G-Star Raw Cardigan on sale.


Some Ceylon tea.

A clothing brush


Edit, oh and a Leopold FC660M with Cherry MX Greens + matching tenkeypad.

 

Handfuls of games, picked up; Driver: San Francisco (*2, One is a present), TES: Skyrim Legendary (Also a gift), XCOM: Enemy Unknown & Within, (Yet more gifts) The Stanley Parable (For me).
Saving up now to pick up a Dell U2913WM soon, if I can get my pay sorted at work; it'll be a christmas present to myself.

 

I never thought I would when I picked it up in the steam sale but XCOM is bloody addicting!
When I finished my first run I immediately went back and bought enemy within.

Just start on normal though. Classic is brutal and Impossible is... well impossible.
Don't even get me started on the Ironman setting.

 

Going 50/50 with mum to get dad his Christmas present:
Microsoft Surface 2 (64GB) with Type keyboard.

 

Hotel reservation for 2014 Worldcon (London Excel)

 

I bought a full set of wiper replacements for the car from the Reno Stealership down the road yesterday.... £44, but they were worth every penny because they made a massive difference! I've also just ordered these:

10x spruce clips:



20x 8.5mm Renault style panel clips/plasti-rivets:



10x Renault style 8mm plasti-rivets:



2x 100m x 75mm rolls black Mag Tape gaffer tape:



4x 20m x 19mm rolls black insulation tape:



6mm x 10m foam badge tape:



SUPPLIES! The clips would have cost me £1.06 per spruce clip and £1.35 per plasti-rivet from the Stealership - I told the guy at the spares counter exactly what I thought about that when I was there yesterday! I got all of the clips listed in this post for less than £10 delivered.

Aaand finally, a black Crumpler Lamington 13" laptop sleeve/pouch:



I was going to get a Pelican 1085CC for the X230, but I'll see how it goes in the Lamington pouch first of all. It's way too small for the laptop pouch in my old Crumpler Sheep Scarer backpack and slaps about inside it, so hopefully the Lamington will pad it out a little

 

I picked this up for the car and concrete/patio around the house. It's suck an improvement on the old Homebase one we have.

 

Not my purchase, but my brother just got the old man a bottle of Seagrams crown royal whiskey

Sorry to drop this here but it is really worth a look: http://www.karcheroutlet.co.uk

 

The Karcher K2 is a great purchase and I wouldn't be without mine, but as Almightyrastus has said, you've paid too much for it Lots of us bit-tech detailing enthusiasts bought ours from Karcher Outlet during the summer - I think mine was less than £50 delivered.

 

I've not had a pressure washer from them (yet, that will be arriving in the new year) but I did get one of the steamers and that is awesome, brought up the wood floors like new and a 1l reservoir is far better than the pissy little thing you get on the overpriced upright things you get from argos or wherever

 

I knew I could get it cheaper but our other one died while I had already started washing the cars so I wanted it today. Thanks though!

 

no worries

 

It's been somewhat costlier month than my usual average. My 2006 Fiat Chroma started seriously acting up, so I decided to buy myself a new car.
