Your frivolous purchases, stuff you don't need...

[DoubleSix]

Not sure taking down some shelves justifies this little lot, but everyone loves power tools!

These are the 18v LXT Li-ion bad boys...

Next on the frivolous purchase list is a power kite :-)

You definitely need one of those. I've got one. Bought it June last year.

It's been out of the packet once.

On a day when it wasn't windy enough to take off.

[Slink]

having found 75 quid i feel the need for some frivolity.

it doesn't have to come to the exact 75 quid. it could be 40 or 55, or even 37.50.

i just don't know what, but i do know, no torches, have enough of those.

so, over to you.

Or two...

Just think how useful it'd be in the garden

[Slink]

ooh now that is good, as my garden does need a good 'machetying'

thats on the list.

any more ideas?

damn, I'm no good at finding frivolous things on the net.

[MrB1obby]

You could buy the other one to remove the handle of your old one. Then use the new one to remove a tree with which to make a new handle.

See, useful and money saving! Saves you having to buy another machete

Oh god that makes sense, there's also a tree which needs 'trimming' in the back garden

[Alfachick]

Not one, not two but THREE bed pans.

Why?

Magazine rack in the bathroom (obviously). I have yet to hang them up due to the fact I didn't really think through HOW exactly I was going to attach them to the wall

They are still sitting gathering dust in the bathroom at the moment.

Any suggestions on how to hang them welcome.

This has to count.I have no need for it (or for the one in the garage in front of it).They just make me laugh as they are so small and stupid.The other one is a bit crusty and is a proper panel van type sporting a 996cc engine, this one is a 6 seater 1.3 16 valve.With the seats removed, it could be an Evo beater.

I wouldn't mind one of these. 28 mph electric pushbike.

Damn you! Now I NEED a Quick 2 System, skillet, Alpine cook set, gas cooker and finally... Titanium utensils!

No, no no, real PH'ers don't cook on gas, we use petrol

When I used to use gas canisters it meant I always had to carry a spare, but with this I just keep a length of windscreen washer pipe under the bike seat and just siphon some petrol out of the tank when the bottle runs low.

What's it like driving a car whose steering axis is behind your arse?

[GC8]

Whats it like driving a vehicle which uses your femurs as its principal crumple zone?

Jesus Christ, that post made me cringe

[GC8]

The reason that I wouldnt ever buy one, not even the Subaru dressed up like a VW Type 2...

Did you see the episode of Fifth Gear a few years ago where fat Tom crashed one on an oval track, at a modest speed, and broke his leg?

That made me shudder.

[SystemParanoia]
