Following a conversation this lunchtime with someone else who reads
this group (hi Piers), I have an interesting question...

What gadgets does Piers need to buy?

That's easy: what hasn't he got? (Should be a short list...)

Cheers,

What do you buy the guy who has everything? Paracetamol?

What about a little badge, or tie pin or similar, that simply
says...

"I've got everything"

A Klein bottle to keep his stuff in?

Mind you, there's a fruit farm outside Bath [1] that does
absolutely wonderful cider and Cheddar cheese. And you can't get
that place's stuff *anywhere* else, so even the guy who has
everything won't have anything from there (unless he knows about it
already).

In general, unusual foodstuffs are good for the guy who has
everything, since they don't hang around gathering dust...

- see the arrow. The green stuff around the building is where they
grow the apples.
