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

[Whoop]

What did your friend buy?

She bought a Taylor GTe Urban Ash as she is quite a small person and they didn't have any Martin Dreadnought Jr in stock.

Hopefully not that wallpaper. I think I'm about to turn epileptic.

It came with the house! It's quite nice when not in a close up photo

Seriously though? Nice T5z. What made you get it? They are not your usual 335 or Hollowbody, and I guess you tried the Acoustasonic? Designed by the same guy for the T5.

It's actually a T5, the Mahogany Classic. I've played a Taylor 314ce for years now and I very much prefer an acoustic to an electric so it was a good match for me with it having the same neck I like. The string gauge is 11-49 but I might take it up to 12s to give it more acoustic twang (at the cost of more tension on bends if you use it for electric tones).

I need some thread lock actually, nice reminder!

I got some airtight storage.

Might just be the writing, but that's an unusual 'Russian Caravan' on the end

Ah, then snap!

Maybe you have 25 bags of sharing size Doritos half eaten in the cupboard?

Doritos gets finished before the clips are used...

Smokey loose leaf tea! Smells like what you expect a Russian caravan to smell like, or something Soviet

Having a mate with a large fruit farm and caravan site full of Eastern Europeans, just reading that instantly brought the smell back to me.

We were little ***** when younger and used to start egg fights with them. All fun and games until they locked us in a caravan for half an hour and we nearly gagged to death.

I just couldn't press the button for £70!

I also have non protein Weetabix! Just not in a container. Need to make sure nobody confuses them on sight alone.

Golden Oreos taste the best dunked in tea. If you know you know!



Who are you the containment king?

Easy access is the motive here, the Weetabix box is always a faff, the bricks don't slide out easily and you end up pinching them out by which point they break apart anyway. The golden Oreo biscuits are best in a container, the packets are not resealable and again, easy access

Count 3 biscuits down in the packet, get a knife and pierce through and slice open. Then the fourth one you can just squeeze out easily. Then back in the box they go. Next time you then pour the flakes into the bowl and repeat the process.

I love these, but weirdly from a bag of like 30, I only have 5 left!

I’m the same. I even use them on everything.

Some more BBQ bits.

You need these in your life https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/bevara-sealing-clip-set-of-30-mixed-colours-mixed-sizes-10339171/

I got given one of these and love it for sealing regular freezer bags. Handy for separating larger quantities and storing.

Got a clandestine activity apparatus:

I am now knackered. They make it look so easy on... websites. I thought I was getting really good with just a straight and parallel bars but rings are a whole new level of difficulty. These will definitely turbo boost my goals/gains.

Oh this isn't gaggy at all! It's nicely smokey, hard to describe you really do have to smell it. If you ever are near a tea shop take a whiff of Lapsang Souchong, the smell is identical to that really.

This sounds like a bit of faff when I can simply open lid, pour two flakes into bowl, close lid

RIP libido.

 

[robfosters]

Just embrace the baldness

 

[Raymond Lin]

Bought knobs.

 

[soundb0y]

Bought an electric strimmer after loving the chainsaw. Unfortunately im not too thrilled with it. Power is great but im running out of juice after 10 minutes good strimming which doesnt cut the mustard.

Ordered a couple nock off 9.0ah batteries off ebay. If they dont make it any better ill be looking to return or sell.

Before and after shots please!

This thread has cost me a fortune.

Keep it up.

I wouldn't be too sure. Looking at the tablets on the left he'll get a milf arm out of it

I bought one a few weeks ago too, mine came with 2 batteries and you are right. 1 lasts about 10mins! but they take about 4hrs to charge a single battery.

I might get the petrol one out, have one somewhere....

Neither could I so I bought it online for £61.85 with free delivery.
