Anti-Basel thread

Well the forum is getting wrapped up . . .

So glad I will be sitting on a beach next week with my BLNR and not reading troll rumor posts, fake photoshop "leaks" and then the whining, crying, complaining of those who throw a tantrum whenever they cannot get what they want.

Good luck to all!

Great pic! We're going kiteboarding tomorrow if the wind is strong enough.



In the end what really matters is that you....

Enjoy Your Time

Lmao. Why waste your energy on it? If you don’t like it, let it go?

Clearly, you are living the dream. Forget the stuff you don’t like and enjoy the wonderful stuff that you do like.

Amen!! I stopped clicking on the rumor/troll posts a long time ago. It's become ridiculous. I can't wait for Basel to be over so everything can return to normal.

Interesting.

I’m so rarely even over there. I tend to stay around here and a few other smaller sub-forums.

But I kind of like the excitement of Basel. I should maybe go check it out.

I can’t wait for next week.

What happens if the teaser on youtube actually turns out to be a GMT on jubilee? Maybe sell the no date???? Maybe.... I know it's going to happen. You know it's going to happen. Just let it be free. Free like little bird.

No idea, I don't look at YouTube.

The only thing that is going to happen is that I will be in Jamaica for the next 7 days so I am out.

Good luck all!

Well I am back, sadly and did not miss a thing. Perhaps that should tell me something.

For those afraid to wear their watches, my BLNR did the entire week solo.

Sun, sand, pool, beach, scuba, snorkel, oil, rum, sunscreen, spa, sauna, steam room, dinner, bar, airport, airplane, sailing and yes I even changed time zones.
