Retro F1 t-shirts 3 for £12.50 delivered.

http://www.grandprixlegends.com/motorsport-and-f1-...

Listed at £7.49 each but you get £9 off at checkout.
Thats a mighty good spot. Thanks for that. Got Hesketh, Parlamat and STP March biggrin
Will be interesting to see if GP legends honour it as I ordered six on friday which came in at £25 with delivery.

Tried to order another 3 a minute ago as presents and the discount at the till no longer applies, £22.50 for 3.

I'm awaiting an email smile

Let us know what they say; my order didn't go through for some reason, and I only just noticed. So tried again today but the price had gone up (or maybe it was a glitch that they fixed?)

Needed some new hiking boots and these Brasher Hillwalker 2 are perfect :



What's frivolous I hear you ask? The additional two pairs I bought smile At £60 it felt rude not to smile
Where did you find them for £60?

EDIT - I did some googling and it looks like it was Blacks.

My HP Tablet arrived today, thank you to whoever posted the £79 deal. I'm very impressed and although not entirely frivolous I certainly didn't need it smile

How is the fit? i.e. did you order a size large than your normal shoes?

Glad I'm not the only 1! Missed my chance at being an extra in the last film due to a damned uni exam which I failed anyway!

Can't believe how small the scout looks next to the Stormtrooper. Still amazed it fits him, with hindsight I'd have probably been better with the scout and him the stormtrooper but I've harboured a desire to be a stormtrooper since I was a very small girl biggrin.
Need to put a bit of padding in mine now as my head is a bit small so needs customising now. Pleased with the builds so far though and very therapeutic.

Exactly the same here in every way. Thanks from me too.
Quite a chunky little thing isn't it!

Waiting with baited breath for mine to be delivered, im hoping i will be able to copy the delphi car diagnostic software off of my windows laptop onto it, if i can it will be a very usefull bit of kit! If not it will at least save me carrying my laptop to lectures!

Mine has arrived. Chunkier that I expected but nicely made. Not had time to play yet but will see how it goes later.

Those who wanted the HP stream 7 may be worth looking at the linx 7 as its £60 on eBay. Same processor and clockspeed, same size batter only a 2mp camera but has HDMI out

Tempted for vagcom.


I hope windows opt free OS for desktops after this tablet trial.

Thanks for this Bazza, I've given this a go and will report back

I usually take between an 8 and a 9 across different brands and style of shoe. I ordered 8's and they fit perfectly with a thick pair of hiking socks. Christened them with a three mile walk today and they are very comfortable.
