Mrs C_S has played an absolute blinder and got me a couple of genuine Neanderthal artifacts - an arrowhead in good but unused condition and a scraper which had been used.
Bought from a very reputable source so not a modern knock off - No, she didnât buy them from LITSL or SOG, though they did offerâŚ
I like my gadgets low tech tbf
Oh, and she got me and Teenage Mutant a Zimbabwean Fifty Trillion Dollar note each, from the bad old days in 2008 when inflation out there went absolutely fucking mental.
The note wouldnât have even bought a loaf of bread.
I have to say I was disappointed with the offer for the crushed Richard III spinal disc. It was authenticated as a congenital spinal disorder not later car park damage as you wife suggested. 
A couple of Anker chrimbo gifts:
Got a pair of these Soundbud curves:
They are very comfy and havenât cut out once yet. This is unfortunate as Iâve heard every second of Saints getting dicked at Wembley.
Got one of these Soundcore nano speakers for Kid Goat:
Itâs tiny. It is fucking loud! She loves it. Cost me ÂŁ6 in the sale. Unbelievable.
Not strictly a gadget but Mrs C_S has got me hooked on an app thatâs apparently taking Mumsnet by storm
Flightradar 24
Itâs a realtime flight tracker. Totally useless, but if you want to check the progress of the 16:00 flight from Heathrow to Seoul, balloons in the Caribbean (I kid you not), wonder about why there are no flight in Yemen or N Korea for that matter, or even why all helicopter flights from Aberdeen all seem to finish in the North Sea then itâs the app to download
I didnât realise there are so many planes in the air at the same time
I will probably be getting the paid-for option soonâŚvery sad I know.
I got some bluetooth soundbuds before my trip away. Theyâve made my commutes and travelling around the borough so much better and I am not getting tangled up anymore.
Also picked up that little speaker and agree. Itâs fab.
Seems as the missus and I both have QI capable phones I got this little powerbank thing, I must admit it rocks. Although I wasnât expecting a power button on the side and was wondering why QI charging wasnât working and was about to return it.
There was a severe lack of instructions to be fair.
Got some of the blue ones yesterday, they were only ÂŁ1 more expensive.
I love them
Want one
Get behind me in the queue
This interview with the company behind it says that it could be produced for âthe price of an SUVâ.
First gen, so Iâll give it a swerve until version 3, but itâs a stunning concept.
You want to sit in a plastic drone??? Are you all MADâŚOK silly question. 
Of course you do.
âŚand can you drop off a few Amazon packages while youâre at it.
Where am I supposed to store the hog-tied?
Bound to be van-sized version soon. Much less chance of being pulled over 
Jeez a âWhite Vanâ droneâŚnow thereâs a frightening thought. 
Can you imagine THOUSANDS of those being flown unfettered by the kind of idiots who now drive 20 year old Subaru Imprezas?
If you want your kids to work in a growing industry, get them to train as Air Crash InvestigatorsâŚthey are going to need a lot of them.
Just think we could escape from the Betty Ford Clinics that are oil rigs and FPSOâs with out requiring a helicopter
Down side how many more prison breaks willl occur ?
@Mangobean these are the ear plugs I recommend. Also cuts out a load of the chatter around you. I even use them on noisy tube journeys.
