Got some parts all together...

First time I've put a PC together in years! Sure, I've fannied around upgrading mac minis, pros and my son's machine but this was first time for yonks I took to building from scratch.

Phenom mATX case, i7 7700k, 32GB 3200 DDR4... all in now, too.

Installed win10 on my 850 EVO, but will probably reinstall on to my m.2 that arrives today, as well as the 1080 SC.

All running well so far...

Oh, and I picked this up from my trip to the US

Ha!

Not sure this qualifies and have posted this in the Home and Garden section.

We've always wanted to do something with our garden but never had sufficient funds. That changed a little this year so bit the bullet and had a landscaper in to discuss some ideas.

It's not complete yet but sufficiently progressed for me to post. Some before and after pictures (shame the sun isn't shining and the 'before' pictures were taken after the project was started - it really was a mess) ...

There's obviously still a bit to do.

Love that fence!

Thanks very much; it's great to see initial ideas actually translate well into reality!

Stick some more photos in home and garden when you've completed it. I'm nosey and wanna steal your ideas!

Will do! Garden furniture and black zinc planters are next on the list of things to buy ... along with some more plants.

We're fortunate in that the guy we're using seems to really know his stuff - we spent a couple of hours at a trade-only garden centre discussing what we were after with him and picking out various plants. We'll be going back in a few weeks time to choose some more.

I don't know what it is about the fence but it reminds me of something you'd see in the Chelsea flower show displays or something along those lines from a designer garden. Nice colour as well.

Two of these were delivered an hour or so ago.

/edit - Postie's just been again with this.

New cycling shoes! Can't wait to fall off later while getting used to unclipping when stopped

It nearly put me off cycling. Ended up with some horrendous bruises.

Final away day of the season on Saturday so a few of us are getting our best shirts looked out.

Bought that this week!

It is really scary at first but you get used to it quickly and you won't want to go back to standard pedals.
