I was at Broughty Ferry beer festival today, so I will definitely not be doing any watch repairing tonight (hic). :-)

Dan B. should have been here with some of his brews!

Ok. I'm officially jealous.

I had some koppabergs in the fridge for tonight but my wife has had me driving her to see her friends so no buzz for me :(

I'll post the date early next year.

It's held in the beer garden in the Fishermans Tavern just down from the lifeboat shed. All the beers are donated from various breweries and the proceeds go the the Lifeboat Association.

Camra have three festivals in Newcastle. Spring, Summer and Winter but various Wetherspoons have something going on somewhere all the time so I can spend my 50p CAMRA tokens.  Our main real ale festival is at Northumbria Uni and is massive - hundreds of beers.  I have to say that I have had some good ales at the festivals but also one that tasted a bit like Covonia Cough Medicine - 11.5% and really overhopped to get rid of the sweetness needed for fermenting the beer to get the high proofage. 

 

Oddly I usually feel ok the next day but the after effects if you can call them that, due to consumption of lots of yeasty beer give my wife great cause for complaint - I am sure we have all been there, usually without gas masks cos we are real ale supping men.

 

Off to the states soon to pick up a shed load of accutron goodies (including a tester) from EBay.com that I have had sent to my son in LA, will keep up to date on my IPad hopefully.

 

Cheers Chaps

Will not be going to Disney but will go to Universal Studios.  Went a few years back and it was great.  Will shell out for front of line passes and hopefully see what we want in a day.

For me, Universal Studios was the highlight of the whole trip - I loved it. There was not many people there when we went and so it was very relaxing. Plus I met the Apollo 13 crew but they didn't say much :D

      Epilame / Fixodrop

      By VWatchie · Posted

      Oh well, if Master @nickelsilver says it's the way to go, then it is the way to go! I stand corrected! 🫡 Are there any other places where you're supposed to remove the epilame from the contact point of rubbing? I don't think so! Thanks for the effort @Neverenoughwatches, much appreciated! 🙂👍

      If you're seeking advice for your "Harvard GSD" MArch II application essays, I'd recommend taking a thoughtful approach. Reflect deeply on your experiences, passions, and goals, and tailor your essays to showcase your unique perspective and potential contributions to the program. As for resources, I recently stumbled upon a gret platform for essays, and I must say, it's been quite helpful. Their selection of pre-written essays covers a wide range of topics, and their professional writers can also assist with custom essays tailored to your specific needs. Check out their offerings here: https://essaypro.com/essays-for-sale. Remember, authenticity is key in your application essays. Good luck!

      For clarity and ease of testing, I redid that diagram, flipping the circuit to match the layout of the physical watch.

      Hello, Thanks for the reply. The old jewel will get pushed out from the "outside" which is the dial side. The new jewel will get pressed in from the inside (shown below) which is the movement side, correct?     And the old jewel and spring will get pushed from the is the "outside" which is the dial side. Thank you very much for the information. I will take out the KIF spring and save it. Will update when the new jewel is in place!   Regards, Joe

      It's a little circlip style retaining clip to keep the pinion from riding up out of position.
