We have 4 of those.
2 at my parents and 2 at mine. Unless your garden is a wind tunnel, you won't be filling it up without doing 50000 'whoosh's'.
I now use my leaf blower. Ha.

Yup, excellent idea ruined by not being easy to inflate and then them deflating in about an hour.
They also get punctures really easily (at least the cheap ones I had did)

Don't bother.

I have one of these in my "do I, don't I" lists. Not entirely frivolous - it's a bench, so would assist with keeping wellies outside. Probably a little "marmite" though. If I do buy one I'll also have to buy a suitable fake dog poo.

Where? How much?

Also, when my wife kills me, I'd like to be cremated and scattered at sea. Thanks.

Random Windows10 tablet from Amazon yesterday, delivered yesterday.
Didn't really need it, but it works quite nicely, and supports a citrix session, so I'm currently connected to work with it.
Also, some faux carbon fibre vinyl (fridge is getting wrapped) and a staple gun, for other purposes..
Quite a random haul.

I saw one in the "flesh" on the weekend at our local annual town fair - it looked nicer than the photos would suggest.

They come in two sizes. If you search for "Dachshund Bench" on Google or Amazon....

Don't forget to complete the purchase with http://amzn.eu/4kWMjdA

I bought the case for £15 with the pen, sold it for £30 and kept the pen

Of course, your statement means that your post is now ineligible for this thread.

The Light Phone, a kickstarter I'd completely forgotten about. Just makes and receives calls; no texts, no data.

That looks like the ones on gearbest for about £20.

I decided my party flat needed a £350 commercial Jagermeister tap machine for summer BBQ's on the roof terrace.

It takes about 3 litres of jager to fill it and then 3 bottles on top in addition.

A party flat? Now that is frivolous.

About a tenner, and they can text as well!

But you can get a black and white Nokia for free with £20 of credit from most high street phone providers....

I'm hard pressed to actually think of many things in my life that aren't entirely frivolous to be fair. I spent 10 minutes deciding which of the 36 pairs of sunglasses I should wear this morning from a custom made mounting rack. Only to realise in the time I had taken doing so the sun had gone in.

Mine arrived today as well. I'm happy to report the wife's arse was 4 degrees less than her right tit.

What he's saying is that his wife has a very large arse. Fat is an insulator, so a small arse would show little difference. A large insulated (with fat) arse would show a big thermal difference.

4 degrees is a pretty big covering of fat!!
