What's the last thing you bought or will buy?

Taxi fare to The Light in Town this morning.

And then some idiot at Veezu rang (twice) on the mobile to say they were outside the Flat when we were nearly there! I officially give up, if it wasn't for the fact I know not to use Uber at "Peak" times I'd stick to them instead of Veezu, then I wouldn't have to go through the annoyingly incompetent call centre drones, I'm just stuck because Veezu owns every other firm except A1, and they keep cancelling on me.

Like I'll probably end up having to cancel for Taekwondo tomorrow night, because Forge Valley Sports Centre'll still be shut, I'm sure Laura will moan about the short notice but cry me a flamin' river.

In better news, I checked both the Lottery tickets I bought yesterday this morning, and one of 'em's good for £2.80, that's a 30p profit on the price of the ticket.

Possibly a new camera, I have a good one, Fujifilm Finepix S, which I bought from CEX last year, but I've just tried it with 2 new sets of AA batteries and it won't turn on! I know it's postive to negative, negative to positive, I've tried both sets of batteries both ways.

Sony DSC-W290 on eBay, nice little camera, but it doesn't take normal sized SD cards, only Sony branded memory stick Duo. ALso a small green screen background for live filming with my other camera, seeing as I popped up to Harrisons on Tuesday and they confirmed that the base plate I bought on eBay last week does fit, and is compatible to my Tripod.

A new pair of cheap hard wearing but smart trousers for work.

Well seeing as I got banned for life from CEX last week (for something that wasn't totally my fault) I'm now looking for somewhere other than eBay to sell my surplus to requirements cameras etc.

eBay does have its uses, the biggest problem is when I sell stuff, send it off and the last 3 times I have done, it's gone walkies in the post or gone "missing" in the flippin' Evri Warehouse.

I sold a green screen last week, that I bought on there in the first place, but it was too big for what I can use it for so I listed it, and it sold almost instantly for more than I paid for it! It's been sent via Yodel this morning.

I just hope it doesn't end up going "walkies".

Plus this afternoon I've bought a green screen stand on eBay, which is to fit the smaller screen I bought last week, to be delivered between Friday and next Monday.

Possibly a trip to the Bank to pay off some online debts.

Debts are now paid.

Well the biggest one will be paid shortly.

A new pair of shoes because the soles of my current shoes have warn out at an angle and they're starting to put stress on my knees, not good. Also because I'm gonna be doing a hell of a lot of walking around next week because I'm back in Tokyo
