I'll consume some alcohol and then decide.


That's a dangerous game to play. Laughing

The last thing I bought was actually a couple of days ago now, but it was in fact ...

BACON

Not had bacon in the house for ages - no particular reason except that it requires cooking which I have not been of a mind to do for the last few months ... but I thought I should be hospitable to my psychedelic babysitter seeing as how he was such a good buddy and looked after me.

Plus ... I also bought eggs and cheese to go on the bacon sandwich cos I was MEGA hungry due to throwing up Laughing

Doing the meals on wheel thing again which requires all the gear for a sausage casserole.

Taking a bottle of fizzy pink wine because I've never had it.
Bought him some guitarstrings because his guitar is sounding mank.

10 kg of tig rods, 1 litre of 70 % alcohol, a 32 amp ip44 plug with socket, a garage fuse box and some twin and earth cable.
I then went to Aldi and made myself a 'being poorly' emergency food kit. 30+ tins of soups, various tins of cooked meats things, bread, scones, crumpets etc.

Two trugs and a tarp to hold the concrete, wood and earth when I replace my broken fence posts

A card (comedy) some chocs and two bottles of wine because I want to blow my beans in Mrs Nobby on Friday night.

Two machines. I absolutely positively needed one for work snackage.
So far I've gone with cheese and onion but I'm more than happy to be led astray.

Also, I bought another pair of work trousers, Dickies Red Hawk Action to be precise.

I've bought some chips and a pancake roll that I didn't even want Mad

Someone gave me a 50 pahnd note*, and I need to pay my cleaner tomorrow, so I had to break it. I went to the Londis and bought a bottle of Merlot and a bottle of peach nectar but it came to £8 plus change, which meant I had two twenties but still didn't have enough smaller for the cleaner (or a fiver - its £26/2 hours)

So I stopped in at the chip shop, thinking I would break another twenty with a battered sausage and get a fiver and some pahnd coins. But no! There was a pancake roll and some fish cakes, so I decided to get those and share them with the cats.

Only ... the lady in the chipshop thought I asked for some chips and a pancake roll, so the cats are starving and I have a plate of chips I don't even want. But also a handful of pound coins (cos she had no fivers) so there's enough change for my cleaner's envelope in the morning.

I got busy doing admin and forgot about the spring roll and now that's cold and all, and I don't EVEN want to eat any of it.

Still, whilst chatting with the man who owns the chip shop I managed to get him interested in the fact that I might do some part time dog-sitting for a reasonable rate. So that's another potential customer Cool Thumbs Up





*not Paddy, I hasten to add Laughing

Last night I bought some indicators for the Snarley, some of those ones which have little LED arrows, and which (hopefully) my little chum Hoffy ( wub: ) is going to be able to put on next weekend for me.

I ordered them at 18.55 yesterday and they arrived at 12.32 this afternoon. Cool

4 Fence panels courtesy of Dennis. Arriving the end of the week.

I think Ciarra weakened them then Dennis put the final boot in.

B@stard. Could have done without that couple of hundred quid this month what with the cars' insurance £600, and the boat licence fee £900 having to be donated to Direct Line and the Canal & River trust.

Fcuk it's expensive to have toys nowadays. Evil or Very Mad

I bought a Linkax COB LED rechargeable pocket light for work.
I'm currently using a Bosch light which uses a battery normally used to power a drill which makes it all a bit cumbersome.
This little but surprisingly powerful pocket light has a positional magnetic clip which should make things easier as I'm now frequently working in poorly lit areas underneath vehicles.

Pre-ordered an optical spring reverb.

Speaking of pre-orders, got a feeling a record is due out that I'd pre'd last year.

Oh aye, bought a Frey Bentos cheese n onion pie.
Stodgy. Thumbs Up

A speed controller for Alligator head project.

I have no idea what I'm doing. It came with no instructions so I need to attach a battery pack, a motor, a servo controller and a receiver (I think Laughing )

I'm not even sure of the voltage of the motor I have but I'll start with a 6v power supply and try not to burn anything out. Thumbs Up

I’m envious!
My audio system and speakers are currently wrapped in boxes post house move. It’s been 12 months but the new house isn’t suitable for them being set up again. I miss them like mad - but I think we’re moving again to a house where they will be proudly unboxed again!
