£30 to have an original pencil sketch of "Girl Genius" framed (Vol 5 p12 to be exact).

 

Just got my first dremel through the post - a lovely new Dremel 3000

 

A tenner well spent me thinks. Decade old S-IPS panels. :3

 

Sewing needles, fur trim (real,) buttons, edging, patterns, artificial sinew and superglue. All set for phase two of sewing this costume. Needs moar pics.

A domain name, (my 27th heckkk!),

And one of these:

 

Sarakon, I have the same mouse, It is actually quite a good bit of kit, decent size (even for my fists of ham) and it also has a decent weight to it, shame it doesn't have removable weights though.

Just so you know the white LED strip on the middle of it; at night it is quite bright, I have mine set to what they call the breathing mode so it fades in and out, looks pretty cool.

 

Good choices Sarakon. I don't regret buying my cm storm quickfire rapid with blues, but I kinda wish I waited for the quickfire pro with browns. I've also got the Inferno mouse and love it, I like the software and the ability to have a bunch of macro keys bound to it. Have all my media features set to it (play, pause, next, back, volume up and down). Both are only a year and a half old but aren't showing any signs of wear, besides some of the text on the mouse wearing off.

 

Good to hear. The mouse was exactly what I was looking for. Have a Steelseries Ikari white at the moment, but it is a bit too light and the plastic on top gets dirty really easily and makes my hand sweat. It has seen better days and I thought it was time for an upgrade.

I had no idea what switches to go for so just went with the browns as they are regarded quite well for new comers and kinda the middle of the road. Really looking forward to them arriving beginning of next week.

Yeah, getting back into 10th Touring Car... this is going to be an expensive year.

 

Amazon found it in their hearts to allow me to return my 46" UE46F6800 and get the 55" instead. Can't-wait.

So in a nut shell, this:



in 55". You don't get that wow factor when you're watching a movie with smaller tv's imo. I sit about three meters from where the tv is set up.

 

Good call on the upgrade.

It's a well known fact that on account of the phenomenon of screen-shrinkage, the 46" would have been a 32" within 18 months.

 

Amazon Cheesecake. Seriously what a wonderful company to deal with.

 

Went on a manly shopping spree:

Pure badger shaving brush by HMJ


Proraso shaving cream


Asus GTX660 DirectCUII OC 2GB. Went into my HTPC, it's a great little card. Time to quell the latest console peasant uprising w/ true 1080p@60fps living room gaming


Bosch 190 PMF E multifunction tool.

 

Bought a friend's now out of service PSU for my new server. It's actually a pretty beefy unit.

 

27 domains? I expect you are either a freelance developer or you've wasted a lot of money?

 

Leaning towards the latter

I bought Octodad and train tickets home last week.

This week I think I'll be buying some more train tickets to Loughborough, along with various food for LAN this weekend
