If I can use a nail gun and not injure myself, you'll be fine (lol) I used to manufacture shipping crates and pallets as my first school leaving job.

An electric underfloor heating kit for the shed/office.

Unfortunately turned out to be the wrong kit. Emailed the company with photos showing the problem, response within 15 minutes and they are sending a courier on Monday to collect and replace it. Can't knock good service like that.

More bike stuff.

A set of Hepco & Becker crash bars and a BMW battery charger, since the old Optimate 3 died and the can-bus version they do was the same price as the BMW one which has more than twice the charge current and a display that tells me a bit more than some blinking lights it was an easy choice, I like the information.

It's awesome, really compact and well packaged. I'll measure it tomorrow and let you know. Off the top of my head it's about 7" long, 2.5-3" wide and less than an inch deep. I will say though, the screwdriver handle is small, you'd definitely want to use the wrench to apply torque.

Sweet and sour

The sweet is an MRA Vario screen for the bike, the Givi was causing some buffeting and the adjustable spoiler on the MRA should fix that.

The Sour, another fine from London village, Haringey this time :@

The Police advice, get a private plate... Nah I'd rather you catch the criminal and crush the cloned car, thanks.
