    P.S. Thanks to those that have sent kind words. It's becoming quite hard to keep up, and I do struggle responding across all the platforms that everyone uses, so if you do want to get hold of me, the best way is to use the contact form on Time 4A Pint.

    Great episode - William is a tremendous guest!

    I only wish we could've been privy to more of your 4 hours of discussion.

    I had to listen to this one twice - I normally listen in the car or while running and then check out the pics later, but this is one that is best to have a screen up to follow along. Great stuff @tyrantlizardrex and @Spacefruit !:thumbsup:

    Thanks Alexis, glad to hear we had your undivided attention! ;)

    Would love to head over... will see if something can be pulled together when funds are flowing a little easier! :D

    Thanks chap - yes he is. :thumbsup:

    As is always the way, there are things that are fun to talk about one-on-one but not for a wider audience! :coffee:

    Cheers Pat. :thumbsup:

    Thanks Andy! :thumbsup:

    We covered a lot of ground, and to be honest, whilst editing, I kept referring to my notes, and the pictures to try and work out what we were talking about. ::shy::

    I just have to echo what's already been said: I love this episode with William, and every other episode of T4aP I've had the pleasure to listen to... I've missed a few, and I'm definitely going back to enjoy the others, and then some twice!

    I'm not really a Speedmaster WIS, but William and Chris made this one especially interesting. Thanks, guys!

    This one made me a bit sad.
    Sad about not having people like you around, daily, sad about missing out on having a chat with William in June.

    Overall though...I again can't thank you enough for a beautiful, witty and entertaining hour!

    Thanks Doug.

    I, like you am in no way a Speedmaster WIS... but sitting with William, you do catch Speedmaster fever a bit... and getting to handle these watches first hand is both a joy, and a privilege, even if they're far beyond my reach!

    Oh Ralf! I'm sorry for making you sad!

    The days when I get to sit down and record with people, or host events, or even catch up with any of the guys locally and grab a coffee or a beer, are the best days for sure. :)

    Glad you enjoyed it, even if we made you a little sad. :thumbsup:

    I can imagine that, the GTG in June was one of the nicest and most exciting days in 2017, as said, a bunch of excellent people with stories to tell, I will try hard to be there in October again!
