Subby's off on his first holiday....
Hi guys,
Come Sunday (Saturday for most of you), the whole family goes off to Lake Taupo for a 5-day holiday. Naturally, I'll be taking along the SS Sub while the 2 blingy models can sit at home in the safe!! If I can't find internet connection in Taupo, there's a strong possibility you guys won't see me for 5 days starting Sunday. Please don't fret too much.....at least the forum server will move faster!!! You can read a bit about Lake Taupo here.... http://www.laketauponz.com/taupo.html Cheers - JJ

Have a good one, we'll miss you . Taupo is a cool place. You should check out the Bungy and see if Subby likes heights.

Have a great time JJ!
Look forward to hearing from you when you get back. By the way, do you feel the platty is to flashy for everday use? I am thinking about getting one because I feel my TTsub is a bit to flashy. What do you think pal? |

Platty is very beautiful but remember it's a HIGH maintenance watch. Scratch that Pt. bezel and you're looking at mega bucks to fix it. JJ
