So my 7p card never turned up.

I have raised it straight through PayPal this time.

I can't believe I was stupid enough to think it would come...

Mine either.
Mine arrived ok, it was going to go in my PHSS present but I decided to keep it smile
Got mine. Still waiting for my panda money box though...
Mine turned up.
Cancel my last. Just turned up now, won't do pound coins, only 0.1 to 1 yuan coins! hehe

I bought Project Cars for a friend for Christmas and wanted to ensure he wouldn't beat me so had to buy myself a gaming chair, wheel and pedals..

They reckon...

M12™ REDLITHIUM™ 2.0 Compact Battery - 8hr (Low), 4.5hr (Medium), 3.25hr (High)

You can buy a higher capacity battery though.

Used it for the first time today for a couple of hours on high and it's down to half. I was sweating a bit towards the end though!

Very pleased with it.

What did you use for the heat pads?
Mine's got several meters of teflon coated wire sewn in to it rather than using heat pads.

I've wanted one of these gorgeous sculptures for years after seeing one in an online gallery. On a trip to Edinburgh I finally found a shop that sells them!
It's an art deco model of a Lockheed Constellation flying over a globe, a copy of the ones produced in the 30s for travel agents' desks. Its made from cast abd polished aluminium

Mine sounds like it says 'goats milk'... very odd, but the little one loves it.

I bought the helicopter about 4 hours after buying a Parrot Minidrone Night from Apple... only for the fecking thing to go mental in the park and fly off never to be seen again. Currently taking that up with them.

When I got GearBest into the Thread Collective Conscious the idea was to make them bankrupt by sending out hundreds of 7p credit card tools. Not to draw attention to the other stuff they sell.

My tool came yesterday. It's st. smile

yeah that 1p tool is st, but it has ended up costing me over £100 all in, received the Panda money box yesterday!

The RC stuff is amazing, similar planes in Model shops here are near on £200!

Also got an SJcam4000 ( go pro) it is brilliant, all for £30
