Kept the postie busy the last week:

2 new tyres.
Bottle of chain lube.
2 chains.
2 chainrings.
New wireless router.
New bottle of tubeless sealant.
New work uniform.
My sister's birthday present.

Still awaiting a new BB and few christmas presents from Amazon so the pile of empty boxes by the door will continue to grow 😀

Excitingly, a clock for the garage. The normal passage of time will now be restored in there, and I'll no longer finish a job, come in for a beer and discover it's 2am.

OK, I'm a twisted little bastard but even I couldn't maintain an erection if my partner was dressed as a ****ing snork from Stalker.

Not for me or the other half.

But it might suit you NW. There's a comfy velour blanky in the lower sleeping chamber.

Nothing 🙁 but I've just ordered a Google Home and hopefully I'll see it in a couple of weeks.

Been selling stuff this week and only delivery is a new washing machine as my old one has finally given up.

We have had one of those Karcher mops for a few years after watching how quick you can clean all the floors in a chalet after a week of grubby bikers. They are very good and worth every penny.

Awaiting the postie anxiously now, had an expensive week after deciding my bike isn't going to sell...so I may as well upgrade it! New brakes fitted (purchased from lbs) awaiting sixc cranks and DT Swiss xm1501's! Need to sell some stuff fast as wife will blow her lid when she checks the bank

A Reverb cheap from Wiggle. I don't have a bike that it fits.

An interim cheque for my personal injury claim. Which might get spent answering this question.

http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/another-which-bike-thread

thereby possibly addressing the first, speculative purchase.

TurnerGuy wins most STW photo dump of the week

just moved house as part of the divorce and therefore needed a lot of stuff.

Turner guy - is that Karcher steam mop any good? I fancy one for my stone kitchen floor.

going to try it today - there was so much mould in my new house (got it at a good price, just as well considering the divorce) I have used loads of bottles of HG mould spray and have loads left, but thought the steam cleaner might be a bit better for my health than having the house smell like a swimming pool after a chemical spillage.

Its the SC5 one which is a bit more powerful and allows a jet of hot water as well when needed, and you can buy an iron attachment so can be a backup to my LauraStar iron.

Other than it's not taped, never been indoors, I don't own a Audi and it gets slung in the boot covered in mud your cock on, the only STW stereotype is see is you ya ming mong.

5 NOS Ritchey Rock Comp front wheels. I needed two rims for a build but they are going for silly money, found a bundle of 5 full wheels so will sell one to cover costs and then have a new set for the build and two spares for when I wear them out.

Pretty happy about it actually.

Nothing. Was supposed to be an SLX brakeset from Ribble, the one I started a PSA about. Royal mail have only gone and "lost" it somewhere.

Only problem is that Ribble are sold out and I won't be finding another set at that price anytime soon. Guess it's hack to bargain brake hunting for me...
