A formal white, shirt to go with the suit. Got it home to find neck/body fit was fine but sleeve length may have, possibly, fit a T-Rex. It'll have to go back and I'll have to see if they do a sleeve length more compatible with a simian gentleman.

CharlieG use TM Lewin Charlie

Or Charles tyrwytt.
Do all lengths of sleeves

Been meaning to read it for years.

Moved from the To Buy list to the To Read list

Jon Let us know if that’s any good. I like the the way MPW portrays him self on screen. Still can’t justify 20 quid for soup in the Box Tree in the early 80s though.

He opened up in the Box Office outside the merrion centre , it was good very good , shame it closed

Jon

Djpekingman Will do but it might be a while. The To Read pile isn’t small. I saw an interview with him and was really impressed by the way he acknowledged, repeatedly, the element of luck in his success. Very few people who’ve made it, in whatever field you can think of, seem to think that way.

I had a full year of 'almost' spending nothing on things myself.

Clothes, instruments, guitar stuff mainly. Not ponce though...

Total spend is under a few hundred quid for 2024.

Shifted loads on eBay and Reverb - going to do the same again this year. I don't know why it feels so good doing. Far less clutter in the house and the contained value of things I have spent money over the years is a disgrace.

I've got a pile of guitar pedals that I am going to shift. Some are in high demand so its tough to the let them go but they are no good to me in a drawer.

Got my eye on a Japanese Fender Jazzmaster.

Anchor

Loose_Lips I'm on this tip. I'm really keen on 2025 being a hefty saving year. It's operation retirement. Or as close as I can.

The record collection will get a trim and maybe have a look at a few other piles of things just sitting there.

I don't need anything. I have enough clothes/trainers but if I want something then something will have to go.

I'll buy ponce though.

However first £20 went on a Boompods Apple Air Tag thing for my wallet that's as thin as a credit card.

You slide it in with everything else.

I had an air tag on the outside in a little pouch thing but it kept falling out.

Those air tags have saved my life throughout 2024. Weekly.

Got the wallet, keys, car and work bagpack all hooked up. Amazing things, they use all iPhones and Apple Network to broadcast where they are.

Loose_Lips What the flip are you on about. Are you talking English?

A dozen free-range eggs. (Large)

Harvest

Young_Marxist_at_Tescos Whenever purchasing eggs and also reading what you've typed there, I always give it 'Ah-free range-ah' in a Mark E Smith style. For info.
