What was the last thing you bought?

An easy fit 15mm water isolating valve, the main stopcock is leaking and grotty, I dare not tighten it anymore, the thought of mains water pressure leaking into a brand new kitchen justified the expense.

I don't trust freezing the pipe, freeze kits ain't cheap you know, and with my luck doing a quick swap with mains water flowing out won't end up being quick enough, so I've gone for a hot swap doofah.

My Birkenstock flip flops are finally falling to pieces after about 8 years of owning them. I could probably glue them back
together (again) but I think it's time for something new. As a recent convert to Crocs I thought I'd give their flip flop
variant a try so there's a pair of these on the way. Hopefully their 1 piece construction will be more durable than the old
Birkenstocks which have fallen apart long before they are worn out.

Today, for some reason known only to my inner self, I managed to buy FOUR boxes of 40 sachets of cat food slop. Hence now the proud owner of over 160 sachets of cat food slop.

Fuck knows how.

I usually buy 1 or 2 boxes cos I are got 2 cats, so it pretty much keeps them happy from one payday to the next, depending on who's hungry (or not) and I buy a bag of those cat biscuitty things too cos Lawrence is more partial to those.

But this morning, the Morrisons man staggered out the back of his van lugging four of the bastards - i didn't go "Oh! I never ordered those!" because I suspect I forgot to unclick something in the shopping trolley

Fuck it, won't run out for ages now

If our cats are anything to go by, your cats will scoff them happily for a day or two, then mysteriously “go off” them necessitating the purchase of a different brand and the donation of your remaining packets to another cat owner. Bastards

A selection of plastic plant pots, dishes, a propagator and a big bag of multi purpose compost. If that's your bag
then get down to Wilko who are discounting everything.

I think I bought a laptop on eBay, not sure

No need for fancy spec, its for the Italian shrink's patient files, so its only a refurb with 16 RAM.

Expecting it to turn up just after the bank holiday, as long as it does I will be pleased not to have wasted 180 notes.

I'm starting to mistrust online transactions but have no real reason for not trusting them - just another manifestation of my encroaching "Boomer-mentality" disease.

A Starlink internet setup.

I've been using an EE 4GEE setup for about 5 years now. When I bought into it and set it up it was blisteringly fast and remained that way pretty much until last year. I've watched (and become increasingly frustrated with) the performance degrade over time with no sign of respite.

The kit arrived today and now I'm waiting for a heavy duty hot dipped galvanised mount kit from another supplier. A bit of drilling and screwing and I should be good to go with even faster connection speeds. It's not cheap but I've come to the conclusion that it's my best long term option.

I may keep the 4G omni antenna to experiment with a passive repeater setup to boost my mobile reception in the house. It should work in theory anyway...

its nice to see you supporting Mr Musk.

Croc sandals didn't fit, returned them yesterday. Exactly the same size as my classic crocs so I'm not sure why
they were so tight?? Re-invested the same money on a handlebar mount for my Ghost camera, my bike has a 12v
cigar lighter thingy just underneath the main display (nice little touch Yamaha ) and I reckon I should be
able to get the camera mounted in such a way that it runs directly off the bike so battery life is no longer an issue.
At the moment my old Ghost cam gives me about an hour of footage before it dies, it should also mount so
the speedo isn't in shot. I reckon I might be able to get a mic on/in one of the acoustic grilles for a nice crossplane
soundtrack.
