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

I've just realised... this isn't the 'Council' thread...

I already have 9 watches and a fitness tracker, but I wanted a proper watch which was also a fitness tracker and would give me notifications from my phone, so I bought watch number ten!!!

Fossil Q smartwatch on the right!!

This just popped up on my fb feed

Looks like the kind of thing i’d Flip through twice and then stick on the shelf with the super8 footage of the Apollo landings I bought and have never watched!

It's in danger of turning in to it though, the nature of this thread, the buying of overpriced tat just to willy-wave...

We so need the cringe thread back!

It's 1 issue of a 30 part collection (all priced @ £30 each I think although it's pretty hard to decipher)

I found £10 when I was out walking the dog, so in 4-8 weeks I'll be very surprised when one of these finally drops through the letterbox:

I will mainly use it to retrieve socks from down the back of the hot water tank.

How? Yes its a camera and may be useful probably not (fits the thread greatly), but its got no grabby ability? So you'll just be able to confirm what sock is down there rather than is there a sock down there.

Apparetly those things feature on a few 'fetish' sites? Extra cash?

In reality, I daresay I'll see your new home movies on xHamster.

I bought one for a colleague for secret Santa. I needed to spend more for free postage so got one for myself as well. It’s not amazing video but decent enough, lives in my toolbox for looking at bits on the car before deciding whether I really need to take all the inspection covers off

Other half has one of these. Surprisingly good for a tenner. He mostly sits by our pond with it watching fish....

For those who have bought Nixie tube stuff, in my inane YouTube wanderings, I came across this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxL4ElboiuA

I'm a complete technophobe. Cannot even handle a simple BT wireless modem thingy.

So thought it would be a really good idea to buy an Ender 3 Pro 3d printer. Plus some 'day one upgrades' a friendly enabler pointed me to.

Then realised I don't have a computer.

So bought a gaming pc, with much encouragement from my better half (the Sims) and son (Fortnite, porn, fk knows).

It's all arrived. I'm now doing the biggest electronics project in, well, ever.

Wish me luck.
