I bought a new 'bedside alarm clock'


and a very lovely way to wake up it is too.

Love these - have an R2i and R4i in White, but the older R4 with the removable remote. Great sound but also great to look at

It's bonus time. The mortgage and savings have had their share, I've put a grand aside as spunk money.



But there's nothing I want to buy!!!!


Aaaaaarrrgh!!!!!!!!

[giblet]

A grand and nothing to spend it on?

[CorbynForTheBin]

There's nothing I really want, it's not like my house is full of trinkets either!

I have a 26 inch TV ffs!

not easy to learn to ride but sooo cool once you get the hang of it. No where to ride it in theory as such things are bound to be illegal on the roads/pavements and you just need to get past the wife with the "you will break you bloody neck" comments...

Bit of a frivolous bargain here... Got a message earlier from my brother that he had seen a GoPro accessory pack reduced in Costco - so told him to get me one... Turns out it is a bumper pack of stuff that is over £100 in Argos, and was reduced from £79 to just £23! It contains Chest Strap Mount; Monopod; Suction Cup Mount; Bike Mount; Head Strapt; Wrist Strap; Float Bobber; Mini Tripod; Set of Screws and Adapter, and all in a case...

Given that I'm not going to Costco any time soon, that's mighty tempting...

I have no need for a 1960's travelling bar & games set. Nor can I play gin rummy. But I think it'll be very useful in the Land Rover.

Ooo. The want is strong with that. Where did you find that?

Etsy.co.uk. There are a few hard suitcase-style ones on Ebay but they're all in the US and 4x the price before shipping. The Etsy one was the only decent one I could find in the UK and was a bargain. Am chuffed to bits with it.

Did a trial-fit with some booze last night:



Summer camping, sorted!

Hmm, all the camera accessories are making me want to buy a camera! I don't know why, there's nothing I do that I think could be improved by filming it!

So, these SJcams... why so cheap and why such a difference in price on ebay?

I caved in, couldn't resist all the accessories so bought the camera to go with them!

I saw a couple of businessmen using these in Hong Kong. Neat way to shorten your commute time.
