Re: What have you just bought?
A new 4W LED filament bulb for the landing stairwell light. I was rather disappointed that this had failed as it was also LED filament and I'd fitted it as the lamp is a bear to get at but being a glass and brass star affair needs a sparkly bulb. I used to use a clear 40W golf ball incandescent.
I took the old bulb apart just to see what had failed and it seems to be the drive chip. The filaments still work fine. I guess the technology is still to fully mature.

Good buy - I have the Oneplus3, and it's great value, and a great phone.

The kids are happy. I'm pairing the phones with giffgaff £20/month unlimited everything. They've been told that the phones have to last them 3 years which will bring the cost down to £24ish/month. The only snag is if a phone breaks. Must look into insurance.

Re: What have you just bought?
New phone last week. I have been tracking it from the factory in China and onward through Japan and France. It has just landed at Stansted Fedex Hub.
