Vans were very cheap, the Nikes...not so much. At least that's my footwear sorted, hopefully until the end of year.

Please don't judge the Nikes' colors though. The black ones were 20€ more expensive and I wasn't gonna spend more on something that I'm gonna abuse mostly by running.

A replica Lament Configuration Puzzle Box from Hellraiser. I'm a big fan of the book (shown behind) ... Well obviously it's a replica, I don't fancy summoning sado masochists from hell into my living for the sake of a bookshelf ornament!
It's quite hefty in weight actually and you can reconfigure it as well. Really well made for the price.

I've ordered a few little trinkets and oddities as bookshelf ornaments, I'll post some pictures when I have them all delivered and set out.

Oh don’t you now?

I wish I did splash out... One run and a few short walks, they are dirty already. Don't believe I can return them now and pay more for the other ones. Crap.

Ok, I was at Decathlon. I can safely say it was a good thing the bill was not over 80 EUR. I'm afraid I'm just not done yet...

So for now it was some light shorts, a cheap T-shirt, a seamless running T-shirt, a foldable mat for hiking, and a deodorizer for shoes (which I'll use on my backpack as it fucking reeks).

Got a bit of a shopping bug recently. Bought 2 T-shirts, 2 shorts, swim shorts... Gonna be following up with a few more of those soon.

Decided to ditch my Samsung S23+ and get an S24 (regular, smaller version). Bought it today brand new for 650€, and will sell the old one for 500 once I complete the setup.

So far I'm still getting used to a smaller frame, but only when I'm typing - I absolutely wanted a smaller screen. I also noticed it runs slightly hotter, and battery life might suffer. There are some disadvantages probably, but it looks spectacular, plus I got a brand new phone for 150€.

My car's front tires are basically dead. Even with rotations, they only lasted 22.5k miles :/

So I just bought a full set of 19 inch Hankook Ion Evo all-season tires, which are the trendiest electric vehicle tires at the moment. They were expensive, but they should last a long time. They'll get to the shop next week, so I'll just drive there after work and get the new tires mounted!

Head Speed MP tennis racket. It's used, but is supposed to be in a good condition. Can't wait for it to arrive - have 90 minutes of tennis today and another 120 on Sunday. Let's hope I get to use it at least on Sunday.

These arrived at the pickup point. I shall play good tennis in these. They were very cheap, so hoping they just fit well and all will be good.

Just received my (signed) vinyl of Solarstone's Pure album. What a treat! Forgot how awesome this album is. Many gems on this record. Rich singing is always a bit cheesy but i like it #memories #nostalgia

Very nice!

Just purchased a freshly released 2TB Extreme Pro SanDisk branded micro SD card to store of all my music (and still have lots of free space) in lossless. Not cheap at all (but still much cheaper than the Kioxia released 6 months ago on the Japanese Amazon) but state of the art technology.

Just ordered these. Only size left in the entire country for this color, so hopefully the fit is good. Got Gore-Tex lining so hopefully performs well in the (present and coming) rainy weather. And it's just good-looking as well, could just about wear it with most things excluding a full suit.
