Re: What have you just bought?
A Black vertical low profile mains power strip that sits nicely at the back of my new TV unit so can easily hide most wires, hopefully it won't burst into flames destroying all my new toys!

I just love fountain pens, I have 22 and they are probably worth over £1,200.
I also currently have over 1,000 books but nearer 1,500 when I add my mums books that many predate ISBNs.
I won't mention the 1,000+ DVDs & Blu-Rays

Re: What have you just bought?
The disk drive on my main Sky+ HD box failed over the weekend.
So that left a choice of replace it (again) or switch .. I decided to switch to Sky Q, ordered today.

Re: What have you just bought?
A 2015 Ford Focus 1.0T EcoBoost Zetec for my son - he's driving a 2006 Ford Ranger 2.4 diesel at the moment, but it's costing him a fortune in upkeep and fuel.

A pair of Sennheiser IE600. Very pleased with them.

Re: What have you just bought?
Cool white Christmas tree lights. 120 string with action. £9 at B&Q. They're to replace a much older set with 40 static LEDs that's over 20 years old and some of the LEDs are failing. At the time these were special import at £40 and there were none in the UK shops at the time so my tree was pretty unique together with a blue action set.
I have a more recent 80 cool LED action set so I'll combine these, probably on static setting.

Re: What have you just bought?
Pixel 8 Pro 256GB Obsidian from John Lewis - I was going to wait until the New Year to replace my current OnePlus 7 Pro (four and half years old), as the new OnePlus 12 will be out then, but pretty sure my current phone won't last till then.
JL had a trade-in promo code - I only got £24 trade in value for the old phone (because of the state of the back), but they added a £125 discount code, which made the cost more palatable.
I also like the fact that Google have guaranteed Operating System and Security updates for the next seven years - my current phone stopped getting them after three years (still on Android 12).

As long as you’re happy and comfortable, that’s what matters.
It’s a bonus that you are bringing joy into others lives, spreading happiness and laughter wherever you go - it’s a twofer…
Off anywhere nice?

Re: What have you just bought?
A real pot grown Christmas tree, with roots.
Had one years ago. Did for a few xmas's, putting it outside each year before it got too big to bring in. Had to release into the garden envetually before that got too big and had to chop it down. Will choose the location more carefully next time!
