Chipolata then!
Haha yes. Chip was considered as a name, as was biggie smalls and casserole, but as a potter fan, and with him having a rather long bottom as well, Neville fit much better and tbh Neville the devil is entirely appropriate right now. My daughter has one who’s five this year and he is such a character we fell in love with him so decided to go for it. Even our older dog is coming around to him slowly. In other frivolity my daughter has just returned from a Disney Paris trip with the haunted mansion portrait for me that I couldn’t get before Christmas. It’s bigger than I thought….. a lot bigger. Tomorrow I need to figure out where on earth it’s going to go

Fantastic. I love Dachshunds they do bark a bit and are a bit bloody minded but are also awesome.
My miniature wire haired was a superb pet, and certainly the boss of the two standard short hairs, all sadly gone now.

Yes, my daughters is a bit of a swine, but quite adorable. He's stubborn and loud but extremely loving. He does not like Neville one bit at present, hopefully they will become friends as Nev gets a bit older and stops trying to hang off his tail.My miniature wire haired was a superb pet, and certainly the boss of the two standard short hairs, all sadly gone now.
I left him unsupervised.....
Yes it was a bargain as it's never been this cheap on Amazon, but the cost of the stuff I need to now completely rejig the star wars room to accommodate it (high shelving etc, new desk etc) probably negates what he saved...

With the amount of trailer and trackday wheels I currently have, let alone road car stuff, Man Maths has struck again! Just need to get it all set up now....
Not frivolous then but very good purchase, do you have to get it calibrated for balancing? 3 phase or 240?

I think I'm going to have to remove all the space wasting glass cabinets in the room and put some high level shelving around the top of the area for helmets etc, freeing up floor space for it and the pinball machine. Worryingly, if it gives me the space I think it will, he can probably fit another cab in....I'll worry about it next week
I frivolled!!!
But good lord it was a bargain....
Went into Farm Foods for something totally unrelated, saw this, reduced from £399 to £299. Now even at £399 this was a total steal as it's the lifting bowl professional version that retails around the £500/£600 mark, but for £300! AND I had a stack of FF vouchers bringing it down to £275.
Now to bake bread

I've been looking for a cordless wet vac for my car, long story, don't ask, found several which as is the way now, don't have a battery or charger, found a really good Ryobi one, now any sane person would just buy the vac and a battery and charger, but no, ooooohhhh, no, no, no, i now have these,
and of course the original wet vac that i need on the way!!!
Now i have no need of the drill as i have a pretty good Stanley FatMax 18V hammer drill driver already, that's now redundant!!!

Did you see that Friend's script that went up for auction a month or so ago? It was from the two part London set one, came with a crew jacket and a few bits. It was guided at £600-£800 and I foolishly believed if it went for around that I'd take a stab. Registered, logged on to the online auction.......Opened at £21,000 :ROFL:
Safe to say I won't be wasting time even looking at another of these until that lottery money comes in

I always watch their auctions. The problem is if its a reasonably displayable item and instantly recognisable then they prices go way above my budget.They had a UK auction last year which was probably the best option as shipping costs would have been reduced.
Love Propstore but it's a dangerous place. Him indoors has a small Fett obsession and one of the most memorable scenes for him from his childhood was the cloud city dinner.
We were at an even some years ago and Propstore were there, was amazed to find a call sheet for that scene so bought it for him. Had a few other call sheet/artwork bits from them over the years.
Off to Disney for the first time this year next week, managed to squirrel away a nice little sum to spend, so expect me to turn into a human whirlwind in the Phantom Manor store

That’s a good price. If you feel the need to step up a gear from there, here’s my 10qt Bear Varimixer But good lord it was a bargain....

Got mine free from work! I can't recall why. I think it was some competition I wasn't aware I'd entered....can't complain. There was a choice of prizes and this was something I'd wanted for a while. The ice cream maker is a good toy But good lord it was a bargain....
