Some more tools, principally ratchets and socket spanners for my upcoming Caterham Build.

Frivolous beacuse i already have multiple sets of both, but a shiny new Caterham kit justified shiny new tools right! wink



You need a decent set of ratchet ring spanners too!

Slight panic when I received this e-mail today. I thought my bank account had been hacked, then thought it was just spam. Then I had a bit of a harder think and remembered ordering these last night after having "some wine"... I don't play any games that require dice, and definitely not in the dark.

10/10 for frivolity
10/10 for forgetting you'd ordered them.

For the full hit I should've posted the picture of my kebab in the "Dirty Takeaway" thread!

Given all the Black Friday stuff going on at the moment, I'm surprised there isn't more activity on this thread currently. smile

See, someone thought it was cute.

What it actually is is a very brutal message from the Mafia to anyone with a Hogwarts playset.

Quiet day at work, this was a bad day to be quiet wink

Bought:
Amazon Fire Stick - £25 at Amazon, no idea why I need this when I have the full pack from Sky including paying for Sky Go Extra, a PS3 and PS4 that stream 90% of the stuff the stick does and Sony Blu-ray surround sound system with various online stuff that probably does the rest.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 - £299 at John Lewis, Currys had it the same price but JL have 2 year warranty and better customer service. It'll replace my ageing iPad2 so I think this is justified.
Rapid charger - £8 at Amazon, can now charge both my phones and new tablet much faster.... while I sleep.
Philips light bulbs for the car, extreme something or other - £15 (ish) at Amazon, will hopefully improve the woeful dipped lights I have at the moment, probably not but they have a fancy name so maybe it'll help me use the force or something.

Could have been much worse but I've bought a few other bits during the week, like shoes that arrived today and other small items. I roughly added up this weeks spending and it's not good but not as bad as most on this thread, wouldn't be so bad if it was Christmas presents but it's all selfish stuff for me! Many many things added to various baskets then removed/left to expire including lots of TV's, I have 4 TV's in the house and I live alone, maybe the garage needs a TV.
