    I've just spent circa £600 on T-Shirts from the states (you can't get them here).

    I'm also watching a Garmin 405 on ebay and I've just bought the nike+ ipod thing and pouch as well. (cheers cojak)

    Purchases in next 3 months:
    new/slightly 2nd hand car thinking AMG or an SLK <45k
    new push bike something for the road <1k

    Selling my current push bike, motorbike and car though to fund all that.

    On them! On them! They fail!

      Are you opening a stall?
      I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

        After reading the thread about breadmakers I just bought one. Hooked already.

              Nice.

              We'll be necking some 1976 Chateaux Margaux Medoc at the weekend.

                Tis true. Here's my latest bike.

                Significantly more than 2ks worth of spare parts, that happened to just be laying around the garage...

                  Nice one!

                  I'd have worked my way through the beer too quickly, and ended up with a tricycle!

                  Got an off-the-shelf Focus Mares Expert to experiment with for a while. Entry level really. This weekend will be my first time ever with proper pedals. I anticipate one or two comedy slow-motion falls before I get used to them.

                    The local hardware shop had a Morphy Richards 48281 for less than 50 quid. I don't bake in the machine but just prepare the dough and transfer to a loaf tin or make rolls.

                    So far the results are great, never going back to shop bought bread again.

                      I only ever think of things I want to do and buy when I have time on my hands and no money.

                      I want one of these: http://www.newseas.co.uk/blokart.html

                      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
