Looks great.

I happened to be talking to a guy from TomTom the other day and he was saying that they did a range of sports watches. Not encountered them myself but he reckoned they were good.

Happy running!

I read this and visualised a laboratory for making chocolate - something like a cross between a chemistry lab and Willy Wonka's factory! I will admit to a little disappointment when I realised what you meant!

But a chocolate Labrador is a billion times better than real chocolate, surely?! :-D

Glad you got it sorted, what did you do with the 305? Get your 25 notes back or put a hammer on it? I wouldn't mind your latest acquisition it would go with my car..😁

Thats unfortunate your garmin didnt work. I heard the Tom Tom is great and you can change the straps !!

Not being one to hang around, I have already sold the Garmin but that was an experiment worth doing.

Sadly, after the syncing problems, it put me off their setup and products so made my watch buying decision that much easier.

This TOMTOM one does away with the need for a chest strap as the HRM is built in.

It arrives Friday and I can't wait !!

Now, time to get out for a run !!

Not what you're looking for?
