Reminds me of a pic I took with my Sagaris and a model of it. Yours is better though.

Clearing out the back of the barn at work today, putting a load of scrap together and I found a conrod. Placed it next to a jerry can for comparison.

Where can I get me one of those tiny jerry cans?

I'm pretty sure I didn't need to pre-order this, so technically I could still cancel it.
Already have two PS Vitas, PS3 and PS4 but the PS4 remote play on bedroom TV is too good to ignore.

A Fitbit Flex



Frivolous because I don't really do a whole lot of exercise. I do sleep badly though, and it's meant to somehow track your sleep patterns as well as your fitness activity.

I've been using a flex since New Year, very good, and I've had great results using it with Myfitnesspal and the Fitbit Aria wifi scales.

I didn't realise it integrates with MyFitnessPal. Thanks - I'll look into that. thumbup

Definitely having one of these. But disappointing that it'll only remote play on other tvs at 720p.

You know you can use ps3 controllers with it? Any idea if you can use them whilst remote playing, say, FIFA? I only have 2 ps4 controllers and don't plan on buying any more, but have a few ps3 ones lying about, could get some massive games of fifa on the go when mates are over.
Yes, the japanese bundle comes with a ds3 controller so in theory that would work.

yes Works really well, steps and activity from your fitbit drop straight into MFP, so if you go for a long walk for example, or a run, or whatever, the calories you burn transfer across showing how many you've earnt and how many you've got left.

I bought a packet of that a while ago. It's far too useful to be considered frivolous.

Hmmm, is it better to order this or a new cable?

My feet have been eating shoes in the space of 4 months and at £40 a pop I thought I would do something about it.


Bought oliver sweeny shoes and a set of Jeffrey Wests way under normal price... thank you TKMaxx, you have some uses after all.
