I really rate this Urban. I've had several UKPKs over the years but none remains; I prefer the smaller form factor of this.
What did you buy today?
- Thread starter Nova & Pinky
- Start date
If they are the old E14 bulbs, you are looking for a dimmable warm led with same connector size. If you can post a picture and any writing on bulb stem I can have a look and see if anything that might be suitable.

Soldering iron. Now all I have to do is learn how to use it. Shameful to have reached my age without knowing how, but hopefully an opportunity to demonstrate that old dogs can learn new tricks.
Braces for my gorka* trousers.

How do you find the Gorka - Jacket and Trousers in general? I have looked at them in the past but dont know ( apart from you ) anyone that wears them. Overview please
Suggestion; Use them under the bee hive roofs to insulate them in winter. Sometimes the mice set up winter quarters in them as well.
Ordered a pan that can be used to fry over fire, an american mess tin.
Opportunity: JDplc who own Go-Outdoors are having a reorganisation.
Their Blacks stores (some or all, I don't know) are going to be closed-down, refitted and relaunched as Go-Outdoors Express. Staff have been told their jobs are safe and that this will all happen end January 2025.
In the meantime stocks are being reduced by having a 30% discount off their normal prices on most stock. Blacks do not currently use the Go-Outdoors discount card, but will after the re-brand.
For the same reason there is a returns limit date of end January '25.

A Spyderco Double Stuff for £40 from Stroppy Stuff https://stroppystuff.com/products/spyderco-double-stuff
A can of waterproofing spray and a tin of shoe wax for the Hanwag boots that I bought in Iceland.
A good Edam is a superb cheese. We seem to end up with tasteless waxy stuff here, but I brought a couple of rounds back from Amsterdam a few years ago that were epic.
I can’t believe I ended up chucking one and a bag of extra wool when I had to move.
Today I have mostly been buying a warm coat for Mimi dog as she’s standing shivering while I’m taking pics, plus some of those eye wipe pads for dogs as she’s got stuck in the eye by a stick or something and it’s infected and gunky. She gets those dark stains too.
Return postage for one Kaweco Sport piston filler fountain pen - you wait years for them to get their act together and finally make one, and then the ruddy thing arrives with a crack in the cap. Oh well, after all that waiting what's another week?
TOO LONG, that's what!!!!
(If this means nothing to you, replace "fountain pen" with "knife" and - Yeah? Got it? Annoying, innit?)
