Hi John,

Thanks mate.I have been around but not as much as I would like to.

We have been real busy with the intense part of Wade's Chemo and there were a few setbacks but we are on track and he has moved onto a maintainance protocal.This means a lot less hospital trips.

I promise to email some pics soon.

Aaron

Hi Otis,

I ended up getting it off a local here in Brisbane who got it at Monards in Melbourne He bought it and then was offered a Daytona.As it was only several weeks old and NIB I jumped at the chance to grab it.

Thanks guys for comments,I think thats the best part of getting a new watch,showing it off to you guys.
