A packet of mixed spice, oxidant cream and another back brace.

Re: What have you just bought?

I bought one of those multi cookers after my venerable Tefal cooker died after ten years. The old unit was mainly used for rice cooking and as a slow cooker but this new one is also a pressure cooker. Did a beef stew to christen and wowzers, the results were amazing after 30 minutes cook time!

A tube of transparent silicon rubber sealant. Going to combine it with a thin aluminium plate and some self tapping screws to hopefully repair a split in a plastic water butt.

A new folding washing basket since I stepped on the other one and my foot went through the bottom.

Re: What have you just bought?

Today I received an email from Morrisons offering free daily deliveries until next Thursday.

So I made an order for cigs and cat food to test it out.

It was due to arrive between 5 and 6. But I've just had an email saying all the items are out of stock.

So I've repeated the order for tomorrow.

They will only send 5 packs of cigs, so I've put in orders for them for every day until next Thursday.

Some lino (is it still called lino??) for the bathroom. It's replacing some Moduleo vinyl tiles which are rubbish.

You needn't have bothered with the bird feeder Hugh, they'll feast on the blueberries. They always get mine !

Really looking forward to seeing GT7 there’s apparently MW2 either available or coming as well.

Tbf I’m more excited about the garden office, although not as excited as swmbo who gets a bedroom back and gets rid of all my work crap

An Omron X3 Comfort Blood Pressure Monitor.

It's a 2-person model, so I can keep tabs on mine and my dads
