Replacement ear-pads for my Bose QC35 headphones - the original ones were getting a bit tatty.

They’ve lasted 5 years, can’t complain.

Superb piece of kit, especially on long haul flights ;)

Xbox Series S - My One X gave up the ghost after four years, so the Series S will tide me over till I can get hold of a Series X

New upright freezer . Surprisingly it was cheaper from John Lewis than AO and had a quicker delivery. Glad l have two as that one died wondering what will die , next all kitchen white goods ( but they are black !) Bought at the same time . So waiting for fridge or range to die next .

Coal isnt a great deal of use unless you have a coal fireplace (or stove/boiler).

My first job back in 1958 was junior in a coal and gravel merchants office. Back then you could order a bag of coal dependent on grade for 4/11 (25p) per cwt or better grades for 5/11 or 6/ll and have it delivered for free. My wage then was £2.10/- per week (£2.50p) = £125 per YEAR! Didn't get paid for the 2 weeks holiday in July. I gave my Mum £2 for my keep and had 50p to myself, off which I had to pay my bus to and from work, and entry into the Palais de Dans on a Saturday night, the odd pair of stockings, which when they got a ladder I fixed with soap or nail varnish, and fare to and from work 6 days per week. The good old days? They were to me :):):)

Load of logs - £80. Normally we get half load but the supplier has stopped doing that. Should last 2 winters.

30 spirit pourers to go on my vodka, Will do all eventually but some only have a shot or two left, so will put on the next bottle.

But some I will struggle to buy as I cannot see them in the shops.

I don't want to drop below 21 bottles (all different)

19 billion random crypto coin for £100, it's a gamble but I hope it goes up enough to pull out my initial investment before it gets rug pulled.

set up a rig for a mate of mine in Feb. 6 x 5700XT as that was all you could get. It is now well in profit. Even on my LHR RTX 3060 TI I can pull close to £3 a day profit on that

Hopefully you hit the right one you will be fantasising of it hitting just 1p
