Rx4Time 1,472 Posted March 24, 2019 I dunno what you are talking about. All of my watches are well constructed, and function properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenjaminButton 149 Posted March 24, 2019 This forum isn’t about DHGate and the little bit of RWG that tolerates it is for VIP members only - so if you want to discover anything about the messy side then sign up and more will be revealed otherwise it’s a sealed lips situation. Who the fuck is Lucy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadApple 13,081 Posted March 24, 2019 I'm Lucy at weekends. He has signed up so why is he not looking in the special Gate section? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BenjaminButton 149 Posted March 24, 2019 ‘My Bad’ as the kids say, fecking kids, as I’m using crapatalk and didn’t see he was VIP. Perhaps this is a weekender beer o’clock post? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Junior88 388 Posted March 24, 2019 Those of you "Across the pond" so to speak might not get the Lucy reference. "Lucy" is Lucille Ball. From "I Love Lucy". That show died a LONG time ago (1957 to be exact, fuck I'm old) and the OP is imitating Ricky Riccardo from that show. (Please note that 1957 is well before MY time too. @Sergio, the Gate sells cheap stuff. Occasionally you'll find a diamond in the rough, and I myself have been fairly lucky there. It's a good place to buy a $100 watch (that price point tends to be higher end on the Gate) and see if you like it, before spending more on a higher end rep. Hope this helps.

Thank you.Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz - of a certain age and you’ll know it well from repeats this side of the pond. Great show - I loved it. Unfortunately with age comes the deterioration of the little grey cells (another tv reference) and that results in slower or no powers of deduction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rek001 12 Posted March 24, 2019 DHGate is sometimes a waste of time, you have to spend hours typing in vague search words. That being said, I just stumbled upon a decent quartz Patek Aquanaut chronograph (orange strap) which I ordered and am looking forward to getting, probably in about 3 weeks.

Well before my time, but great TV. I never said anyone was retarded!! I just meant it, in the same way that if someone from Europe made a reference to, say, Fawlty Towers, I would never have gotten it. I know OF the show, but never watched it. AND I love Lucy is ancient. Funniest part is, I could never stand most of those shows. I can tolerate I dream of Jeannie, but hated Lucy, and Hogan's heroes, and MASH, all of it. No idea why. Probably why I was a voracious reader as a young 'un. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our forum is based on Fawlty towers Strangely as a very young child I remember the Sky comedy Channel used to show an episode of McHales Navy before it shut down for the night I used to sneak up to watch it and get caught because I was laughing so much.
