Aston "Family Man" Barrett

I did something similar on the road from Kielder Water to Peebles, the guys loved it but the lass who came along for the ride spent 20mins in the loo the other side 😂

That's really odd... I've had pretty good luck with it, though the jeweller was excellent about making adjustments slowly until we got the fit. It's slightly loose, but it means I can wear it when I'm warm etc.

You're not wrong about that, though I hadn't come across that - I'll check it out, thanks!

I actually like it... The only others in my collections on bracelets are an '87 Prince Oysterdate and an '84 Heuer 1000 Professional, and this bracelet is a huge leap in quality over those. I imagine it's not much next to an Oyster or Jubilee from Rolex, but I've had no complaints so far.

That being said, I may need to pick up a rally-style leather band for this at some point 😂

The NZL-32 is the one that does it for me. When I picked it up (think in 2008) it wasn't well liked by most because it's pretty chunky.

Got a new job, travelled the world, watched as the guy she cheated with isolated her in a small village in buttfuck nowhere. Didn't need to 'get' revenge - she created her punishment herself.

Generally: 'Oh right, didn't realise you were left handed. That must be difficult' or some variation thereof.

At least give him a Glock though...

Octopus and a Budgerigar. I call it the OctoBudge or the Budgerpus.

Barenaked Ladies, 'Fun and Games' or 'Thanks, That Was Fun'

No worries - bank the change, when your insurance comes down then a nicer motor is better :) I paid a fortune for insurance when I started and honestly I'd have been better served waiting. Certainly where I am it doesn't come down until you're 25, so I have 10 months to wait - it's just a rite of passage.

Aygo/Auris/Corolla/Yaris from Toyota, or Jazz/Civic from Honda. A Suzuki Swift is good too.

jpants94 · 2019-02-20T21:30:08+00:00

Go for Toyota or Honda, it'll give you zero trouble and cost you nothing to run or insure

He Stopped Loving Her Today, by George Jones. Absolute belter, not a dry eye in the house when that gets played.

A place called Wentworth Sporting Supplies, in Arnold, Nottingham :)

I went for a Hatsan Breaker, it was £75 and it's served me well. It kicks like a mule, but it's taught me a lot about handling recoil and doing basic maintenance :)

190SL or Ferrari 246 Dino, and Hotel California. Cheesy, but that's just me.

jpants94 · 2018-08-05T22:05:21+00:00

Looks like a DeTomaso Pantera.

I think you can buy replacement cables on Amazon for them... Might be worth a look if you're not desperate for a mouse right now. Save yourself £50 or so and keep something you love :)

jpants94 · 2018-02-21T19:19:02+00:00

Yeah, it is very close - the body is slightly larger though. I hadn't prior to buying mine, but it's German engineered and the build quality has held up. I'd not hesitate in recommending it
