I wonder whether people in the South ever frivolously purchase unwanted ordnance from other people in the South?
Eh?Afraid not I may use it for 5 mins some point in the far future.

I have zero need for it. I had one on long-term loan years ago and I haven't needed one since I returned it. But I NEED one!

Gotta have the right gear for 5mins use every couple of years.
I started this thread in the scale models section, but I have just realised that it qualifies beautifully as a frivolous purchase!
I bought a copy of the 1985 Tamiya Radio Contol guide, which I had back in the day when I was 13. Bought entirely frivolously as a nostalgia trip. The price for a magazine which cost a few quid in 1985? A snip at 65 pounds

Fabulous! I used to love the Tamiya catalogues when we were lads, despite not being able to afford the actual models themselves!I bought a copy of the 1985 Tamiya Radio Contol guide, which I had back in the day when I was 13.

Shame we through them all out not realising they would become so valuable in the future!

Nice buy.
Simply awesome - I've lusted after a copy of that for many many years ChocolateFrog said:
Not *entirely* frivolous though - they just seem to keep going up in price
I needed a new flashlight to be kept in my van, so got a cheap and cheerful Cree thing from Amazon. I then realised that perhaps one on my keyring would be useful, so I’ve also got a Nitecore TIP as a frivolous purchase

360 lumens on a keyring, amazing.

Awesome. I was lucky enough to have the Tamiya Lamborghini Cheetah when I was a kid, I sold it after a few years and even now I kick myself whenever I think of that.I bought a copy of the 1985 Tamiya Radio Contol guide, which I had back in the day when I was 13.

£162 for a few inches of stainless cable!
I thought the same but then again, I didn't want to update any delicate flowers It has now arrived and sadly it doesn't pluck the few hairs I have on my arms out.
I like it anyway.

Just out of interest, are these outfits/helmets ornamental or do you wear them? If the latter, for what purpose? (please make it clean...)
Not antagonistic, genuinely intrigued.
Some of them are worn. The Star Wars ones mainly as both husband and I are part of a charity garrison so we will wear them for events from time to time. Other than that most are display, although husband wants to put a rocketeer costume together for comic con.Not antagonistic, genuinely intrigued.
Mostly though just for the love of random crap
A mini Christmas present for myself:
Nitecore Tini, £28, 380 Lumens. Pictured next to a 2 Euro coin because that's all the change i could find.
At the last count a couple of years ago I was on torch No.400ish. Now fast approaching 450ish
