They've been around for many decades, I used to have a pair as far back as the 70's. Sold suggesting they prevent night dazzle, and/or useful in fog.
What have you bought today?

Having everyone round ours for Christmas so went and bought our frozen Turkey today and a ham roasting joint. Reading the instructions on the Turkey, it says not to defrost at room temperature but to defrost in the refrigerator for 106 hours! I worked it out that I need to take it out of the freezer and put it in the fridge on Saturday night if I’m going to cook it on Christmas Day.
I thought you normally soaked it in a brine overnight, or am I getting you mixed up with Mick, Gavin's dad?
Yeah, Mick Shipman and Pete Sutcliffe soaked theirs in brine. This one had already been soaked.
It’ll take up a fair bit of space in our freezer for 4 days so I think I’ll run it round my mums house and put it in her fridge until Christmas Eve.
Shiny new engine bits for my Fiat Coupe. ££££ 
Pis-ton hell! I bet that box was heavy!
Not often i see a cylinder head all shiny and sparkly- usually saw 'em when they tracked by after dropping on the shakeout; covered in black sand and steaming like a devil's doings. A pig of a job to drag off for a q/c check, especially first thing of a morning.
Nice! I had to have the pistons pocketed in my Lotus twin cam when I fitted a BVH with wild cams.
2 bags of spuds, 2 bags of carrots, 2 bags of parsnips, 2 bags of sprouts and 1 red cabbage at Sainsbury’s. Total price £1.35. I only have them as backups in case the couple of hundred of quids worth and hours of hard labour for the veg that I’ve grown myself turns out shyte when I go over the allotment to harvest them on Christmas Eve.

I thought I'd dodged a bullet buying a drone like Mottie's (under 250g), but they've changed the regs from Jan so I've had to get an operators ID and a flyers ID, had to do an online training course and shell out £11.79
But hey, I'm a qualified pilot.

I don’t like to say I told you so but……
They wont apply to me.
Even if under 250g, if it has a camera you needed an operators ID anyway. £11.79 for a year. The flyer ID lasts 5 years and is free.
If you want to fly it in the EU, you need an EU licence. Get it in any EU country (technically the first EU country you intend to fly in) and it’s valid in all of them. Some charge, some are free. France is free and I’m sure I got my one from here: https://alphatango.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/login.jsp
Wrong one! Thought I’d send it back. Clicked on 'returns', told them it didn’t fit and they said that it was eligible for a "returnless refund". In other words, don’t bother sending it back, have a refund and just dispose of it. Fairy nuff.A 54mm dosing funnel.
