Day 19.  Browsing the internet whilst watching the football on my iPad. A nice, relaxing evening.

Day 18.
Lego that has been reduced. Due to missing pieces. Kinda defeats the point, no?

Day 17.
This is a close-up of a bottle of water that Sarah left on my desk and it’s gathered some condensation. I quite like the effect, it could make a good wallpaper if the photo was taken a bit better.

Day 16.
My running shoes. I paid around £80 for these a couple of years ago and the difference they made to my running was incredible. I had my gait measured at a proper running shop and they advised me that I tended to run with my weight on the outside of my feet so I needed a particular style of running shoe.
So after looking around, I settled on these and the comfort was SO much better than my old pair that I’d just picked up from JJB Sports for £15 one day.
The weather is starting to get a bit better and it’s getting darker a bit later so I’m hoping to start running again soon.

Day 15.
Today we went to collect a washing machine that my Nan has very kindly given us. We’re hoping to move house shortly and this was a very nice gift which we’re really happy with.

Day 14.
Sweet. A Cadbury’s Wispa. Possibly the best chocolate bar, closely followed by Twirl’s.

Day 13.
Something I bought. This is a copy of “Total War: Shogun 2” that I bought a couple of months ago. I loved the first game and this dropped down to a very good price so I grabbed it.
I’ve tried to play it but the tutorial just seems to drag on a bit and it seems to go over stuff I already know but then randomly add things I’d forgotten about or new features so I need to sit through the tutorial fully at some point. I’ll give it a go when I know I’ll have a good few hours to spare.

Day 12.  My motherboard box has some funky bits on the side of the case. It reflects the light and gives a pretty good effect. A bit unnecessary for a box but there you go.

Day 11.  I bought this for Sarah not long after we started going out and I was on holiday in Gran Canaria. I thought it was pretty funky and I still do. Sarah never liked it much and still doesn’t.
