You don't like your petrol much, do you?....

It's a weekend toy, and the island is only 23 miles wide! I'm driving back to the Midlands in a few weekends time though, I'm plotting the petrol stations along the way already

Teh car:

This isn't my actual one, but it's the exact same spec. Kuro model 100 of 500. I pick it up on Wednesday with a fresh set of tyres fitted ready for the summer

Good choice!

I would have got one if it wasn't for the road tax, couldn't stomach nearly 500 quid a year. Enjoy!

I got another new crank for my bike. This is the fourth crank I've had in > 1 year. First one was an octagon instead of a square when I got it, so it fell off. I stepped on the second one and it snapped in half. Today I was tooling around on my bike and I found a hairline crack so there's another one gone.

Bought some C6 Z06 Exhaust manifolds and highflow cats for the C6. Turns out these are a 20-30rwhp gain on LS2's so cheap power ftw!

Why not just get a normal pair of headers? They flow much better than factory manifolds.

What sort of cranks are they?
That's some serious bad luck.

Might want to ask Sir Chris Hoy for some spares!

A shirt that resembles the jersey, the jersey is so expensive (I couldn't find any anyways), I went with the next cheaper alternative. A shirt that resembles the jersey (and a scarf), ready for the AFC Challenge Cup in 2014 - Nothing against Israel either, I'll try and find a jersey and scarf for them as well.

Both around $30 ($10 scarf, $20 for the shirt) free shipping. I got the scarf a month before.

A new key for the car. $450. Yes indeed, that's $450 for just a key.

 

[Mr. S]

It was only $4.98 on Steam... $100 every three months for that and SWTOR isn't exactly what you'd call cheap, but $8 a week isn't too much so I'm okay with it

Same. Then again, I believe if you are really into it you can pay with in-game currency - but who knows how much you gotta play to achieve that.

BTW, what phone is that?

Had one of those "buy two get one free" things from Gamestop, so I bought a few things I'd wanted to get but never did:

HTC One

Got my parking brake cables from Toyota today. I only got the left and right pieces, totaled $131.48. Pics. will be in Snappy's thread

 

[W3H5]

A van for tomorrow to move house. It's only a hire, I'm not buying the thing. I doubt I'll even fill a 10th of it with my stuff, my wife's wardrobe, on the other hand......

 

[Pupik]

I want a mini truck I can actually drive on a real public road. Srsly...it's either fill up my hatchlet, or rent a U-haul.

Luggage warranties cover virtually nothing, airlines cover even less, but are permitted to render all zippers useless. So, new luggage:

Ignore the three piece set, I found a 21" and 28" spinners without the 24" and it all cost me less than buying both piecemeal three years ago. Yays! I can now push my bag down the little aisle!

The drawback is that the spinner luggage takes away an inch or two of packing space. So, choose wisely.

It's taken me a while, but I've finally picked it up. It's very very good, there goes all my free time for the next week.

Absolutely AMAZING game. 👍

 

[terminator363]

Absolutely AMAZING game. 👍

Agreed, but I only liked it on PC because I could set my wheel up to 900 degrees rotation.

For some reason I immediately thought of this.

Words just cannot convey how shockingly thin this thing is.

Boba Fett dressing gown, Bill Bailey box set and the Eddie Izzard Ultimate box set (basically both box sets were to replace old videos )

 

[W3H5]

Dressing gown - full of win. 👍

Scanpan wok. Kind of kicking myself that I waited so long to get one - it makes preparing dinner a breeze . (No idea what the grill thing is for though ).

 

[Shaun]

Scanpan, nice. 👍

Pretty sure the grill is for drying socks while cooking.

Preordered :

Thaught this thread would be flooded with ps4 preordered post, come on guys

Scanpan wok.

The grill is for perching little figures on so they can admire you culinary skills, not socks!

But isn't GT6 going to be a PS3 title? That's all I care about.

[Pupik]

It's no wonder that gaming companies do quite well; they have a good deal of money/credit before there's even a product to sell.

Here's a couple uses for the rack, I also use it after browning meats while vegs cook as to not overcooking meats.

Wok Rack: A wok rack is used for deep fat fry and draining the oil completely. It is perfect for draining off excess oil from the food. It is a semicircular or doughnut shaped wire rack hanging from both sides of the wok.

Steamer Rack: A steamer rack is very good for steaming. As steamer rack holds the food over the simmering water while it circulates the steam and allows the food to cook.
