  You did, and are doing, a great job!
  From my point of view it also looks like you're quite organised and really get stuff done.

  @Hefty that also looks like a great house!

  Love the brass mesh.
  Cats are one of the reasons I went with ATC SCM with their heavy metal style grilles, but the night club system look is not for everyone.

• Cargo Bikes

  Saw someone with the same model this week, rider and kid in front seemed happy. It's pretty long.
  Forks on this one look funny, and it certainly is no R&M, but I like affordable cargo bikes.

  It's a funny combo, out exploring but still important to know which day it is.
  If it wasn't for the box and papers and locally the strangeness would put me off.

  @kjlem you could say this about all the oyster case varieties? But yes, it's not exactly the most sparkly example.
  @bobble papers are from '99.
  Way better than the ranger, I agree.

  On the 34mm oyster case chat, what do you guys think about this one?
  Tried the Tudor heritage 36 recently, was underwhelmed by the black and the silver was somehow too flashy.
  But I somehow want a sports Tudor, and
  This is local, box and papers, the combo of explorer style dial and date window is fun.
  And 34 looks good on my wrist.

  I am a bit touchy on that subject as I have someone in the family who probably is THE example of neighbour from hell. He has a mental condition that is untreatable, and its not fun.

  Are fruitcake and loon adequate words to use for people that might have mental health issues?

  We're on October/December 25 now.
  I think the process is transparent and probably makes sense. But paying a non refundable deposit for a watch that I will get in more than 3 years is not for me.
  Someone want an anordain 2025/early 2026?
