Two big lumps of foam for outfitting my new kayak.
A schwalbe durano plus for the commuter. Whooo!
Was trying to spin it out for another month or two but I must have knocked my mudguard and there's a decent groove in the sidewall that I'm not happy about at all.
Still it's done 4-5000 miles, got my moneys worth out of it.
Letter from BT saying prices are going up in April (I thought I had an agreed deal until September?)
TM Lewins catalogue, cos there's a "y" in the day
2 wimmin's clothes catalogues, one for wife, and one for previous occupant who moved out over 2 years ago.
Park PCS-10 Workstand (old cheap one fell to bits at the weekend)
Park tool tray for the above
Park P-Handle allen key set as I've always fancied one
Park Mug for work as my work mug is perma-stained and it looks horrible
Royal Matrix Jacket as my old Altura one is no longer waterproof - only lasted about 17 years 😆
2 mystery packets from China. I order a lot of little things from china, for my toy side business/stupid hobby and it's great because in the 4-8 weeks they take to arrive, I totally forget I ordered them, so every one is like a secret santa from past me.
1kg of grade A peri-peri billtong! 😀
A Dirt Flap - can't wait to try it out tonight!!
🙂
203mmm disc and a very short but light stem. All up, €30
A letter saying my rent is going up to £67.50/week, could be worse i suppose
Still nothing. I'm remaining calm* about my first world non delivery issue
* mostly calm. With occasional 'How HARD CAN IT BE' thrown in.
Also still waiting. Da dum, da dum, da dum da dum......
It's only fork oil and grease, but still, my lad could do with a serviced fork before the weekend.
So far this week the postman has left three "sorry we missed you" cards. One should be my Mamil Sports hoody, one should be a seatpost bought through here, the third is something for MrsMC. Will be like Christmas here tomorrow once I've been to the parcels office.
Today the Royal Mail appears to have delivered my package to the wrong delivery office instead of to my work, at least I think that's what's happened because funnily enough the term "mis-sort" is not in their online glossary of tracking terms but it is in my tracking report for my packet. 👿
2 x 180mm rotors, an ACS claw freewheel, and a T handled T25 tool.
The SS bike's getting some upgrades!
a A set of clear lenses for riding glasses came on Wednesday, old pair were sooo scratched I couldn't actually see out of them. Waiting on my first set of contact lenses bought online, and a book from Amazon today
spendy
chapeau short sleeve merino and long sleeve merino base layers , too big

A cheap rendition of an Avid HS1 disc from Hong Kong.
Loads of Lego Star Wars from their recent sale.
Train to Busan Blu Ray
Draper Third Hand Cable Puller
Schwalbe G-Ones. First one mounted to Ksyrium and on the bike full of Stans in 10 minutes. This tubeless game is easy 😉
Front & rear mudflaps for my caddy (it's the simple things) and a pair of powerbeats 3 earbuds for a friends birthday.
A Toslink Optical splitter for the TV/Surround interface.
Some Vitoria latex tubes and a pair of long valves. Can't get excited about inner tubes but will be excited when my new deep section carbon wheels arrive.
A Mobi pressure washer, means I can wash the bike down at the end of the ride rather than in the car park when all the mud has set solid as I get home!
Should get my Team Surrey hat and midlayer today. Unfortunately it'll be a few weeks before the cycling kit arrives, so I might have to race the first national XC in old Bikesoup kit or some borrowed plain stuff 🙁
It's arrived. Apparently there is a second package that has the wheels in 🙂

[s]Still waiting...[/s]
scrap that - just arrived. Rock Oil and Stendec grease.
Epic charger damper bleed kit (to home) and a Minion DHR2 2.4WT to the office, Still waiting on new Lyriks, hope tech35 wheels and 2.5WT Minion DHF to be able to switch my Spitfire from 26" wheels to 650b.
Alpkit bivi bag 🙂
Alex, did it come like that, or in a box?
= :87)
Postman brought me 2 rims just now, one 30mm internal, the other 24mm, and they're not 26" (shock horror).
It came in two boxes.. nicely packed but they did have quite a long time to do it 🙂
Optical splitter arrived..minus the two optical cables for it 🙁
My new orange Soul 275 arrived at my mums, I shall be picking it up at some point early next week, along with the Evoc bike bag that's hopefully going to arrive soon.
Nomos Club Glasboden, one of those expensive watches that some people don't see the point of:-)
Spyre brake calipers for the darkside bike. Decided against cable actuated hydros in the end. The Spyres are well reviewed, hope they live up to it.
Pink Floyd - Animals (Vinyl)
A set of 6 IPA glasses.
And the Xiaomi Mi Band 2 I had to pay £18.62 UPS charge on for a £22 item 😀
This thread has made me feel so happy that nothing arrived for me today. I find the stream of internet orders coming through the post deeply unsatisfying and almost anxiety inducing. I hope not to buy anything for a very long time.
Nowt. I went to a shop and bought a super light tarp & hammock. 🙂
