Yeah they gave me a demo though of the 2000 and it seemed to take quite a lot longer to get to temperature. When I want tea, I want it sooner rather than later.Quote:

Spent a few hundred on oils for the GU yesterday at Repco (they have 30% off this weekend if you have an RACV card). But more importantly, I bought a roll of yellow hand towels from there. They're the best bloody hand towels I've ever used! They're actually absorbent, even for oil, which is more than I can say for 99% of the ones I've tried in the past. Great buy.
Going to go back today and buy a recovery kit, as I sold all of my gear before moving to NZ a few years ago, and haven't reacquired it all since moving back. Their recovery kits with snatch block, snatch strap, winch extension, tree trunk protector, equalisation strap and a couple of bow shackles seem like reasonable value.
Another reversing camera........
I bought my son a new Thumper air compressor. Everything he borrows, he brakes. Maybe he'll look after this if it is his.
A new pool filter pump. Starting to get sick of stuff busting around the house. In the last 6 months I've replaced.
Pool salt cell
Pool filter pump
Washing machine
Dish washer
TV
Vacuum
Stainless BBQ plates
About $10k worth of stuff on the Patrol....
These 5 core weather proof plugs have arrived, in conjunction with
with some 4mm 5 core trailer wire that arrived last week I can now wire
some lights on my roof rack,
I'll make a short 2mtr lead up ,this way it can be diconnected if I need to service any lights
or remove the roofrack
ROFLMAO good luck with that sick of losng my tools so I thought Id buy him someQuote:

Know what your saying. My son is now a qualified mechanic with his own gear, but my stuff still keeps going missing. His worst trait is not looking after gear that's not his. I call it the Errol Flynn syndrome .... "everything he touches, he f##@s!Quote:
