I'll have to get some for barn fridge. I have that dumb gluten issue so I can't have anything fun.

I don't know what he is. But they have lots of exotic birds in there. Some time you'll see a sick eagle in there getting worked on.

Great news! Fedex tried to deliver today and I wasn't there but instead of having them messing around with me I took the initiative of calling them myself and ask them to leave the package in Montreal, I'll go pick up my watch on Thursday night!

Lisa when are you off to San Francisco? Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair.

I should set up a calendar system so if anyone is away from the Coffeeshop, say on holiday, we can make a note of it. Ya know so we don't all worry.

Apart from if it's Carl, not sure he'll be missed.

Went to my NOMOS ad today and tried on the Tangomat automatic and the Tangente, superb watches, incredible finishing quality for a very affordable price.
I was actually there for the wooden watchmakers loupe but they didn't have one unfortunately, so I've ordered one.

Wooden loupe you say? I'd love to have something like that!

I have one with a small clip to put it on my glasses as well as one with a metal wire to go around my head, however, this one is made out of plastic.

Glad to know you had a great time at Nomos.

Just made an appointment to get a haircut. I wanted to let my hair grow but, alas, it's starting to be quite a pain in the neck to work on a watch with all my hair in my face and they're too short to be tied...

The pony tail will have to wait I guess...

Carl, I had long hair from about 17-21. Not really long enough for a ponytail, it was a pain in the ****. It was the fashion and quite a few of my mates had the same.

Then at 21 Mum said, you can't go to job interviews with that hair, get it cut. Hol snap.

Well if you ask me I think this length of hair suits you very well Wes!

I hear you about mothers and haircuts but I must say mine is actually the opposite, I let my hair grow even longer than what I have right now once and she told me she really liked it, same thing with the beard. My girlfriend tells me the same thing but at some point it's just not convenient I'm afraid so I have to go to the barber...

...Oh, I shaved the beard as well...soon enough I'll be completely hairless on my head...
