54 x hue bulbs. Well, if I'm going to do one room I may as well do them all...
Doing your username justice On the plus side, her not knowing means I can have lots of remote control fun when she's home alone. Especially as I'm Hue-ing the sheds too, for halloween/winter fog amusement.

That is every light except the GU10s in the en suite and back porch (which is just used as a dog house). The Mrs doesn't know (I don't think she even knows they're a thing), and would have an absolute fit if she found out how much they cost... But then I've just sold a couple of boats and a car so I'm allowed a treat. Even if it's a secret one. Please don't tell her.

Make sure you turn the entire house red. When she rings, answer "Yes Roxanne?"

I had the Bose QC20i. Very, very good for flying. I sadly left them on a plane a week ago so I am looking too.
The problem I had with the QC20 was that it was confused by sudden changes in air pressure. It would manufacture a counter-sund, even when it was just a pressure change - creating a sudden loud "bang". This made it impossible to wear on overground trains with the noise cancelling on. However, they were so good, I kept them just for flying (which I do a lot).
I'm going to try a pair of these for a few flights we have coming up:

Thanks for the recommendation - I knew I could rely on this thread to deliver an answer! Will order some today.The problem I had with the QC20 was that it was confused by sudden changes in air pressure.

Frankly, if she finds out then you'll wish you had bought one for the dog house as well. Calza said:

A porcelain pig, described as being of a good size. No idea why I decided to buy this yesterday. I wasn't drinking, but I had forgotten to take my meds so I might blame it on that. It's not even a nice looking pig. I now have the joy of going and picking it up as it was a collection only Ebay purchase. What does one do with a porcelain pig?

Personally, I would do it from short range with an upward shot from a 12 bore and then share the resulting video on here.Regardless, it has massive win as a frivolous purchase

Get some better pics and relist it to allow other frivolousers the opportunity to express themselves!I'm tempted by the 100Y hoodie.
Made from 100% Kevlar and designed to last a hundred years (hence the name). Probably a gimmick and it's expensive at £230 but if it's genuinely top quality I wouldn't mind paying.
No reviews at all though, and Kevlar degrades in UV so I'm sceptical.

I don't do a lot of flying, or have any reason, I just fancy one. Is £450 on two hoodies too much?

At least 90% of their sales will be to virgins to wear whilst playing Call Of Duty.
