when the money from selling my house comes through I intend to spend a little of it on myself. I've compliled a list in order of necessity of the things I should buy:

a new pair of platform new rocks - as the sole (edit - possible the soul too but that was a little deep) is attempting to detatch from mine at the mo - 4+ years of being pretty constantly worn though so not a bad innings
a new phone - possibly another nokia 6300 as I loved it so much and it's defininetly not coming back from the dead this time :( ooo they do them in other colours now too...
a long line black satin underbust corset - as both of my plain black long corsets are too big and falling apart.
a roland juno G. I played with one at mera luna (and kept trying to sneak of to play it when no one was looking) both of my other synthesisers are from before 1988 - it would be nice to get with the times a little even if it's with a budget machine. and it matches my juno 106 nicely :D

that's about a grand. it's not much of a replacement for my home but hey, retail therapy...

Sorry to be the sound of reason, but don't go too mad or you'll regret it later. Some fun stuff however is probably a good idea, but the thought of it replacing your house is probably a bad one as you could almost justify anything off the back of it.

BTW - may be worth scouring ebay for the phone as you can pick up some good second hand bargain ones there. One of my av forums also has good bargains to be had if you need a hand !

they're only £115 new. apart from the synth all of the things on the list are replacing worn out stuff I've had before. it's only really the synth that's a 'treat' and its "only" £600ish

Live only once eh!

I'd check ebay just in case as you may pick up a good second hand one... Also some of the synth sites like www.vintagesynth.com have classifieds :)

I remember buying my Triton for well over a grand back in 2001... sold for 500 in the end :/

The MS2000 though picked up for £300 *grins*

true but I tend to like to buy new technical stuff new from a reputable vendor incase there's a problem with it.

hey maybe you should buy mr tink's jupiter 6 :)

I would love too but at a grand that would kill me financially for a bit!!!

What price do you put though on reputable vendor though ;) I would say first and foremost check out Rolands forum to see what issues arise then make a judgement based upon the weight and severity of those issues...

I should have done this when buying that Renault Scenic!!!

Hey. You don't need to justify to me...I was just saying be careful - I know what its like as i get a big bonus each year (8-15k, but is taxed) and the temptation is huge...But its also smart to invest and save and stuff....Have in the past used retail therapy on shares - Buying *AND* investing...Wooo !

Over the toilet! Excellent idea... plus it doubles up as mischevious entertainment ;)
