Case for my first modded + WCed build!! Oh and some nice designer shoes for the wife .. cost about the same as the case... she was pretty scary excited!!

 

MarioKart 8 is awesome, don't forget to register the game on the nintendo website to get a download code for another game (you need to wait 48hrs after registering and then log back into the nintendo site.) I went for Legend of Zelda: wind waker, but kind of wished I'd gone for the Wonderful 101 instead as I just spotted a new copy of Wind Waker in HMV for £29

Shadow of the Beast, I used to love just listening to the music on that on the Atari

PvZ:GW is such a fun game.

Booked a day of work so that I can go look for my birthday present, Thinking of getting the Ghostbusters Ecto 1 Lego kit.

 

Just got this very friendly beast from the Edinburgh Cat Protection League.

 

A Samson Go Mic, as my other mic was terrible:


And a Nikon D3100:

 

Did she come with the cardigan or did you get that later?

 

That was an extra, always extras these days + she needs a booster vaccination in a weeks time which is another 40+ quid. But if she need it she needs it.

 

Found a giftcard for EB games with 25 bucks on it, I'll probably go pick up Forza 4 since it's 29 new! I'm way behind but looking for a half-decent racing game that isn't too sim-like. I could have just took my brothers Gran tourismo 5 if I wanted that.

 

Just wanted to share a pic of my New Old upgrade


Some spare parts for my Reel-to-Reel (it was missing a knob)


And a horribly bad pic of some additions to my lighting setup.

 

* RAMPS 1.4 RepRap Controller
* Arduino MEGA 2560

 

Thermalright TrueSpirit 140, im now off to bludgen some poor child with the thing its enourmous.

 

After dropping the Dell venue last night and smashing the screen, this morning I picked up:


Massively more expensive than the Dell but significantly better suited to the job, and what I should have bought in the first place.

 

Spending all day tomorrow doing the wiring in the PC and under my desk

 

Badass Fiskars Multi Tool Scissors

I think I am going to love the box-opener bit on there.

Also, who pays over €200 for a shirt? Not me. 70% off La Martina shirt.

 

Who pays €60 for a shirt?

 

Pretty much every guy who works in an office and wants to dress nice.

 

Plain black M&S shirt - £19.50

Works for me, a little more than I'd rather spend but hey,

 

I thought Army surplus was cheap

Primarni for workshirts for me

 

Charity shop - £1.50 - £2 for a damn good shirt. Some still have the labels on, with the original price! I'm not bothered if they've come out of a wardrobe of someone who's just kicked the bucket, most look brand new and unworn anyway. I know there's not the choice, but I'm not picky.

 

I also use M&S either the £19.50 or the £25 shirt. I have to wear collar and tie every day. I would never pay £60 for a short.

 

Swings and roundabouts. Some of you would probably balk at what I spend on shirts/suits. I don't even have to wear them every day

Similarly, I understand why people don't want to.
