Stuff I want but can't bring myself to buy just yet

And you can legitimately put those through your company - go for it!

Both? In case one of them breaks?

Only if they're electric and there are 5 of them.

Mountain bike for when you need to cycle to clientCo through the woods, road bike when you need to cycle to clientCo on the roads.

Wouldn't a touring bike do as well for both? That's something I plan on buying in a couple of months.

Can't decide how chunky and mountain bikey it should be though, and how much is worth paying.

Luckily I know the feather light ones with wafer thin wheels wouldn't be at all suitable for me, which narrows down the choices.

• Nikon DF - Want to upgrade to full frame, but not shooting that much so not sure if a new camera will give me the urge to pick it up again, or I should wait till I am shooting more
• Sonos Play Bar + Additional Play 1's to create a surround sound for the living room and stereo for other areas
• New Car - This might happen in March when I pull of my yearly dividend depending on how the MOT / Service goes
• New Macbook Pro with Retina screen - My 2010 MBP just won't die!

Look at cyclocross bikes - I love my BMC Granfondo GF02 disc.
BMC Granfondo GF02 Disc 105 just landed

Put slicks on and it's pretty nippy on the roads too. It's quite happy with laden panniers for touring, and you can fit rack and guards.


But whilst it's great over rough ground, through the woods etc, it wouldn't be good for proper mountain biking if that's what you're into. I've got my mountain bike for that

New motorbike - pure want as I love my Bandit
New car - mostly want, I just don't like my current car ever since it got broken into (NB: I don't do "new" cars, so it's a £3-4k spend max)

However, if we can secure a mortgage I'm going to finally start checking some of these off that have been on our "Want but can't" list for years:

New interior for the Beetle
New bonnet/respray for the Beetle
New engine for the Beetle
New rack and pinion / wishbone setup for the Beetle

The last one is the I'm looking forward to the most, though.

About 100 screens in my Amazon "Saved for Later" area, going back years

Ah, yes, a Canon 7D mk II should have been on my list. For the 100 photos I take on holiday each year

I just want world peace

And tougher sentences for parole violators.
