Pair of merino wool glove liners for £8, and an attempted endura MT500 shorts purchase from LBS, but they only had Large not fat boy specials. Not exactly single handedly defeating the credit crunch, I'm sure you've done better. Bits are good, bikes are betterer though..

Some Specialized '10 Dexter wind/water resistant gloves
The Specialized concept shop in harrogate had pretty much every other glove they do except for that glove in my size. Evans (even online) only seem to do the summer specialized golves
They haven't satisfied my urges to buy bike stuff though. Must .. buy .. something ..
