    Here's what I went for this week.
    Regarding the printer, Canon don't supply a USB connector, so I had to eBay one for €4 (arrived this morning). It's a Type A to Type B connector for those who are looking for one themselves.

    The PC's mouse is a bit flimsy, so I replaced it with a wireless one from Argos I already had for my laptop (costs about €5).
