Been home for two hours and only just stopped shivering! Been at work since 0800 outside in the cold with the benefit of a keen wind adding to the fun. Sense of humour failure around 1600 when feeling in hands was lost. Left Eastbourne at 18:15, car outside temp was showing as -5 C.
Back with a real Casio today, an old G-2500 from Israel where it was used by an IDF member. Worn but still like the look of it. It may not show too well in the picture but it is a dark military green
I've been red-carded by Roger the Post, tomorrow the sorting office is open to 20:00 so I will make the effort to be back in time to claim whatever the package may contain - is it a new watch from Japan, a new watch from the Antipodes, two pre-owned from the States or the one I bought on eBay yesterday while working on a station ? (damn those smartphones, make spending money too easy)
Got a mail from the vendor about thirty minutes after I had bought it to say it had been packed and posted and was on its way from Guernsey!
