A Camelbak Octane Scudo backpack with hydration system for long runs and also for a change of clothes when running to and from work.

A Skywatcher Explorer 130mm ep2. It won't arrive for another 2 weeks yet, but I am so excited. It's meant to be a present for my girlfriend who is really into Astronomy and stuff, but I can imagine me getting just as much if not more use out of it.

Do the people in the house across the road not close their curtains?

Pre ordered it last night.

I'm going to drop some money down on this bike.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Not strictly my purchase, but my new work laptop specced appropriately by me

:

 

[Rykon Zero]

I was gonna complain about the lack of dedicated graphics, until I remembered this is a work laptop, and when I saw the size. That's packing some serious power regardless, looks nice!

What brand?

 

[SlipZtrEm]

A good deal thanks to a friend; couldn't wait four months in the hopes it made it to the sales bin.

 

[Sharky.]

Ryco 5767 air filter for my car, old one was pretty dirty. Seems to be a bit less slow than before, so that's nice

"In Car Portable Wireless Universal FM Transmitter with Hands-Free Calling "

Handy little device for the car. Not as good as bluetooth or a direct connection but it still works really well, and for less than £7 I can't complain.

Laptop looks the business Brad. 👍


With the warmer weather coming up and due to the fact I only have two short sleeve cycling jerseys that still fit me ok which makes it a bit annoying when it's time to wash them.

This.
Rapha trade team jersey.

Nothing wrong with spoiling yourself every now and then.

 

[Small_Fryz]

Looking pretty smart there Shaun!

I got the Polo fitted out with some new rubber. 4x Bridgestone RE002's

Sure ain't. Although I think you are lying about the weather warming up - it is Melbourne after all .

 

[Shaun]

It's going to be 18 over the weekend , short gear required.

 

[Small_Fryz]

I love it when they are over 18.

 

[Cano]

I love it when they are over 18.

You love it more when they're not even close to 18, admit it.

 

[Pako]

I purchased Internet access so I could read these awesome posts at GTP.

 

[phillgt2002]

What brand?

It's by Vilano. I've never heard of the company, but the bike has some decent reviews. I'm still waiting and searching for more information about the bike.

Since my vacation is finally winding down (I'll be around all day today as well) I'll go ahead and list the ridiculous sum of money I've spent since nearly two weeks ago:

No Skyfall, yet. Why didn't I buy it? I really have no clue.

And 4 bars of Dove soap, and subscribed to Spotify, re-subscribed to Netflix and bought two channels on the Roku so far. I am never spending money again.

Rapha?

The cost puts me off their jerseys, even if they are the best! Also the Edge is working nicely 👍

 

[Roo]

1996 1 litre Micra LX. Power steering, air conditioning, central locking and electric windows are all features this car doesn't have. It's extremely basic, but the more I drive it the more I wonder what people actually need anything else for, especially in a car this size. Bought purely for the fuel economy - the Volvo costs 25 pence per mile in fuel alone; this costs 15. In a year it'll have paid for itself in fuel savings. Still got the 940 for towing.

It did come with hubcaps but I took them off, partly so they don't get trashed but mostly because I like black steelies.

Yeah, that's what I meant about spoiling yourself every now and then. No not cheap at all but their quality is fantastic.

Good to hear the edge is going well. 👍
Did you get the cadence sensor for it also?

 

[Akira GT]

I got Some new shoes (these were actually a gift from a family member.)

Project Gotham Racing 4 - €9.99

NFSroStreet for X360 - €4.99

Feeder's album Polythene - €1.50

I'm a big fan of Feeder so I got the album and I enjoyed ProStreet as a kid so I wanted to relive it. I was planning on getting PGR4 for a while as well.

2 tickets to see Flight of the Conchords this weekend. Though, to be honest, Dave Chappelle's inclusion is what sealed the deal.

 

[Dooblewasur]

...recently passed up the chance to buy a friggin' brand new cassette from some local group at a KEXP concert by the Space Needle in Seattle. I did however purchase a passage on a ferry, upon which Conan O'Brien was present! He was just relaxing with his family, very polite and not at all hosting a national TV show. No one really pestered him except for a few photos at the beginning and end. Stood right next to him watching as the boat came towards the city (dead gorgeous) but no pics (so it didn't happen )

FYI I have a history of knocking Micra's out of gear with my knees, jus' sayin'.

Fits the job well though 👍

He is a good looking man, isn't he?

Two tickets for Alton Brown live at the Wharton Center in Lansing, MI. I've seen Alton before and his shows are always a ton of fun, it just sucks I have to drive an hour or so to get to the theatre.

 

[Venom800tt]

Bought more R/C car crap...
