But that's free heating! (Paging Cras to double-check my physics.)

They are bulbs and not LED, I did not think you could get non-LED bulbs any more.

Not all types were “banned” and even then existing stockpiles can be sold.
Smaller halogen bulbs are still fairly common.

Had this from the local furniture shop the other day.

Inside the shop, they sell posh stuff that I can't afford, but out on the front, they put out cheap second hand bits and as I walk past is most days, I always end up seeing stuff I like, but don't necessarily have the room for. No idea where I'm going to put this yet as I'll need to clear some space, but hopefully it'll become another console testing area. Seems worth the £15 anyway.

Looks well worth £15!

Jazzy basically lives in Disneyland, now :D

Every time you acquire some new shiny, it is Disney themed! :D

This is huge, thick and so soft. I'd wear it all day if I could.

I bought a paperweight for a week (or longer. We’ll see).

I bought a load of wood, and some strapping men to turn it into a lean-to.

That lean to is massive! I love it.

Post subject:  Re: What have you bought?

It's pretty hefty, for sure. It is designed to fit six socially-diatanced guests (and us). By the time they're actually allowed to come around again the heaters might have arrived.

Has there ever been a photo of your desk without a can of fizzy pop?

I'm going to say "no".

It's probably always Pepsi Max, too.

That's a fantastic lean-to. Where's the BBQ, Pizza oven and Hot tub going to go?

You can see the bbq at the end.

Your lean-to is bigger than our flat :D

It looks ace. I hope it makes for safe gatherings for you all soon xx

That's because it's a lean-four.

Author:  Mimi [ Fri Nov 13, 2020 13:43 ]

It’s a lean 6+

I like to think that by ‘us’ you mean the forum. Totally looks big enough.

Yeah, but he's still got all those strapping men hanging about, so they take up some space.

Also, on the PS5. Not trying to yuk anyone's yums, but the PS5 controller is an ugly old thing, isn't it? Looks like it will be immediately grubby and looks somehow unfinished (though reviews suggest it's a thing of wonder to play with, which is what matters, obv).

Yeah, Sony aren't winning any aesthetic wars this time around, either with the console or the controller.

Playstation controllers are always ugly, but if they work... it's ok.

I don't think any PS controllers have looked bad? Only need to work well anyway like you say.

The PS5 itself is a bit of a monster though!

I much prefer the PS controllers over the Xbox. The Xbox sticks always feel too high that make accuracy in twitch shooters more of a pain. And the buttons are better.

The new Xbox controller is disappointingly the exact same thing again. But with a share button! Whoop.
