Can’t believe bin men of the 70s carried those bins over their shoulders. Just a memory
Tell me about it! Carrying them back to the car was enough for me. The lidded one is surprisingly heavy and that’s empty
Upgraded the pillar drill from a basic get by Nutool to an Axminster Workshop AW680RD Floor Radial Drill, have no idea where I'm gonna put it but its an upgrade : )

I bought an Aiguille bum bag, a Vinted bargain. Often I've wondered if a bum bag could be useful for when out walking, especially for storing my mirrorless camera in, now I can try it out and see if I like it or not.
I do love a bum-bag but always feel slightly self-conscious wearing them. Don't know if it's bad flashbacks from the '80's or something else! Of course, the youngsters wear them these days to keep their stash in, but usually across the chest.I bought an Aiguille bum bag, a Vinted bargain.

But in that shy, retiring colour, it's not like anyone would notice it...
Bought parrot food. Not exciting. Only exciting if I haven't bought parrot food, and then it's exciting in a shrieking, beak-applying way, and no-one wants that kind of excitement.

Not bought as such but recovered a brand new right angled genuine 80s/90s army torch from my parents house.
I put batteries in for old time sake…..
It’s a wonder we didn’t bump into everything back then, bright it is not.

LED replacement bulbs are not expensive and fit straight in.
Yeah, I'm not particularly fond of the look of a bum bag on myself, and would feel self conscious out in public, I'll just keep it in my backpack until no ones around
I think it's going to be great for my camera, having easy and quick access to it.
I don't know what colour it's coming out as on your screen, I had to adjust the hue as it came out very blue in the photo when it's in fact closer to the Karrimor purple. It looks good on my laptop, but looks a very vibrant pink on my mobile phone, so either my laptop or my mobile phone has very poor colour rendition.
It's a very bright purple on my calibrated screen - probably a bit brighter than I remember the Karrimor purple TBH.
