When did you last buy yourself something nice?
 
I treated myself to a new bag for work.

It's bigger than my other one so I just put my old one in its dust bag.

I can fit lots more on this one :hee:

What was the last thing you treated yourself to which was pricey?

The last thing I bought for myself was a blue cardi it wasn't expensive though, can't remember the last time I bought something expensive for myself :think: Ohhh hang on, I did buy an expensive top from monsoon alright for a night out a few months ago, it's was €100 which is a lot more than i would normally spend on a top

Yeah that's a lot for a top. I go in tkmax as they have lots of bargains. I don't know if you have that in Ireland. A lot of its designer stuff but you don't pay those sort of prices.

Very true, but wondering where people have splurged and treated themselves to something they probably wouldn't normally spend that sort of money on

Yeah we have tkmax, I hate how it's laid out though, I don't really like shopping so I find the way they have everything just bunched together and you have to trawl through it off putting

Yeah it's a lot of effort and sometimes you don't know where to start.

I mainly do online shopping, the only two high street shops I frequent a lot are tkmax and Poundland :laugh:

A Lucy Pittaway jubilee print, mounted and framed for just under £500.
Had my eye on it for a week or so, will look lovely in my new kitchen.

I bought one of these last week

https://pingmediastage.azureedge.net...ty_708x708.jpg

On the tee or off the ground, the G425 crossovers' thinner, maraging steel face and internal geometry deliver the ball speeds to hit high-flying shots that land softly and closer to the hole. Tungsten toe and hosel weights expand perimeter weighting for greater forgiveness and accuracy. Available in 2, 3, 4.

I got the 4, ideal for bone dry links fairways:hee:

bitontheslide 26-05-2022 02:26 PM

i got one of these the other day :flutter:

I bought myself a cable to hook up my work laptop to the big monitor and then realised it’s the wrong cable and that I already HAVE the right kind of cable in a drawer somewhere. Two of them!

:fist:

Living it up.

Actually going back to what parmy said about nice things not having to be expensive, one of my favourite things anyone ever bought be was a giant round Ice Cube mould I got from Gav :laugh:

I just googled. I like some of her prints.

My mum and dad like Mackenzie Thorpe and Doug Hyde. We have so many limited editions around the house we could be a museum

Looks top notch. My dad and brother play golf but not for me. Too much walking and my aim is terrible

Ahh, Mackenzie Thorpe, another local lad, I had the pleasure of meeting him about 12 years ago. We had a great chat.
My top 3 artists, Sam Toft, Lucy Pittaway and Mackenzie Thorpe.
We have more pictures than walls now, so I have a lot of sorting to do.
