What Have You Bought Today?

I laid upon it earlier and its an improvement on the limp topper we used to use. I won't know until camperjam whether the Mrs likes it --the true test.

It seems much like it is advertised. Rolls up snug and the elastic corner straps keep it that way. It's a perfect fit for a 112. It smelt very chemically as they do when you open them first time. I left it out in the van for 24hr to offgas.
Hi @Badjamin
What did you think to the mattress topper now you’ve used it anger ?
Thanks
Bob
 
The matress topper is good. I had my old one topper on it as well though but it doesn't add much if anything. The Mrs slept very well outside of my snoring so I'd say it's worth a punt in my opnion. I can't vouch for it's longevity of comfort as of yet. I know others recommend duvalet but if you can't afford the crazy price tag then this is the one I'd go for. If it starts to compress and go limp in a few years I'd buy another and double it up.
 
Yeah, dreadful service for the end user. Still smarting over the 300 quid awning they lost/stole a few years ago....
 
We had 3 'missed' deliveries from them where they said they were unable to make delivery as nobody in and no safe place to leave ....we have cameras on the driveway up to our house that showed each time there was no delivery attempt ever made .
 
😳 depends a lot on the driver perhaps... had a guy deliver for a few years around ours & he was great.. have a chat (mainly a weekend) if we seen him & knew where to leave it if we weren't in... different guy past couple of months... doesn't press the 'RING' to wait for an answer or someone to speak, as we haven't had a letterbox since January - new door, just knocks the door, leaves the package on the floor if it doesn't fit the mailbox (as it often doesn't being a package).
Good thing with the RING camera, picks up any movement in good certain radius of the front of the house & people walking on the pavement at the end of the drive.
 
I picked up a cheap (£23) portable espresso machine from Aldi on the weekly shop this morning
Portable Coffee Maker.webp

I've always been intrigued by the gadget potential, even though I'm pretty sure the Travel Aeropress is a better fit for my use/taste - I tend to prefer longer coffees than shots.

The usual £80ish price put me off, but for that price worth a try.

Early testing results are it definitely works, though it doesn't cope well with what I would regard as a normal espresso grind (bit too much side leakage) but worked much better on my normal Aeropress/MochaPot grind.

I'll continue to play.
