What is that machine in front of your keyboard, which appears to have an orange return key?

I thought I spotted an Intellimouse too, but it doesn't have the side buttons. Slightly reassuring to see that I'm not the only one still using optical drives, albeit maybe one or twice a year.

Earlier intellimouse

The orange key machine is a Tatung Einstein TC-01

Sakura Mochi flavour. Never tried this one, thought I'd give it a go. Was only £4 for a pack of 12. Bargain!

New garden furniture, wood for the pergola (unfinished so far). Ignore the deck, it's getting replaced soon, got a 133" projector screen to hang up, some festoon lighting and going to look for some fabric to hang across the batons (Cafe Mambo Ibiza style). My own little slice of paradise is becoming reality

Also bought a new 65" Panasonic X700 TV in the sales ($1688NZ), and picked up a used KEF KHT 2001.3 5.1 system with Kube 2 for $200 on market place.

I sure do miss those kinds of views. Looks awesome

My latest purchase, well the banks really. I just pay them back every month for the next 20+ years.

There’s poo on the drive, hope you got a discount for that.

congrats!

Worst was after the first night waking up to a cat or fox poo right outside the front door.

Letterbox height looks fairly safe too

Haven't seen one of those in about 18 years. We had one in a place I used to work. I wrote a BASIC program for it so they could print labels off it.

You're supposed to sleep in the house not outside the front door

That was an OcUK special delivery.

Multipacks are tiny, they are about £1.50 to £2 in Don Quijote.

Can I post this image I never posted from last trip?

I thought that was why the plant pot was there so you could stand on it....

Maybe that wasn't a fox or cat poo and it was one of the OcUK lot trying to poo through my letter box whilst standing on the pot
