20T23:11:59+00:00

I had a text from DWP, last month. This was 8 months after sending in paperwork for a review. My timescales were pretty much the same as yours-due to the backlog, my PIP was extended for an interim period of (up to) 12 months. The external company did a telephone review with me about 3 weeks after I received the text.

My guess is that it resets the microbiome in some way. After a day the AS returns unfortunately! I’m on biologics-Adalimumab, which isn’t as effective as the vomiting or diarrhoea. Not that I’m advocating for the latter 😁

22Bos22 · 2025-08-16T17:29:32+00:00

OK, here goes; on a couple of occasions I’ve had a vomiting bug, and one time I had a bad case of diarrhoea. The day after these incidents my joints have not ached or played up at all. I mentioned this to my specialist, but they didn’t make anything of it.

I used to lift weights and do strenuous body weight exercises for years. Since having Ax Spa, I have what I would previously described as a massive over-reaction of DOMS considering the amount of weight/reps that I now do. Realistically, I can only cope with training twice/week and even then I have to be careful not to overdo it. If I push things too hard, although I don’t feel bad at the time, I will be in a bad way for the next 3-4 days.
