I've recreated my thread here I created back over at TRC back in 2012
The first post started as....
What have you purchased recently that got you all pleased and excited? Excited or pleased at the prospect of buying, exicted or pleased at the prospect of using.
It is/was a long thread with lots of interesting and exciting things. Long may it continue.

After seeing two riders with these today. I was thinking how they grab your attention, but couldn't work out why when we're in a world of HiViz these days?

Just set up another one of these lamps I bought from Ikea. Have one already but wanted another one for the work bench. Very good lamp with a long reach.
