In my defence, the Flanci kit is for everyone else but me. I only hit-up Armadillo because I was feeling left out of my own spree! 😂

Reminds me of a guy I know who was in the middle of a divorce when his (then) wife emptied their bank account for a boob job. In revenge he went out and bought a Breitling watch. He forever referred to the exotic timepiece as his "tits" 
Am I going to hell for this one? I expect so.

Shame on you for thinking that of me Ros, I'm appalled. I would never buy a fecking Breitling.
As it happens, there IS an element of truth in that slanderous allegation - my ex-wife would never let me buy a Rolex Submariner or Omega Seamaster (the 007 one) and they were sort of de rigueur in the world I lived in at the time, particularly as they were so luminous they set the geiger counters off As soon as the ink was dry on the decree nisi I marched into a Portsmouth jewellers with a stack of tenners and bought one. Petty I know ....

I wondered how you would respond -
- baby brother picked up a Submariner for literally a couple of pounds from a car boot sale, but he wears dad's 1950s vintage simple Omega.

Submariners command serious money. I knew someone who had the MOD-issue version with the tritium batons, I think he sold it and bought a Porsche. Old Omegas are v. classy.

there may have been the purchase of a new motorbike involved in the rest of the story...

And to think my eyes nearly fell out of my head when the Garmin Marq range came out
Now that I think of it, eL Bee! is muttering about replacing his Edge 820 with something top of the range. For mountain biking, in the mud
