Wouldn't it be great to commute in one of those.

Perhaps not in this weather.

Wow, yes. I've seen one at a science festival (I was at an archaeological conference, it trundled past a window, and all conversation just stopped....), it was on casters and the chap just sat in it, and pushed it about with his feet. Imagine it pedal powered! (I suppose you could use a unicycle fixed inside it, or something like that.

This one also had a waterpistol death ray...:biggrin:

Oh dear, I might have to make that....

I have treated myself to the following today:-


  • One Hope Vision 1 front light
  • One Blackburn Mars 3.0 rear light
  • 4x 2700MAh batteries and charger
Yes I needed to buy my commuting lights...

I bought one of those a couple of years ago from Prendas, really comfy, washes well and "Best young rider" (over 62:biggrin:)
 
Can you count buying a 1tb back-up drive a 'treat' (week before last) or was it a necessity? I did treat my impoverished daughter to a new mobile phone last week though, which was enjoyable.

Later, I'll be treating myself to the one glass of sherry a week that I ration myself to. I shall sip it whilst watching the family of thrushes hopping about having their daily twilight feed on my lawn.

I have been really naughty this week. Got myself a Topeak mini morph pump, some Scott 3/4 winter bib tights and a red Altura pocket rocket jacket.

I must say I like the idea of the Specialized adaptalite glasses.

My missis is killing me with kindness. Last night, she brought home a bottle of white wine and a twix. I was determined to have neither but ended up having half of one and all of the other.

Mrs Speck phoned me from work (Sainbury's) and said "do you want an air-con unit reduced from £250 down to £50" I replied "no, but you do".

So I will put it and her in the spare beadroom during hot flush time. lol

Genuine AC or just one of those freestanding fan jobbies?

She's just arrived, took two of us to carry it in! It has a condensor so should be a proper job or the sh1t will hit fan:biggrin:

I hadnt realised that this thread had life in it still...someone asked where the jersey was from..
I can't exactly remember ... it may have been Prendas.
But one thing to remember when ordering Italian.. order a size up!
