Last week we had a bowling night for celebrating the end of the year. We split into 2 teams and had a friendly match. It was the first time the students visited the XL Bowling establishment in La Chaux-de-Fonds. It is a great place to hang out and bowl, play old school arcades, billiards and ping pong. They also had a great restaurant, which we had dinner at. For sure the school will be back for more fun.

On Saturday the students took a trip to Dombresson, the city where Mr. Simonin's bookstore is located. This is the first time some students visited the store and they were psyched to see so many watchmaking books and tools. Mr. Simonin even showed the students some of his hidden gems, such as some rare tools and some super rare, first edition, leatherback, ancient, collector's edition books.

Le Locle has just become a megacity due to the opening of a brand new supermarket, Aldi. The new Aldi has opened right beside the school and will most likely be where the students hang out for lunch from now on. This is the best thing that has happened in Le Locle for some time. We are super excited for the grand opening.

Today marks the last day of the calendar year that the students will be attending school. Tomorrow they start their winter holidays! Check back on January 4th where we will be back and fully recharged for some more epic watchmaking!
Nice ingold faise there. Maybe you'll make a article about it and usage sometime.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ovidiu, not many people know what it is called or what it is used for anymore. Yes its a good idea to make an article about it since its hard to find information about this tool.
