Keeping healthy because my diet is rubbish!
 
Trying a low profile keyboard, it THOCK like nothing else out of the box, I am impressed. Great acccessories too, coiled cable, USB-C to USB-A adaptor, some spare keycaps including this copper one and a very posh keycap and switch remover.

I bought an hoodie. A Merlin Stealth Pro hoodie in fact. Urban looks but still AA rated gear so I can go past people and they can tut under their breath and say "Look at that idiot with no gear on"..... heh heh heh!!

This one, now I see the difference between yours and mine. I prefer yours!

Yeah, if I search Mario question mark keycap, a lot of them show up, actually the glitter one shows up, which is how I found it first but the sales page also have it like mine in plain yellow. In a cherry profile on Row 1 height.

Not sure if I can say where but it’s not off Etsy but direct from China, and it’s still like £19. Etsy sellers are reselling it for double.

Nice one, thank you!
 
Bit of a 'spensive week:
Wife's birthday, so packed her off to Mallorca with her best friend, then took full advantage of being left alone with the Amex...

1. Trying Huel over Yfoods - works out better value after Yfoods' shrinkflation ("Our customers definitely wanted 33% smaller bags, but to pay 22% more"). It's nowhere near as smooth (Pea protein doesn't mix as well as milk protein), but we've got a decent blender. Flavours are great.


2. New keycaps for my new Weikav Stars75-S (Gradient Cyan), to go with the Leobog Reapers. Stock switches (Axis Rouge) are okay, but the light diffusion is much better from the Reapers:





3. New Anker powerbank (25,000mAh, 165W) to replace the aging Ravpower 18,000mAh unit my Wife pinched.


4. Not sure if it counts as a full purchase (yet), but put the order in (and a hefty deposit) on the new car:






Kids will appreciate the extra legroom and I'm looking forward to exploring further afield with my son - we borrowed my Dad's trailer tent last year and had a fantastic time.

I saw one of these in Bristol the other week, Couldn't work out what it was at first but managed to catch it up and have a look, very nice motor and like the say the space inside is mental, like a moving Hotel room :p

We thought similar. Currently have a hybrid S-Max and previous two cars were the Galaxy (really miss the 240bhp Ecoboost!). There's so much more leg room for the rear passengers; my 13 year old son is nearly 6ft, so he'll appreciate it.

We test drove the top of the range demonstrator and my wife actually found it easier to drive and park than the S-Max. You're sat a lot higher and the Santa Fe doesn't have the stupid B pillar that really interferes with your view in the S-Max.

It's a lot of money, but we've had a pretty tough year with family bereavement and being told I can't get travel insurance to visit her family in Canada (I'm a Contaminated Blood survivor), so we said Eff-it and decided to spoil ourselves. We're going to meet the Canada lot in Mexico next year, at the hotel we stayed in for our honeymoon (which is costing almost as much as the car :eek:).

I know it's daft spending so much on a depreciating asset, but 90% of my compensation is secure/invested while we figure out what we want to do with the house, and whether we want to stay in the UK (whilst I can't travel as a tourist to Canada, my health shouldn't bar me from emigrating).
