If anyone likes torches (that's FLASHLIGHT in American)

The headphones I ordered from Gearbest got "lost" so they are sending another paid. The jacket also got "lost" so I got a refund. Not doing too well!

Oh I also ordered a pair of Nike SFB Gen2 Field boots (goretex light military boots - wanted some light gtx boots as rainy season is upon us!)

New front door lock as the current one has decided to start chewing up keys. Down to the last one now and panicking slightly. At least the house is occupied all the time now. Company: "We're processing orders as normal". Still waiting 10 days later.

New chain for my road bike from Wiggle. Not being despatched yet, but only ordered yesterday.

Birthday present for a friend from Blackwells. Ordered a week ago, not left the warehouse yet.

If you run a company and are swamped but continue to accept orders, you're on *the list*. Look at how Decathlon handle it and copy them.

2kg of cheese from the fantastic https://www.northumberlandcheese.co.uk

48 cans of Brewdog various as I haven’t been inside a supermarket for a month and I don’t intend to start now! My wife tends to view my beer requests as best serviced with ‘lowest cost bidder’. Hence ending up with 24 bottles of Kronenberg 🙁

1xPair orange superstar pedals for my Ripley.

1xmost of a drivetrain for my SolarisMax. Once fitted I expect it’ll have the same effect on the weather as the poster who has order a lawnmower.

2xBell. Mandatory for social distancing on the old railway path I use.

Postman is about the most exciting thing nowadays 😉

I've decided to literally put my money where my mouth is. I'm waiting on orders from Thornbridge, Five Points and Vocation.
Also a pair of binoculars (some threads can make your money burn as well as your blood boil)

Trying to work out the delivery timing so my order of yet another pair of running shoes to arrive when my wife is at work.
Ditto more beer.
I could do with a few things from PX too but can’t justify their delivery charge for so little.

Slightly lost track on this - spent all the money I’ve saved on not eating lunch whilst travelling switch work / on fuel on ‘stuff’.

Rest of the di2 bits I needed to convert my road bike, new bbq, various new clothes, os map to explore the local area on my bike solo from the front door, wall mounted parasol for the garden, new brake pads for various bikes, fork seals, fork seal driver, new decals for forks, suntan lotion, frame blanking caps and grommets for the di2 conversion, new bar tape......I’m sure there are other things.

Oh yes, some hair clippers, the dog is hot and can’t go to be cut professionally to I’m having a go when they arrive. What could possibly go wrong?

First pair of Hebtroco kecks.
Have basically worn sweatpants for the last 4 weeks, no real need for proper clothes, but had been looking for black jeans with no patch for ages and suddenly...
Excruciatingly expensive in EUR so hoping they last

That’s a fine effort 🙂 I’d expect hiding them post delivery might be a little harder than stashing a pair of shoes.

Tempest is great tho. Just been out on mine again. Perfect lockdown bike.

Muc-off order... appreciate they are helping key workers but no update on order is making me impatient, even though I knew it would be 5-7 days after placing order before it would be processed.

Need to order new pads, some kids gloves and a female saddle for my daughter so will be waiting on those after tonight's ordering.

Still waiting for a few things and I've not ordered anything until these bits arrive!

Nike SFB Gen2 Goretex boots in sage green
12 x Zebra 701 refills
Fiil T1 x headphones (1st pair didn't arrive, second pair in transit (or Mercedes Sprinter))
1 Aphex Twin sticker to replace the one I'd put on my bike and lasted 2 days before someone at work knocked my bike over and the only damage was the bloomin' sticker).

Had a mechanical out on my one a day ride yesterday and now need a Di2 wire.

Thought while I had the bike stripped and time on my hands that I would replace the frame bearings. Trouble is, I can only buy 2 at a time from my usual supplier; probably to stop Yeti owners panic buying.

I need 6, so will have to shop around.

Took the plunge and ordered a load of QD fittings for the brewing rig. If things go to plan, they should arrive just as the rest of the stuff does and just in time for me to brew another batch of beer

Bunch of Meters Music headphones and a B-Social practice amp from the Ashdown engineering B-Stock sell off, and a Hofner bass from PMT.
Decided to learn to play bass in lockdown.

Having taken the plunge and shaved my head with my little beard clippers, I’ve just ordered a Remington clipper thing that looks a bit like a computer mouse, so making future trimming/mowing a lot quicker and easier! £25, so as I’ve been paying £10 to have my hair cut, about once every month or so, it’ll pay for itself fairly quickly.
