What have you bought today?

A new sanding pad head for my multitool. Apparently they wear out - I was finding that the Velcro sanding pads weren't gripping and were coming loose. I have an upcycling project coming up on our kitchen dresser and will need to do a fair bit of sanding.

Using the mobility scooter, at this time of year, can be quite chilly, especially on the hands, even with gloves on. I was looking at what they wear on motorbikes, in the cold weather, and it seems to be some sort of mitts, which fit, actually on the handlebar - covering the hand, plus bar, and switches, as one, sliding onto the bar. I ordered some, they have just arrived, and they are absolutely massive. They slide on the bar, then lash onto the mirror stem, with thick insulation. Apart from the embarasing size, they look as if they will do the job.

Back in the day, on the bike, I just used to wear a pair of gauntlets, usually with a pair of silk inner gloves.
