Oh dear, poor Jack. He seems to have a season ticket at the vet's right now.

We went to Bath and had a look at some Patek Phillipe watches.

Through a window.
New to me, I just had a look at their website
Not my kind of thing, I prefer a clean, slim, elegant watch.When in Poole we were looking at the boats in the Sunseeker yard. Just big, crass, plastic gin palaces for the stupidly (and newly) rich to show off in.
Not saying I wouldn't like the money to be able to make such buying choices

Boat is just an acronym for Break Out Another Thousand. Takes money away from the good things in life, like cycling, which actually paid for itself and the bills at times around here. That being said, I used to love having a boat, back in the day, but it was just a little fibreglass sailboat. I lived only a few blocks from a big, navigable river which broadened out into lakes along its course back then. Then I got married. The end.New to me, I just had a look at their website

I rarely wear a watch so even a cheap one isn't worth buying.

If I had that amount of money to afford 1 of those things I would much rather spend it on travelling around the world. Those things cost a fortune to look after, crew to pay etc..

Mundane IT/nerd News. May require translation for normal people.
Have installed two new graphics cards in the newer Mac Pro- one cheap, ancient (2009!) but fully Mac-compatible one (GeForce GT120) for troubleshooting etc, and one brand spanking new one (Radeon RX 580 8GB) which though not made for a Mac, works just nicely with macOS High Sierra as Apple is using the same chip in new iMacs and also selling cards in an external GPU kit for developers. Black screen on startup, springs to splendid life when drivers load. It wasn't exactly slow before, but it's got a couple of metaphorical turbos now. Need a new monitor now to really show what it can do....

In bike terms, I've gone from 9 speed Sora and a pair of entry level wheels to Ultegra 8000 11 speed and Fulcrum Racing 3s. Less go-faster stripes, more go fasterI must admit that I didn't understand a single word of that but it all sounds very impressive. Well done

The filling for my meat and potato pie is cooking out and I have a batch of leek and potato soup going too. Aldi veg really is top notch.
