Unlucky coupl'a weeks, and costly too

Just wanting to have a whinge. In the last two weeks, a number of my items of property have decided that they have reached their used by date. Firstly, and most devastatingly, my relatively new (but past their warranty date) snowboard boots. Damn expensive too, and going great, when just last week the stitching figured that it had had enough and was going to bust. Next, the video camera that I've been struggling with for a few years (always had problems, not user based I assure you), has also gone one step too far and must be replaced. To top that off, the tripod that holds said beast, has also managed to fall into numerous pieces while being transported around town. This one is slipped in just for good measure, because it has also been dying over some time, but just so happens to be at an all time low; my laptop PC is giving up the ghost more regularly than ever and needs to be replaced. It is presenting me with the blue screen of death after sometimes only half an hour of use (I used to get a least 2 hours before it rebooted). I'll let you know when I get something else, these things like to attack in large groups.
