Pick up a small hand held axe too for kindling, as you'll be chopping it thin, you don't want to be swinging that axe for it.

Hung it finally yesterday.

Fitted my new wheels which arrived. Love them!

Bought a baby carrier for Thailand at Christmas. Good job she loves it!

To go with my console as the original controller is still in the wrapper in the box.

I'm being thick, I think you need to explain.

Ahh sorry, it's a running joke in the retro gaming community, the original PSX controller was actually a Super Nintendo controller* modified with an extra pair of L buttons, ergonomic grips, and a slim connector. Sony have been tacking more things onto it for 20 years now, but it was 5 years old when they used it.

That pad does look badass though

*The Playstation was originally a joint venture between Nintendo/Sony before Nintendo pulled out and went with their Ultra 64 plan. The original development Playstations used SNES pads, hence why early ports like MK3 have identical cheat codes/etc.

Just curious, but is Thailand actually the name of your daughter, or the brand of baby carrier you purchased?

Oh I see, I was totally unaware of the running joke.

Fully aware though it started out as a JV with Nintendo.

How much!?

I swear I only paid a few quid for mine.
