    I had a surprise email today, telling me I was due an Amazon import duties refund. Its for £4.22. I didn't know they did that. I bought a nailgun from the US for £234, compared to the UK price of £470!!!
    Aw, a nail gun :T. I love using my big stapler :D. How much fun would a nail gun be :j.

    Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow

    Edit: Oh yes, nice little refund :)

    Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow Pow

    Right, I had a couple of hours spare this afternoon. So my partner has bought one of those pull along trolley's for the boys when we go camping or to festivals (they have mini ear-defenders). To make the trolley a little more interesting for them, I thought I'd cobble together a little addition to it. Its going to be a VW Splitty single cab truck. Its nowhere near finished but had a bit of fun making it up.

    They are 5 and 2, the boys will be able to enjoy using this for a good while yet.
