Never mind all that. Does that globe lift up to reveal a selection of drinks and glasses? I bloody hope it does.

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
There should be a few here old enough to remember Bloodrunners?
Picked up Andy Sparrows "Artobiography" yesterday, from the man himself, along with a T-shirt and a signed bit of original inkwork.

Loads on Amazon. The Zoffoli one doesn't look too shabby.
(Found a genuine antique globe while looking - no drinks capacity - £50k

Re: The Official Pleasing Purchase Thread
Well i'm hoping it's pleasing... it's bloody expensive

We do struggle though with keeping stuff cold at race meetings when we're there from Fri/Sun. Generally by Sunday we're winging it with cold stuff and hoping for the best
This seems to keep stuff chilly for days and days so should see us right.

Snap (ish)- I've just bought this to replace my very battered and knackered 12V coolbox.Potter wrote: Tue Jun 18, 2024 5:57 amWe had a little 12v fridge that plugged into the cigarette lighter in the van - well actually I ran it from a spare leisure battery that is wired in so it charged as normal but could be isolated so it didn’t run the starter battery flat.weeksy wrote: Mon Jun 17, 2024 1:09 pm Well i'm hoping it's pleasing... it's bloody expensive

We always managed fine on that to keep milk and stuff cold for the weekend racing.
This one is 240v as well as 12v, so can plug it in at the track/ hotels that don't have a fridge too

Motorcycle Insurance.
The Bullet is insured for another year, £69.91.
The pleasing thing is I did it via Quidco Compare, so I'll get £23 cashback!

Yup, The BMW and GSXR are on a multi bike, soon as I add a third bike the price jumps up another £100.
