Amazon won, finally. Temptation is just unfair, especially when you get $25 off automatically from Visa reward points.

So, the rack o' camera gear will be expanding on Friday, yay two-day shipping:


Sigma 150mm f/2.8 Macro http://is.gd/fUbM (plus a free 72mm UV filter http://is.gd/fUc9)

8-pack of Eneloop AA rechargeable batteries http://is.gd/fUbY

GorillaPod SLR-Zoom http://is.gd/fUc6 - the little tiny one I got for Xmas just won't cut it for anything larger than a P+S or maybe a flash.

 

Nice lens Firehed. The order for my new Canon 450D/XSi shipped out today, so I hope to get that next week some time.

 

- A set of electrician's screwdrivers - including test lamp.
- A couple of sketchbooks (A3, A4 and A5).
- "Millimeter" paper (I have no idea what you'd call this in English).

- 500g of sliced gourmet roast beef
- 1 jar of gurkins
- 2 red onions
- 1 loaf of french bread (you know, those meter long baguettes)
- 1 glass of french mustard

A man can live happily as long as he has roast beef available for lunch!

 

2 additional Samsung F1 750GB HDDs. RAID 0 goodness coming up!

Mirror's Edge, but it has yet to arrive in the mail

 

Think I'd better update this, been on a bit of a spree these past few days.

1 set of H4-fit Philips "Xtreme Power" headlights, supposed to be very good, and mine needed changing anyway. £22 online. Not tried 'em in the dark yet, they don't look much different in daylight.

1 Scalextric Digital "Rally Cross" set, comes with 2 cars, one Mitsubishi Evo 7/8/9 and a Bugeyed Subaru Impreza in classic 555 livery (my favourite version) from eBay. Barely used bargain tbh at £40 with some extra bits of track.

Also on eBay I treated m'self to an Aston Martin DBR-9, a Ford Focus WRC (4WD one too!), a Seat Leon WTCC and a Dodge Viper endurance car all for ~£16+pnp each, although I think I'll be selling the Leon, it's a bit boring tbh.
