Re: What have you just bought?
My car is not E10 compatible, I've just paid 150.9p a litre for E5 super unleaded in a supermarket petrol station. E10 unleaded was 143.9p a litre.
£58.85.

Re: What have you just bought?
Some walking shoes from Mountain Warehouse. Shoes are one of those things I can't buy online (sandals maybe). The first pair (£25) fitted OK but cast my weight inwards when walking, the second (£50) a bit tight but felt better walking, the last (£75) fitted the best but soles are quite thick (do get 3 year warranty). I really just wanted some waterproof shoes for general wearing, my current pair are only 10 years old and coming apart in places. Trouble is the choice here without driving is Clarks or Mountain Warehouse, other retailers have closed or are very specialist with very specialist prices.
At worst I have a pair of shoes for walking and can find a general pair when out with car. If I can drive in these the problem is solved.
Shoes are a pain to buy as trying on, new pairs never feel as comfy as the pair you have on.

Re: What have you just bought?
Three Vineyard Vines long-sleeved T-shirts.
(actually bought them last month, but as they are based in Connecticut, the postage would have been horrendous, so got them delivered to my Bro-in-law's house in CT, and he's just delivered them, as he's staying with us for a week).

Re: What have you just bought?
Not bought... yet... but made an offer on a property on Skye. Looking to relocate rather than use as holiday let.
Amazon deliveries could be potentially a bit of a bugger mind

Don't think so, think Vodafone @ 67mbps is the quickest for the property

Re: What have you just bought?
Not sure I’d like it there, but if it’s what you want I hope it turns out to be everything you expect.
Enjoy!
