What did you buy today ???

[Tony Nitrous]

What are those metal things, not the screws . . .

Just off the shelf pre-drilled plates, brackets.
I have a couple of posts and rails with rot at the joints and they will brace them up untill the builder gets here in 3 weeks time to start the bigger jobs.

Overpriced Coffee & toast at Sydney airport while waiting to fly to Hong Kong for work.
Keep an eye out for me on the News reports. I will be the only one getting beaten up without Jet Black hair

Tearing out the old (70's), installing the new.

Ordered a Carbtune Pro direct from the manufacturer, hopefully it will be delivered by the weekend so I can have some tinker time in the man cave - Fingers crossed things go to plan, it doesn't seem such a difficult task to do?

   No more toys for me for a while....


Just bought a new Mazda 3 Astina, kinda like this one -

[grog]

Good cars Vlad. Never see anything go wrong. Make sure you lock it at night, even in garage. Thats the signal for it to have a sleep.

Our existing car is a Mazda 3 Touring (the 2.0 litre) and aside from a dodgy touch screen - replaced by Mazda for free out of warranty - no problems.

And while this new one is more expensive than that one was, it's a 2.5 litre and is HEAPS nice with a very premium interior and all sort of good tech.

Mazda standard colour for the Astina interior is black and bright white leather. It's SO white it's horrible. You'd only need to look at it to get dirty.  I told the dealer we wanted the Astina and it was an absolute deal-breaker on the colour and I wasn't kidding. Especially since the Astina hatch has a maroon leather instead of white.

Anyway, nek minnit "we can get the interior custom trimmed for you sir, if you like, at no additional cost."

Done !

A Laser Level. Great value at 30 quid my other one was about 150 quid don't see much difference except the dearer one has a well known brand name.

[VladTepes]

I don't like laser levels coz they show how out of square my house is....
The only really good wall is the one I built !

I got a BEP 716-SQ-140A-DVSR to replace the rotary 2 battery switch in the boat.  Now to strip the old out & fit & wire up the new.

[Irish in Oz]

3 TRV's for the central heating, it's getting to hot for me so it needs to be controlled.

[MarkN]

Paint from B&Q- got to re-decorate the downstairs bog. Apparently it needs doing, or so I'm told. Looks fine to me but what do I know

[Kiwifruit]

New boots for the scooter. Had to order a 190/55/17 Mitchy Road 5. 50's and fronts they keep in stock but not 55's.
Will fit them before heading to the Wanganui Boxing day Races.
Interested to see how different they are. The old tyres have lasted very well but are quite square, the bike now rdes ugly.
