I have plenty of hidden talents,
where "talents" = "small coinage and random pieces of paper"
and "hidden" = "trapped down the back of the couch".

In fact there is no substantive point to this post other than to say that I have just bought one of those fecking laser temperature guns everyone was harping on about last week, and because I am innately addicted to gadgets, I had to have one. So I hope you're happy.

I singed all the hair of my right hand in the pizza oven at the weekend.

Authentically burned hair

Laser temperature thingies, also double as a cat toy.

I hadn't thought of that.
Bonus.

Next model up, I think.
I paid £14 for it, and there was a supplier selling it for a tenner but they didn't ship outside the UK so I had to get it from someone else. The thing's shipping from China anyway so I don't know why they bother having shipping policies like that.

Now I've just ordered one...
The fact it doubles as a cat toy makes it an even better buy

Be wary of shiny things
The reflection of the laser will hurt and knacker your eyesight for about 10 mins. Dull surfaces are fine, bare metal's usually the culprit.
