Random musings and general banter.

Wonder what make they are?

He never says, he just says, whatever he's selling he always says he has a more expensive version at home and the cheaper IW version is better.

Whatever he has, the Dyson blows it out of the water.

Torchy and the wing commander.
I see they've put the two most boring tw@ts on at the same time.
I think they must be trying to get us all to follow Pedro's advice and get early nights to bed to save money!

Knowing him, the same ones as Mike of the Masons: the Apple AirPods Max, which RRP @ £499.

I seem to recall Mike alluding to them in a show when he was selling some cheap plastic headphones.

Would've been something like: "I treated myself to some new headphones – expensive ones — and I mean expensive — by the fruit brand. Y'know the one… go over the head, perfect for my man cave. Pricey, but I work hard for my pennies and I luuuuurve music. But these ATSYFL ones we just got in the business? I promise you they are every bit as good, and for fraction of the price. Bring it - 3-2-1… £14.99! Is that right? Blimey – get in quick gang, these are gonna go".

They're a bit of a joke. The kind of headphones someone buys because they want to be seen to care about "quality sound" rather than buying something …that is actually quality sound (for less). I live in Exeter and all the Exetaaaaah uni students walk around in them… while probably not listening to anything…

A colleague of mine told me a couple of days ago that she slipped down the stairs, she was wearing Primark slippers. I always wear their slippers but I live in a flat!

I’ve never ever been able to keep mule type shoes or slippers on. Since I hurt my back 40 odd years ago, it’s usually flat lace up or strapped shoes, occasionally wore heels to special “dos”. Since I was a child always worn pump style slippers.

These days fluffy lined slippers with an adjustable Velcro strap and non slip indoor/outdoor soles. As I have to get up/down the stairs holding on to the bannister with one hand and walking stick in other, I need the security of well fitting slippers.

Looks about 3 mtrs.

They say 90 x 90cm. Which is wrong, should be 90 inch drop.

Really must read stuff on forum rightly. I thought the 3metres was referring to Galesgirl’s comment about Torchie’s tight trousers.

Those headphones are ugly. (Torchy just said his kids are called Orion and Archer).

 

[Jazzydrury]

I agree those headphones look heavy

Even he couldn't have one that big!

 

[galesgal57]

I don't want to know about air quality when I'm listening to music, also the visor makes you look like a tw*t.

Yes but this is IW, the shopping channel of exaggeration.

 

[Francy19]

Wow, I am genuinely impressed. Those Dyson headphones are £549.99 from John Lewis, so they are a good deal

There's sure to be something wrong with them.

 

[galesgal57]

I know what they remind me of, Gort, from The Day the Earth Stood Still (the original).

I thought they might be on older version but they look identical to the ones on John Lewis and the Dyson website??

I'm very sceptical of IW doing great deals on better quality items. They recently sold Molton Brown and Yankee Candles, both of which were old stock, at least two years old.

 

[Battiola73]

I’ll stick with my Bose noise cancelling headphones.
