Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
I take an odd delight in seeing if I can find mince pies in the shop throughout the year. I never actually buy them, I'm just amused by the fact they're on sale on June...which they often are IME.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
I bought a UV torch to look for scorpions in the garden. I've found a couple but they scuttle under a stone when the torch gets too close, no idea how to take a picture of one.
Have a pic of a squirrel from my trail cam instead.

Are any squirrels sane?

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
No idea and not yet! I'll grab a piccie later, but they are surprisingly bright for their size. Broad spread of white light more than a beam, so more a worklight than a torch. I bought 4 and gave three away but will buy some more and have them in my car and camper and one under the bike seat.Ditchfinder wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 4:01 pmWhat's the runtime like and have you got pics of them working?Taipan wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 3:45 pm These little magnetic, led lights.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
I've bought three tickets for the RLWC match Papua New Guinea vs Wales.
I'm taking my mum so she can shout rude things at the Welsh team, we've even bought her a PNG flag to wave. She's no affiliation to PNG, just she hates the Welsh.
