Couple of things I had on the wishlist which came up on Amazon's recent discount day.
And support was ending for my old Firestick.

Which VPNs? I've tried several during the 3 times I've been this year and all failed.

Last year I didn't have any issues.

Bit late to reply but my wife is there now and using ExpressVPN.

Bought a new TV to replace the temporary LG C2 OLED you can see at the back, which is usually my PC monitor. I lost my 8K LG 65" Nano95 to my ex

when I moved out. Excuse the mess, still sorting all sorts of stuff out in the apartment.

Also, new perfume

To go with the collection...

Nice choice on the aftershave. I bought that one after liking the original gentleman version so much. I also have a collection of decent clones as well which you should also look in to.

Been in the middle of Lidl again and picked up a nice little chain sharpener for £20.

I hope it makes my bike go faster.

Why do you want to sharpen your chain?

Tried that, didn't work for me. In the end used a data eSim which worked flawlessy so ran with my phone as a hotpot.

It’s only about 5 years old that one, if you’re in the area again the motel heading away from Swindon on the 420 is nice, good grub too.

My Eldest living in Faringdon is the main reason (can't stay at hers easily at moment) but those supermarkets ect feet away is great to grab a bottle of red and.nibbles !
Latest development is I fired of an email about a few things I wasn't happy about on this visit and got an evoucher for the full amount today

Looks much more homely, a great improvement. Are you happy with the change?

I prefer the wood, but have full faith in the dog to mess up the carpet so the wood returns

Thanks and yes, very much so.

There was a large rug but cleared the room before taking the The carpet makes it feel brighter and goes better with the colour scheme (we had it decorated earlier in the year)

Also there is an almost 6ft deep void under the room so was prone to drafts when it was bare boards
