Cat flea treatments from France, evading local vet fees of £45 per cat for "health checks" and the same treatments at 42% more expensive.

I need a pair for distance and pair for reading.

£414 :shocked:

Mind you I got 2 for 1 on frames, so my distance pair I ordered transition and the reading pair have a coating for that help with screen use.

I got two pairs (1 varifocal and 1 for screen use) with anti-scratch and anti-reflective coatings for £99 from ASDA, Good solid frames too.

A pair of Denon AH-W200 wireless earphones. While (as noted in http://www.digitaltrends.com/headpho...h-w200-review/) they do have problems with bluetooth dropouts, and awkward controls (which I don't really use), as well as making the user look like he or she is wearing two old school hearing aids, they do sound a lot better than my old Sennheisers, and offer 4 to 5 hours playback on one charge. They also have a wired backup connection, and become passive when that is used, so you can use them even if the battery is flat.

I also bought a Samsung T1 external SSD. Not cheap, but gives 512Gb storage and is blindingly fast on the USB3 socket.

Just bought (well arrived on Weds) a OnePlus 3 - a few niggles but all in all a smashing phone.

Cheers

Mine arrived on Monday, but since I've been working away all week, only got to set it up today.

A bit annoyed the NFC transfer didn't work, but besides that, liking it a lot.

2nd September

Hopefully it will have calmed down a bit, mind you last year when we went the first night there was a protest which turned into a mini riot Turkish police waded in firing tear gas

Which was nice !

A gas bbq yesterday.

Spent ages building it just in time for cooking last night.

Unfortunately the whole thing caught fire including the outside of the bbq.

I took the remains back for a refund today.....

Flights to/from Boston MA for September, hotel rooms for 2 nights in Boston and 2 nights in Provincetown, and ferry tickets to/from Boston and Provincetown.

We haven't booked the other 10 nights, we'll play it by ear when we get there...

That's September's holiday sorted...
