Does it stick to your phone?
What about a portable hard disc drive? It would probably work really well with one of those.
or your credit card?
hehe

You are evil... Don't do any of the above with a high power magnet!

Does your phone still work properly after that? laugh
It's fine. I've seen many car magmounts for phones.

USB Power pack charger unit thingy

Big enough to charge a phone during our summer camping outings
Small enough to be 'put somewhere safe ... never to be found again smile

1TB mini SSD drive



https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/SanDisk-Sdssdext-1t00-g25...

The reason why?

I paid $308 AUD and with the way I get paid it means it cost me £150, so cheap and shiny.

I really shouldnt be allowed near eBay, as its not the first and I currently have 5TB in HDs/Micro SDs/Surface Pro, that just in Australia and doesnt include the 10TB NAS in London.

I just keep buying them

Yet another tee shirt, albeit the most expensive tee shirt I've bought at £29, it's an Orvis!!!
In the last few years I purchased about 10 Asics T’s £30 each.

I refuse to do the maths!

I got it for my mixing desk... 10 years of dust removed in about 30 seconds.. those compressed air cans are rubbish.

The biggest disruption on the last track day I did was a pot-bellied middle-aged gentleman who turned up with a Radical complete with his own mechanic, instructor and support bus. He binned it every time he went out in the morning, often leading to a lengthy track closure whilst the Radical was recovered. Happily, he broke something that couldn't be fixed just after lunch and had to retire.
Mark Proudfoot I wonder?

Didn’t he die recently?

My Leophile Eels arrived a few days ago, just as good as the Zeros in term of build and sound quality. Waterproof and better suited for the rare times I mistakenly venture into the gym. Bargain at £22

If I lived somewhere like that I would wholeheartedly agree.

I had a DJI Phantom 3 a couple of years ago and sold it as it never got any use. I'm sure it will be different this time though.

I can see the B&B we stayed at in that pic when we were out cycling the Bealach. Owner was a right character, had a big gas guzzling Jeep which can't have been cheap to run in that neck of the woods!
