Never had an Echo or a smart speaker so not really sure if I'll use it much but I had a voucher. doubles up as a bluetooth speaker if nothing else so atleast there's that and the voice-command system is rather nice. Toyed with it a lot when I had a regular Echo but it became less of a tool and more of a speaker over time. I like that it does remember my alarms and gives me a heads up as I generally don't keep my phone near me at all times.
Inverted Posted August 1, 2019 Posted August 1, 2019 Bought new glasses today. Went from black and rectangular, to see-through and round. At £97 they're not cheap but not hugely dear. Plus it's Ace and Tate, who have great service and who I've heard only good things about. Some of my pals order theirs online and get glasses ridiculously cheap, but I like having a store I can go back to for adjustments etc, and I'd rather buy something I know is quality if they're going to be on my face from morning to night.

Did you check out iolla? They do a similar style to that. No idea of price though.

Iolla's stuff looked really good, and their base rate is a bit cheaper. The thing is, because my eyes are so different in their prescriptions, one needs to be thinned differently to equalise it with the other. Most places charge like £40 even £50 for this, but Ace and Tate do it free. Iolla might do it free, idk. But once I heard that, I leapt onboard with A&T. Might have saved a bit, but with glasses I take the attitude that if you get a pair you're happy with, then it's only a once every 2 or 3 year expense.
Rab Posted November 12, 2019 Posted November 12, 2019 Got this at a gig last night, instantly became my favourite vinyl out of my collection. Looks so fucking good.
Inverted Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Ordered myself a new turntable and some speakers during the sales last week. I currently have a little record player, but it's more like a gimmick than a proper listening experience, and I've been gifted some nice records that I'd like to be able to play properly.

I was gifted a pretty sick record player and floor standing speakers so I've been beginning to buy more records. It's a weirdly satisfying listening experience.

What kind of turntable is it? I've always contemplated getting one but can never get around to actually buying one.

I thought i'd get a Garmin originally but this turned out to be a pretty decent purchase as I am going snorkeling and diving in a few weeks and wanted something with a large dial. This looks really good.

Subscriber Viva la FCB+ Posted July 8, 2021 Subscriber Posted July 8, 2021 So randomly came across this girl on reddit from Slovenia that does oil on canvas paintings of cars and she's really talented. Prices where quite reasonable especially including shipping and to half way around the world for that matter so I took the plunge and ordered one off her about 2 months ago. Just got it last week im super psyched with how it turned out.

Moderator Tommy Posted October 6, 2021 Moderator Posted October 6, 2021 This jacket. The negative thing about losing weight is that you have to spend more money on new clothes.
