Photos Latest Purchases Thread: v2.0

One of the last pieces of my gear for my big paintball trip coming up in June.

 

I'll grab one next week, can't imagine they are overly expensive

 

No pics...but my Desire HD, and Tapatalk Might not seem like the best buy, but my other choice would have been a Sensation, and that would be £600 or so...I payed £270. I'm also on giffgaff...saving me even more

Sent from my Desire HD

 

Various WC spacers and LEDs to work on Elemental Nocturne and Whaler's Heading.

 

36 feet of 3.5" Velvet blackout tape for my projector screen. eBay cheesecake.

 

I bit the bullet, I've put £500 down on a Yamaha Diversion. Ought to have it by next Wednesday

CANNOT WAIT!

 

Just remembered to nab an ATX depinner with my order. Sure could use that for these custom connectors...

 

Nice! Congrats!

Wish I had a full bike license... 50cc scooters won't break any speed records (or speed limits for that matter)

 

I had a quick whizz about on an unrestricted naked model in the garage forecourt, god damn it was quick! Amazingly easy to ride too, I was terrified of dropping it but it was unbelievably stable, and the inline four engine is so smooooth.

What's stopping you getting your license?

 

Went out to buy a 50mm f/1.4, found out that prices have gone crazy in the past couple of weeks, ended up buying some booze instead.

Now to wait for items to arrive.

 

lol, booze is always the smartest thing to purchase
although the 50/1.4 is pretty impressive

 

iPad 2 64GB Wi-Fi. No matter what you say about Apple, it's truly a lovely lovely bit of kit. Uber fast and responsive. Makes my iPhone 3G feel like wading through treacle.

And world of goo on multitouch? Brilliant, I can play with my twins and smudge the screen with jammy fingerprints in a third of the time!

(And if anyone is interested, the £3 inc delivery silicone cases you can get from Amazon are brilliant for the money)

new HTPC Keyboard i hope it is ok could not find may reviews

 

Yeah, I can imagine. Great sound from those as well.


What's stopping me? Economy, basically. It will cost me about 2500-3000£ just to get a license. Then I need to get a bike, and then insure it. Insuring a bike at my age could be pretty damn expensive. It's simply not worth it for something I can use for about 5 months a year.

 

Just bought The Game of Thrones book as the first episode of the TV show interested me, also about to buy Portal 2. Sadly I'm not allowing myself to read/play either until my dissertation is finished and submitted

 

£2500 for the license!?!?!

It cost me a bit over £500 to do all my tests and training!

£500 down on the bike with £150 per month, but I can pay more per month and reduce the cost. The horrid part was insurance (a touch over £1000) but I really want a bike and after that initial year, assuming no spills, it'll come down dramatically.

 

Second hand (but broken) 2009 Trek 1.2 Double to use as a donor bike to fix up my lamp post-meeting bike.

Its now going to be an awesome zombie bike.


oh, and a bottle of Badoit.

 

A haircut.

 

You've hit a lamp post now as well? I mean killing buses is all well and good, but an innocent and defenceless lamp post is a whole different ballpark.
