What did you buy today ???

[grog]

Looks a winner Irish. No help at all from Ikea. Very good. Today i bought some Antex, have millions ants here but spread this around, seems to be less. Also fitted a new grip to golf club, never done that before, seems ok. Pest Controller & Golf Pro all in one day. Happy Old Man. Dont you love a newfound talent. 😂

Grog, I am very impressed with the Ikea software, they checked over it in the store all OK. This is the third kitchen I've done the last one was in Oz Kaboddle, like the rail mounting system on Ikea and drawers.

My wife bought a tank bag from ebay for me and it's a belter! Loads of compartments for stuff, clear map pocket on the top and also one on the base plate if you don't need to use the bag itself. The bag is two bags really as it can be unzipped if you don't need to use all the storage and just put one or the other on the baseplate. It's made of quite durable looking material and also comes with a waterproof cover.

It can even turn into a rucksack so you don't have to worry about leaving your stuff behind or carrying an unwieldy shape around with you
No designer label on it, in fact I can't find a makers name anywhere, but it's bloody brill - and only £19.99

@Tony Nitrous do you have a link to the tyre gauge and the battery adapter thingy?

I forgot I bought the 18V USB charger. I have a LOT of Ryobi 18V tools and that was the first time I'd seen the USB charger (In Bunnings)

The tyre pressure gauge is on of Supercheaps own. I have a few different ones but I use them at home, work, drags etc so it's good to have a few. Can't remember the price.

Today I bought...... nothing.

This still surprises my wife. On New Years Eve I put together enough money for a new bike and to return to Cambodia and Thailand.  My wife (who knows me very well) is constantly surprised I make it home without visiting a bike shop or travel agent.

I'm not sure how long I can't last at this though....

I bought myself a birthday pressie for this weekend.

Major bucket list car achieved & it lives up to the hype. The noise & performance when floored is amazing, but then a 380bhp supercharged V8 does that right?

[Kiwifruit]

I like that model Hooli, looks nice in silver. 

[grog]

Hooli, very nice. I dont often praise Pommy cars but they are awesome. Had a drive of one. You would like some of our Aussie muscle cars. One of the best is xr6 ford. no internal mods really needed for big power, video from memory is 450 bhp, mate at shop near my work has one with 1500 on dyno, still idles at 1000 revs. His just lights up rear at throttle touch. Yeah, 1500 bhp. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9d5QDDeLjBs

[Hooli]

I've been doing bits on it today & I'll have to buy secondary timing chain tensioners as it's got the mk1s fitted that are known to fail. There is also an issue with it pressurising the fuel tank when on boost, which I suspect is a dodgy valve in the emissions control rubbish fitted.

At some point this year it'll need a belly rub & fresh underseal too.

[Sweaty]

Good onya Hooli, that's a nice classy/sporty looking beast 

[Tony Nitrous]

Alcohol free red wine, tastes OK.

[Globalrider]

Nooooooooo........ that's all wrong Tony!!! 

[KiwiCol]

There's a Zero % beer too.  Russians make it, (Baltika I think it's called) in a white can.  Tastes very nice & is a great quencher.  Can join in with others having a beer, but you're not taking in any alcohol.  Had it myself a few times, don't buy it all the time, but do occasionally.

[Taniwha]

Coopers have started making a 0% abv beer. I had to do a double take to make sure my eyes weren't playing tricks on me when I saw it in the Service station fridge. I wasn't game to buy one at $6.50 tho.
