servants, can't have too many
And anything that pisses off the jealous types.
that’s priceless, an intangible benefit that keeps on giving long after the frisson of excitement at the moment of purchase fades.
Ice tools.
Nice Steyr. I've had a few FAS pistols in the past but always wanted to try a Steyr after owning an LG110 rifle.
I said I'd report when I hit Shiny Town...
Only seen one massive watch so far, but two mates have just ordered new cars.. cos the ones they have they bought this time last year, nothing new there then.
So sadly it's a disappointing report for y'as all.
Why is there a pressure gauge at the end of that pistol? Surely that means you have to look down the barrel to check the gauge :-/

Books. You can't have too many books.
Leather-bound books?
Boats, youre allowed to spend whatever you like on boats.
Italian speedboats?
BadlyWiredDog:[b]N[/b]ice tools.
FTFY. 😉
Cheap wellies are worn by people who do the gardening in them or take a stroll in the park. Expensive wellies are worn by those that have to work in them all day, walk long distances or want to look cool at Glastonbury.
@bikebouy Shirley they are advertising the fact they where uncertain about their bonus, those in the know ordered their boats and cars last year for delivery in the Spring 😉
As far as I have observed on here its not acceptable to buy expensive bikes or spend extra by buying from fhe LBS, stuff has to be used or bought off the cheapest possible internet supplier ideally a foreign one
And anything that pisses off the jealous types.
Yeah, that's it, it's jealousy that makes people laugh at you.
GPS running watches
Car winter tyres for those two or three days a year the temperature falls low enough to warrant their use.
Leather-bound books?
My sofa isn't leather.
Years ago we rented out our house for a TV company to make a commercial. They liked our living room, apart from the bookshelves.
"Have you read all those books?"
"Yes."
"Really?!"
"Yes - many of them several times."
"Well, most people don't read much - do you mind if we put wall hangings over most of them?"
Nothing wrong with buying expensive kit.
But buying kit just because it's expensive makes you look like a knob.
I think that's about it?
Italian speedboats?
yep, they're definitely allowed,as are scandinavian boats. The more impractical the better.
I disagree with the cheap wellie comment. I've had both expensive and cheap wellies and worked in both, but the cheap pair still live and are waterproof, whilst the expensive pair have fallen apart. I'll admit that they were no _really_ expensive ones (I.e. Le Chameau), but they were not cheap.
Tools. It's ok to spend money on good quality tools.
Good quality chocolate,
Shoes
Boots
Curtains - yes curtains. If you buy good fabric and have them made up professionally by someone who measures properly and knows what they're doing, the curtains will last for years.
As opposed to my IKEA ones that have crumbled to dust in a matter of months 😉
molgrips - you'll be using them to clean your bike with next year 😉
Curtains? We don't have those, proper wooden shutters here. 8)

Bike parts of course .
Probably cordless power tools as cheap ones are usually rubbish
Engagement rings I would imagine pass the 'J.Christ , I could buy a new bike for that and its tiny, but I just got to have it ' test. maybe .
Hair shirts
Well, I'm due to receive one made from Yak hair*, and it ain't cheap.
*actually it's Yak wool, but I won't let that get in the way. 😉
Old stuff? 1930s,40s,50s (some 60s kit) cars or bikes or boats or aeroplanes...
And tools, though nowadays great tools can often be bought for much less.
That's going to chafe a little.
A cock ring for the discerning gentleman.
Italian speedboats?
Now that is a thing of great beauty. Count those carbs.

I don't suppose you know any of those? 😉
An 'A3+ Printer' so my snake can have another expensive item to tinkle on.
Good job he's a hunk.
Anyone see "What to Buy and Why"?
