Именно... Те и от българското знаме и революционните ни символи направиха същото...

Call me old-fashioned, but I hate any form of VAR in any sport. I actually enjoyed random mistakes and the arguments over them. 😂 They made the sports a bit more unpredictable, which is not a bad thing in my book.

Е, този мач никога няма да го забравя - жалко, че Гришо така и не успя да разгърне целия си потенциал. И днес като играта на Алкараз на моменти си мислех как основната разлика между него и Гришо е че рухва психически доста по-рядко и често успява да се върне в играта. Днес направи истинско чудо!

Ever since the country went bankrupt in 1997. At first it was 1 BGN = 1 Deutsche Mark and was updated for the Euro afterwards. (1.96 BGN = 1 Euro) So, we have our own currency only on paper…

It wasn’t easy getting here for us as well - even now pro-Russian parties are trying sabotage the process and are running massive disinformation campaigns against the euro. Tough times.

We have been using the Euro in a way for 28 years (fixed exchange rate), so I doubt things will be that bad. Time will tell!

Pretty sure he’s an expat from Serbia, so I don’t see anything concerning here.

In my experience it works great with them. No promoted results really changes what you get in terms of results. :-)

Е, на мен идеята ми дойде като гледах един пич да бяха в парка с тениска "Баси Кефа" (по бирената линия). Бирата е добра, но името и е направо велико. :D

But I get your point - I was also quite disappointed in the past with "The Sword of Truth" series, yet eventually I got used to their version of the story and the characters and even enjoyed the show at the end. I didn't quite get to this point for WoT, but perhaps S3 is really better as some claim.

I had also invested a lot of time reading the books, but for me this doesn't imply that I'll like any adaptation. I was so frustrated after the first reason (and all the changes they had made to the story) that this actually drove me to re-read the books. 😅

Indeed. I've had plenty of such experience. (mostly with NB, where at some point the sizes seemed to be assigned at random)

Good to know. Perhaps I'll watch Season 3 down the road. I have serious doubts an expensive show like WoT can be saved by fan campaigns, though.

I've been often pondering about getting a winder myself, but my wife already thinks my watches (or rather their boxes) are taking up too much space at home. :D So, I do a lot of manual winding, as I typically rotate my my watches every week. (e.g. last one I wore my Sinn 566, now my PRX)

I did this twice already, and I guess that's the main reason I hate the TV show. It was very far from my vision for the world of WOT and the characters there.
I didn't like the changes made to the story and I felt the cast was mostly weak and their acting mediocre, but that's just me.

I stand corrected! What did you like about the show?
comment in response to

Totally agree!
In the past I was kind of obsessed with mechanical movements, but these days I appreciate the usefulness of (solar) quartz and being able to just pick up a watch without having to set the time. (I've got one quartz GS and 3 solar G-Shocks that I totally love)

I think the quality of On dropped when they became a mainstream brand. I'm a big tennis fan and I got interested in them because Roger Federer is a co-owner of On. (I even have his "The Roger" tennis shoes :D ) A few friends complained about the quality as well, so I'm sure it's a common problem.

Thanks for info! I love their model names - "one more" and "get lost" are brilliant! :D Will check them out.

I guess you can go to 100 chars then. :D

I guess I should try out some other brands - I've mostly worn NB and Ecco in recent years. Decent comfort and fairly durable (most of the time), but On were definitely better for me.
