Wishlist

In this modern age of de-cluttering,
and trying to buy people something they really want,
I produced a wishlist, which I try to keep updated
- and should cover anything from pence to a house!
I'm a bit of an experience
girl...
Return to this page for inspiration
for me, although if you know me, and are therefore
the most likely looking to buy something, all I
ask if that you join me in having fun! I'm still
travelling
at the moment though...
|
 |
iPod
Classic
With the following (free) engraving on the back:
Bex Lewis
bex@bex-lewis.co.uk
|
 |
Small/Micro
radio/CD/MP3 player
No need for cassettes any more! Needs sleep
timer or auto-switch-off, and preferably a remote.
Probably good to have with DAB radio these days...
|
 |
Airbed
Replacement airbed,
as blown away in the tornado. (I still have the
pump, but want this comfy bed which doesn't deflate
and can be pumped up using the electric pump) |
|
|
Cabin Case
Nice, neat, lightweight, wheeled, overhead
cabin sized suitcase (max 50cm x 35cm x 23cm).
Not necessarily this
one from Debenhams, but I like the fact
that it's not black, and that it weighs 2.6kg
(and is only £40). Most cabin bags weigh
over 3kg - want to save that space for luggage!
This
one from John Lewis is nice, but £85,
although I'd pay it if it lasts! A cheap
option from Argos, but is it too small?
|
 |
Printer Toners
I have the Samsung CLP-300 Laser Colour
Printer. Good value up front, but the toner
and other associated replacement elements can
add up!
|
 |
Psychologies
Magazine
I am subscribed to Psychologies
magazine from July 2008. 27th July/27th January
each year I'll be forking out £15.36 via
direct debit. |
 |
Writing Magazine
Subscription to Writing
Magazine and Writers News. Already have a
direct debit set up (suspended from whilst I wastravelling),
but £10.95 for the quarterly rate would
come in handy! |
 |
Laptop
My laptop gets such heavy work, it's now labouring
a lot every time I use it - it was bought in late
2003 - I still think of it as my "new"
laptop - even adding an external hard-drive I
don't think is enough! Once I got over the initial
problem with Dell (and their terrible customer
service), I've been very happy with the laptop,
so probably would get another one with them, so
that's the plan once am back in employment...
Broadband connection too - wireless, preferably! |
|
BOOKS
Amazon
Wishlist (you don't have to buy from
Amazon, although if you do, it disappears from
the list!).
 |
Damaris -
Bible
Study Guides (I have the guide to The
Matrix Trilogy) |
| |
Books
by Tom Wright (Already have 'Matthew'
(both parts); and 'Paul for Everyone: The
Prison Letters') |
| |
Georgette
Heyer Pastel |

Georgette
Heyer Barren
Corn |
|
I love all the 'extras' on DVD, and if
there's a 2-disk version of anything available
(Region 2), I am more likely to want that
than the one-disk version, as I want to
see all the 'behind the scenes' and 'making
of', etc... Ex-rental is fine!
I already have the following
DVDs.
|
|
| SPORT |
 |
SWIMMING: Waterproof
plugs for ears, like these. |
|
|
THE GYM: I've
only ever found one type of headphones I can wear
for extended periods: MDR-W08L
Vite Headphones, and need another pair (or
two!) |
 |
THE
GYM: A 32 oz. Power
Bottle |
 |
STRENGTH EXERCISES:
Thick fitness
mat |
CAMPING
I have tent, mallet, sleeping bag and mat.
|
BOARD GAMES
I'd like to build up a few board
games, including: |
ALWAYS
AN OPTION
 |
JEWELLERY
I'm allergic to nickel, wear a lot
of silver, and like plain-ish contemporary,
celtic, and strong graphic designs, nothing
too frilly or flowery. I've had a lot
from Past
Times - especially the Art Deco stuff,
Palenque
do some lovely stuff too - had a good
look in Chester when shopping with Erika.
The really strong enammeled pieces I wear
that people comment on were from Salford
Quays outlets, and appear to be by 'Ikita'
(Paris) - although I don't like all their
stuff!
Got some lovely ones like the pictured
ones one Christmas - thanks Kate!

 |
SOCKS
Well, a girl always needs socks. I like
black, bold colours, and appropriate patterns |
|
FOOD
I'm
eating a lot more healthily these days and need
to re-jig this list... I'd prefer it if you didn't
buy me chocolates! |
 |
Nice
wine (prefer red), good quality champagne (with
strawberry, etc. mixers) Baileys,
most types of alcohol except beer/lager. |
 |
Pistachio
Nuts in shells (unsalted is healthier but love
roasted/salted too) - they take longer to eat!
|
 |
Olives stuffed
with Pimento; in garlic/basil. |
| |
Vouchers
for Tesco or Sainsburys are always great, and
Marks & Spencers/John Lewis is a real treat! |
 |
'Useful' cow
stuff (I've kind of been over-run with stuffed
toys/ornaments, etc.).
- I love Cows,
Canada, and already have the Chair
Lift T-shirt (Size: M), the Anne
of Green Gables one would be fun. (Currency
converter - $24 is about £10).
- When the Magic Roundabout
came out in 2005, more stuff appeared. My
original collection was 'Ermintrude'.
Some original stuff off ebay
- (already have the
'Sugarlump Studio model of Ermintrude, and
the Singing Ermintrude)? But I have car booted
a lot of my cow collection!
