My iPod was starting to fall apart and as I need music on my train travels, picked up one of these second hand:



and a pair of these (though had to order twice as stupid thieving bastard courier stole the first two)



Playing my music of all bit rates, without having to convert to 16/44 is very nice.

Do you have to use high-end headphones to really enjoy this?
Not necessarily. Sennheiser Momentums are my traveling cans (my ears appreciate their treble roll off).

It was just an ad for the True Detective Blu Ray, didn't show more than one second of that scene. :(
In that episode, oh you do see more.

Anyhow, Bought these to replace the original (temporary) screen protector on my Nexus 4.



Finally peeled it off and was amazed how much more detailed and clear the screen was.

Sometimes I get this stuff too. pu-erh tea. They form it into all kinds of shapes and stuff. Probably for similar reasons/transportation.

(re)Discovered a foil bag of Misty Peak pu'er in my cupboard and had a couple of pots of that this evening. Good stuff.

Anyway, bought a Logitech M220 Wireless Silent Ambidextrous mouse for my other half.

It has it's own charm but I tend to prefer buildings from before WWII where I live (before the widespread use of concrete post war). They tend to age better

Nothing in the taste or texture that made me think, there's insects in this. Tasted like a cranberry, orange and nut health bar.

I've just bought one of those as well , used to have the model 3000, but it wore out trying to scythe through the straw that now seems to sprout from my conk.

Bought a Samsung Gear S2 as Samsung UK were having a clear out with the S2 & S2 Classic briefly for £99.
My Moto 360 v1 battery basically dies when you look at the time now (have to have airplane mode running all the time to block all notifications), so looking forward to having a smart watch again.
