More frivolous purchases, stuff you don't need..

[ooo000ooo]

The batteries have died in my doorbell & there's been a couple of burglaries locally recently so I've bought a ring doorbell.

I'm a big Tumi fan, as travel a lot. The wheeled roll on luggage is very tough, and the add-a-bag clips are indispensable when trying to get all of your own luggage through a airport, hotel etc..

I'm disappointed with an Alpha laptop bag, where the shoulder strap fitting pulled out of the bag. It was held in by a single row of stitching. This was a £340 Alpha bag, well made and great shape/compartments, but this is surely not sturdy enough.

If it is less than 5 years old, it should be covered by their warranty - they even cover wear and tear, which is pretty much unheard of!

I've just bought these,

Frivolous as I already have a trolley jack and axle stands, but when you get a 2ton compact trolley jack and ratchet stands for £34.99 delivered, well they're always useful!!!

And wall mounted too

I had a £5 Maplin voucher that had to be used by tomorrow, stopped on the way home to get another smart plug for £40. Should have been £45!

Sorry GOG I'm rubbish at the whole linky thing, go on eBay and type in Hawk trolley jack and it'll come up, I'll see if I can sort a link out on my PC at work tomorrow!!!

I bought an excellent low entry jack from Costco years ago which fits under the Sagaris fine.

That one looks a little high - are you sure it will fit under yours?

Edit: mine is very similar to this Draper, but isn't branded as such.

It says the minimum height is 80mm, my wedge doesnt sit too low to the flor so I am sure it will be ok

That's nice looking bit of kit that!! If you'd have said I have a spare handle you could have had, I've got a defunct trolley jack in the shed which needs dumping you're welcome to the handle!
