I haven't bought any tools for a while, I bought a halfords professional socket set about 2 years ago and its still going strong.
the other day, the door bell rang and a bloke from up our street was stood there asking me if I wanted some tools.......after I said yes, he came back with a big bucket of imperial spanners and sockets, all for free as he was having a clear out  _________________ "people with money buy a Rolls Royce, people with taste buy an Alvis". |
