Microsoft Sculp Ergonomic desktop set - ergonomic (Natural style) keyboard and mouse. The mouse is a bit blocky, but the keyboard is excellent. I've been using Natural keyboards on and off since 1995. With the 4000 the line went off the rails, it was dreadful and it hasn't been replaced for about half a decade.  The Sculpt is a move back to form. The style is good and it is a good keyboard to type on. I would have preferred a keyboard with real keys, like the first generation, back in the mid 90s, but as we seem to be going to chicklet style keys, this is one of the best I've used. The navigation keys are a little poorly placed, but otherwise it is the best one they've released in over a decade.

Then offer him a bar of Cadbury's in exchange and you have another one for your collection. Win-win.

Wouldn't work - he's got autism so he'll still want the complete collection, plus he was recently diagnosed with diabetes. As a result of all this and the fact he's the first grandchild, he's spoiled rotten! _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

I've ordered a Blade (Marvel) letter opener and a Highlander/Macleod one. You know, to go with my other two letter openers. I know, but they look cool  _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

 They're actually handy for the larger Amazon packages with that stringed tape they use. Or anything shrinkwrapped.

I'm looking at doing this since I rarely use my phone these days except for data. Think I'll wait for a few months until new iphone comes out and either go for that or buy a second hand cheaper 6.

I've got a tariff with all you can eat data and 30 hours talk time (which I never use) for £20 a month. They don't do it any more. _________________Still the official cheeky one

Some Twister lollies and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRV3UhV-nNEThe stand they give you is the same stand for the much smaller 'swords' - and you really wouldn't want that thing falling on your foot  Just awaiting the Blade sword now... _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:
