Some cat themed stuff for my wife's birthday and some head light bulbs for my car.

Her main pressie will be a rambling rose, we buy as a stick, propagate it and plant out.

We dont have spiders in the house or in the cellar as our siamese cat eats them all. He also removes most flying insects as well.

Cheapish electric razor for my son - needs to start removing the fluff. Probably need to show him wet shaving later but while he only needs a quick "rub" once in a while.

A pair of Huawei Freebud earphones for my P20 Pro.

The sound is prettty decent, however they do look a lot like the apple Airpods.

I have worn contacts for just over a year now nash and tbh I don't wear them all the time more often than not I was flinging out opened contact lenses that had only been worn a couple of days so dailies make more sense both financially and the way I wear them.

I was using fortnightly lenses called acuvue oasys hydraclear plus (which is ideal if you wear them every day for the fortnight) but I didn't hence why have since opted to go for the daily lenses and the ones that I now wear are called Focus Dailies All Day Comfort with these dailies I can wear when I chose without any waste as I was finding that I was only wearing the fortnightly lenses only a couple of times then having to bin them due to them being fortnightly lenses now with the dailies I will have no waste since I will be wearing once then binning them.

She got in a right tizzy trying to fit the data cable for the umpteenth time, as Win10 would not see the drive (I suggested it was a bad lead).

2 pins snapped off, all the others twisted and flattened.

Not so much as a bargain now, bin job I suspect.

I had contact lenses for 15 years and my eyes started to dry up so I had to stop and get glasses, which I do not like does not matter how much I pay for them , but I have no choice, I loved the contacts,

Nash contacts have really came on now as I suffer from dry eye the contacts that I used to use are for people who suffer from dry eye maybe you could ask your optician for a trial of these, I personally found acuvue oasys hydraclear plus extremely good most optician's offer free trial so you will not be out of pocket. I know I was sent away with quite a few packs but I found acuvue oasys hydraclear plus to be the best for my eyes anyway they are a bit more expensive than other lenses but totally worth it. Don't know how much they would be for occasional use as I was the 12 month direct debit scheme and my monthly plan was £22.00 a month for a 3 month supply and i have just changed my plan for dailies I'm going to be £21.00 with the option to change my supply, what I like about going on the 12 month Direct Debit scheme is you get eye test every year plus glasses with the value up to £100.00 and if I get glasses say at £150.00 they take the £100.00 off.
