Re: What have you just bought?
 

465 Litres? That's the best part of half a tonne. Hope the floor is strong.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

A couple of bottles from my favourite local wine merchant (local-ish - it's in Skipton, which is 22 miles away).

Wright's Wine and Whisky has over 1000 different whiskys/whiskeys/whiskies in stock, 500+ gins, and lots and lots of other fine beverages.

On the way to the Devonshire Arms at the weekend, we stopped in and I bought myself a bottle of 10 year old Glengoyne single malt, a bottle of Gaston de Casteljac VSOP Cognac, and a 12 year old Girvan Distillery Single Grain cask strength whisky, bottled specially for Wright's.

Re: What have you just bought?

You really like collecting old things, what other item do you collect other than music and games and computers?

Thank you mate :)

I collect records,8 tracks,cassettes,VHS tapes and I have a videodisc movie (Poltergeist (1982)) but I havent yet found a good mono player!! (Most stuff on ebay is just for repair of another unit)

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Why would you want mono? We hear in stereo.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Anker Soundcore Motion B speaker as a well done for my daughter's school report. I know it's not that super but looks fine for the price.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.

It was supposed to be a birthday gift from my daughter & son-in-law, but the PC version can't be bought anywhere but Blizzard, and you have to "friends" for 3 days before they could gift it to me, so I've bought it, and they will transfer the funds to me.

133GB download about to start...

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Nice present Hugh, although a little on the large side


I'll never forget the first 'windows' computer I bought, I distinctly remember the salesman saying "it has a 4.2 GB hard drive . . you'll never fill that" :D

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Gb hard drives, my first drive was 540Mb.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

I have 2 x 500GB SSDs, and 2 x 2TB HD - OS on one SSD, games on the other, documents and media on one HD, Photos and other stuff on the other; all photos and documents backed up to OneDrive, Amazon Photos, and Google Drive (as well as a portable HD, which I keep at the MiLs when it's not backing stuff up (monthly)).

Re: What have you just bought?
 

My first PC (25 Mhz 386DX) which cost over a grand, had a 40 Mbyte HDD. In the pre-Windoze days (DOS 3.1) that seemed quite large.

Just recently added 2 Terabyte drive for HD films to the current desk machine (128G SSD, 500G HDD) which doubles up as a media server. This has bays and interfaces for another 3 drives. At the rate it's filling up I'll soon need to get another drive as well.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Yes mate this is true but I think Mono is a nicer sound... Everything all together in one place :)

Going to have to go to B&Q tomorrow and get a toilet plunger. Got the blockage from hell. :mad:

Still it'll be cheaper than a plumber.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Amazon Fire Stick (4k) for the spare (non-smart) TV - replacement for the one my son "borrowed".

Reduced on Amazon Black Friday - saved £20.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Rubber glove with bin bag on arm = job done....... maybe.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Tried that with a rubber glove on poking with a flexible pipe (:sick:). Unfortunately the blockage is further on. I know it's in a 3' section of the waste pipe as the outer section that the other waste pipes go into runs free.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

This must be driving you around the Ubend! :D

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Lets hope it does not stink the place out.:D

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Couldn't get a specific toilet plunger but I got a standard one (£4.70) and it's done the trick.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Finally ordered 2 2 seater sofas and a foot stool in the Black Friday sale, hopefully they will be ok, but anything will be better than what we currently have!

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Bought a Echo Dot with clock. I could get it from Currys now but don't mind waiting on Amazon, good job I got it in at start of the discount period because it's now out of stock to 22 Dec. Will use are replacement for bedside clock radio so don't need huge sound and LCD screens either turn off or leak too much light for the purpose.

A 3 foot long user bendable heating element (240V 750W) this is to do a similar repair to post #558 here

This time one of the remaining bottom elements has failed. The top fix is still working fine so I thought a repeat is the correct thing to do.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

Not bought one yet but this looks like a really good investment.

16 bottles of wine (stocking up for Christmas, as I only have around 30 left at the moment).

2 x fizz, 6 white, 8 red.

6 from Sainsbury's, as they had some of their nice wines reduced, and were offering 25% of that price if you mixed and matched 6, and 10 from Majestic, as I received one of their £30 vouchers in the post.

I drink about 1 bottle of wine (red) per week, but we will have family and friends around for the next month, so making sure we’re stocked up.

Re: What have you just bought?
 

If you do buy a lot from Amazon look at smile.amazon.co.uk and direct some money to a charity you can choose. Doesn't cost you anything and doesn't apply to all purchases.

Flights to Larnaca for a two week holiday (near Kyrenia, North Cyprus) in May for me, my wife, my daughter, and our grandson Theo - he will be just under 9 months old when he has his first flight, so CF'ers may wish to avoid Jet2 flights from Leeds in May... :D

*actually, he is a very good baby, was sleeping from 11pm to 7am at 2 months old, and has been sleeping through from 7pm to 7am since he was 4 months old, so hopefully it won't be too bad.
