Awesome? Toss up between my speed triple r, and my browning b725. Both stunning at what they do, and the pleasure of ownership is almost immeasurable.

Crazy to think now that such small towns were able to regularly attract such prestigious acts. Great piece of history

I bet the Hendrix version of the poster would set you back a fair bit.

A DeWalt impact driver. For a DIYer it’s just gorgeous.

I recently bought 3kg of Haribo jelly snakes (the long ones you'd normally get in a newsagents). Ate them quicker than I care to admit to.

Most shameful by modern standards: an American Civil War 1861 model of the Colt Navy Revolver. As a student of the period I couldn’t resist… in the days when sticking such a thing in a suitcase and bringing it back to England took all the cunning of wrapping it in clothes in your suitcase. A friend of mine returned home with an American Eagle complete with flagpole, which made the customs officials day and convinced them we were a couple of harmless nutters. The weapon was soon decommissioned upon arrival in Blighty, just in case.

It would indeed as would The Beatles, Stones and so on. I've never seen any of those for sale. As for my Billy Fury/Ellington/Yardbirds poster, only two have ever appeared in auction and, apparently, Ringo Starr owned one of them.

Don't know about shameful / awesome but this thing is brilliant. Quick fill in the locker room, golf shoes cleaned before putting them in the boot of the car, cheap and cheerful but does the job perfectly. Every home should have one!!
