I've heard wonderful things about this paint restorer without the abrasives of T Cut.

I'll take some before and after photos and see if it's as good as they say.

Expensive enough mind.

I bought some cheap headphones from Wish, one ear didn't work and they went straight in the bin. I hope you have more luck!

I usually go for a reasonable brand, I like my Sennheisers.
Always wondered about the cheapest of the cheap in ear jobbies and just how bad they could be, guess I'll find out soon.

I had a pair of those Sign high sers. Fucking awful. I had to return them. And a fucking hassle to do that as I'd bought them in skippol air port. The cheeky bastirts at sing Houser suggested it was My hearing. Shocked

I said to them fuck off and just give my yoorows back you German cunts. There are better headphones out there. My hearing is tested every year and it's 20 20. Cool

Just waiting on funds to clear, but I'll be buying a bunch of stuff to make a CNC conversion happen. Reason it's taking a while is because I decided to go down the closed-loop path, so servo spindle drive, hybrid axis motors and so forth. Its proving to be an expensive interest.

Got a couple of his movies that I haven't seen (yes, really - how did I never get around to them?!) coming too. Don't really care how good they are as movies - he's just a joy to watch, even with the sound off.

£19 Tenvis ip cam from ebay, I was amused to find that the app they make you download to get started doesn't control the PTZ but the app I already have and Blue Iris on laptop can move it.

Mad Dog 10k (2016) t-shirt, it was brand new, with all the tags still in from a charity shop. I'm assuming the organisers donate unissued t-shirts. £3.99

Today I treated myself to a new laptop (i7 and GTX 1050) Very Happy

Then realised I didn't have any pen drives large enough to transfer games, so with the use of some Tesco vouchers I managed to get a 64gb one for £8 Thumbs Up

Tried the quarter cask variety? It's a bit cheaper still but it's not as nice. Less smooth than the 10 yr.

New lid, shark skwal 2 in white. £165 from bikerswear at the Thruxton BSB round. Has glowy/flashy lights that I haven't used yet, flip down sun visor is neat. Bought because it fit spot on, rather than to fulfill my TRON fantasies.

I have the Shark Spartan Carbon which is more or less the same lid. It's fair to say these lids have their share of haters. Laughing
