My Seamaster which I've worn for the last 10 years has gained a bit in price, as it's still immaculate I could easily get my money back on and a bit more if I wanted to sell it (which I won't).

Re: What have you just bought?

Just bought another Mini PC i5 9500 8GB ram ( I have a 16 gig kit that will go in there) 256GB Nvme. They had it for £119 sent an email saying they have reduced it to £109 but then they had the SPENDSAVE90 voucher which bought it down to £89. For that spec and prices how they are this is a bargain

Re: What have you just bought?

Splashed out and spent £2 on an Erasable black pen from Amazon. Even got it reduced on an offer.
I need to keep a journal and an appointments/hospital diary linked to my medical condition and having to keep altering dates and records of new treatments/drugs means that the entries are repeatedly having to be crossed out or revised. I have tried using a pencil/rubber .... messy.
Using this Erasable pen has made me happy.
Sad I know but I don't care. I may even splash out and buy a green ink one, so there!! 🤪

It's a Christmas lights event and market thing, with a few rides, not cheap though, were going on the first week of December.
