Useless without pics 😉
Reverb
A pair of Oakley Jawbones, half price at Sunglass Hut.
A lottery ticket. Well, we live in hope 😀
Sunline V1 flat bars for a bike I don't have.
I haven't bought anything bike related this year 😯
New pair of SLX brakes, tub of grease, and some train tickets!
Without being pedantic like some people, I've bought some Endura overshoes to complete my awesome Endura Man (as the ladies in the office call me)outfit and some CO2 Cartridges (Threaded) along with a litter picker, a BRC Issue 6 conversion course in Leeds, 3 tonnes of cranberries, 3000 litres of goats milk, 500 litres of Buffalo milk and I've got clearance from the wife to buy a new frame. And bars, and seatpost. And wheels. Possibly tyres but we'll see about that one.
12 months tax for a Mondeo.
Four half price Merlin passes.
32 spokes.
Niner Flat top bars.
Sunline V1 flat bars & stem, in silver.
And a 32gb memory stick for £15.
(Don't know if that was a good price but seemed cheap enough).
I went shopping at Asda tonight and BOUGHT a bottle of Grenadine, some Bacardi Breezer, a mojito mix, a bottle of cloudy lemonade, a carton of orange juice, some cheese filled paninis, a pack of ciabattas, some chilli beef bites, a sponge pudding and a tin of custard. Oh, and a bottle of Fairy liquid.
Whilst I was at the till paying, the fire alarm went off and the whole store had to be evacuated. This was both exciting (as it was the most eventful happening in Waterlooville for quite some years) and annoying (as by the time I got home, I'd missed the second half of Watford v Tottenham).
A shiny Berlingo 🙂
Hopefully it will soon be a bit dirtier, both inside and out.

It's almost as exciting as a Reverb as it has soft damped closing. No matter how hard you try and slam it shut, it just gently glides to the closed position.
Matt24k you should have put that beauty in the what toilet seat thread http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/talk-to-me-about-toilet-seats 😉
I've brought about world peace.
It's good to know that I am amongst like minded people 😀
