Images of items I have purchased (except trainers [no feet pics])

Are those wall paints the diamond ones? I heard Dulux's diamond matt paints annoyed people because they had too much of a sheen to them, owing to the washability.

Why didn't you go with a Dulux satinwood for the trim?


Not sure about the diamond ones. Stanadard matt pure brilliant white. The blue is a washable paint and it is quite a thick layer of it.

I went for the bedec gloss as I saw it was well reviewed on this forum and on the toolstation reviews section of the website.
 
Many reasons. Mostly I keep trying to rekindle my old passion gaming but it’s just not the same. Outside of gaming I prefer Apple hardware / ecosystem.

Maybe pick up a SNES or N64 or something instead to scratch the nostalgia itch. :p

Picked up on FB Marketplace from a murder death kill house about 10 miles away.
 
As someone who preaches veganism, do you not think it's a bit wasteful? All plastic waste etc, buying a ton of products repeatedly - is harmful to animals in quite a big way. I mean I don't care personally. Or is this your way of equalling it out? :D This is legitimately the way a friend sees it. If he eats no meat, he feels happy about all the crap he buys repeatedly.

As much as we love to wind up @LiE and his purchasing decisions I will say that most of his stuff gets sold on etc. so ultimately, is it wasteful?

Picked up a 12 Mini, got it for £540 brand new so chuffed with that:

Also, not so much a purchase but I bought a repair on my favourite jeans, something very pleasing about repairing something rather than replacing:

Good choice, love my 12 mini. £540 is a great price.

I agree, I don't see it as wasteful because I sell it on, so the new owner didn't end up buying new. The net outcome is the same.

Thanks mate, yeah I did well, was ~£600 and then bundled it with the recent 10% eBay off. Figure when the new iPhone comes out this year (if it takes my fancy), I'll be able to claw a lot of that back. It was your recent posts that convinced me to go for the mini, great shout. I'm not sure it's even all that small, the screen is slightly bigger than the original Galaxy Note 1, after all. Amazing how much of a punch it packs.

Agreed on the selling on point, that's always been my philosophy. The wasteful argument could be used if you were chucking it in the bin... but clearly you're not.
 
Decided to get a Logitech g915 TKL (£149 new) after my very old Corsair K70 started having issues with double typing, and got a wooden wrist rest as-well delivered today, perfect height for the keyboard at only 1CM height, much slimmer than the normal wooden ones you see, also blends into the desk haha
