What was the last thing you bought?

Not these exact ones (mire are a good bit more knackered), but some "CCM Crazy Lights Ovechkin Limited Edition" ice skates. Gave them a quick go on Monday, now got them a bit more comfortable hopefully, so maybe try again on Friday. Definitely better in a few ways than my current (very comfortable) 'beginner' ones.

I bought an RST jacket from fb marketplace for £45.
Superb condition, almost feels new and it just happens to match the troosers I bought a couple of years ago.
After a short account of the seller's even shorter biking history, he tells me to hang on as he's got a few bits he wants rid of.
He comes back with a big bottle of muc off cleaner, visor wiping sponge, bottle of muc off visor cleaner and a Frank Thomas antifreeze balaclava.
I like freebies.

A new laptop. I've got a bunch of bike gear listed on eBay and my shitty laptop decided it was unable to boot
on Tuesday. Most inconvenient as some of the listings aren't complete as I was rushing them on before a £1
selling fees offer expired. I'm sure it can be fixed. It's asking for "insert boot media" whatever that fucking means.
I'd rather chuck a few hundred at a new one than fuck about with the damn thing any more as I'm liable to just punch it.
If it's too much to fix its going on the bonfire.

New PIR LED light for the back garden.
https://www.screwfix.com/p/lap-led-pir-floodlight-black-50w-daylight/458cc

Just been out back to test it, it's very good.
More than bright enough without being blinding.
I was umming and ahing about LED floods, it's hard to imagine how bright they might be when they go on about lumens.
I know it mentions 50w in the ad but my old halogen light was 400w iirc and this new one seems a lot brighter.

I rate LED floodlamps. I have a few more of them to install around the back garden.

Got a brand new JVC Boomblaster. New as in never used but actually a 2011 spec model so has an old style ipod
connection to suit my old faithful ipod classic. Had to drive up to Redditch to collect it and handed over a measly
80 quid for it. It's my second Boom Blaster. I bought the very first one back in about 92 and it's just given up the ghost
after nearly three decades service. Everything still works but one channel has a bad connection. I'm sending it away for a bit
of an attempt to fix it before I give up on it completely but I am made up that I found a brand new one to replace it. I've been
looking at loads of tatty used ones, tried to snipe 2 different ones max bid of £110 on each and was outbid both times. This
sucker was a buy in now so I hit the button as soon as I saw it.

Here's the new guy.

A CBR600RR chinese pattern radiator and a front master cylinder rebuild kit. My OEM radiator became a water feature after being hit by a stone yesterday, and the front brakes are somewhat spongy after rebuilding the calipers, replacing the hoses and refilling with brand new fluid.

All you can eat buffet - India Veg in Islington.

Not quite as good as Bombay Aloo in Brighton, but it was okay.
Reasonable price, but stung me £2quid for a can of coke, but it was still all under a tenner.

I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't really go out of my way to eat meat either, but I don't worry if I do.

And just down the road, in Sports Direct, I got a Muddy Fox jacket for £20 to replace my Karimor one that is wrecked, cos I rarely, if ever wear the Deliveroo one, and a No Fear energy drink

and in another shop a mars bar and a packet of liquorice allsorts, and later on a coffee

last of the big spenders

I liked the book shop on the narrow boat on the canal, but I didn't buy anything

Bull it SR6 jeans, not from here though.

Proper kit, but no armour so recycled some CE 1 knee pads for now, got some 3DO on donation from a mate.

Bit itchy on the knees though, had to sew a bit of sock over where the velcro holds in the armour as the scratchy edges were doing my head in all day while wearing them in work.

A new Suction Control Valve for my Montero Sport. It's lost any acceleration and is blowing out black smoke.
The winning part is, back home in the Philippines, Mitsubishi want 16,000 php for it. Here in China I can get the same part for (equivalent to) 2000 php

I got an email from 7dayshop advertising a Remington quick bonce shaver gizmo gizmo.
Decent by all accounts and at a reasonable discount so the plunge I did take.
I'm intrigued by the curved cutting edge.
