oldbloke's mutterings

They'd sold out of bike pumps. Got some lights though. Thought at first they were dud, but the diagram on the box was wrong regarding battery alignment. And it was a label covering a diagram for a totally different battery type. The battery carrier had the right layout moulded into it. I guess C cells are more common than Ds in Germany, or something.
The car boot tidybag I got the week before last is top, I was wondering how I'd fix it in place, and when I put it down where I wanted it to go it velcro'd itself in place automagically.
There's some more toys Jack might like coming up soon. That giant crane was a fantastic buy.
They have a couple of decent beers, and a lager that's OK when I'm feeling strange (eg Eurovision evening). I'm almost tempted to try their bourbon.
