Recently I have purchased a couple of things that I think are worth sharing:

These are brilliant for coffee and especially good for crio bru.  Available at the moment from here.  Cheaper to buy direct from USA but everywhere seems to be sold out currently.

and

thai fisherman pants from teh pants
I have been buying these for quite a few years.  Cheap, 100% cotton, hard wearing and very comfortable.

They both look interesting, especially the pants.

I should have mentioned that the teh pants people offer great service. Nothing but nice things to say about them. Bought my first lot from the Mindil beach markets in Darwin. Have bought them online since then.

I'd be lost without my aprons.... They are always in the wash...... And without that could be my clothes!

Thanks Robyn, I'll have a look.

I probably should have thought to put my latest shopping on here for those who didn't see my seperate thread - a home Tandoor.

So you bought it?  I'm extremely jealous. I'd love to know how you go with it.
