Yes, don't we know it. What a t**t he was.

You are allowed to say twit on here Welshie

You can in fact have too many tools. Mr WD has a garage and shed full of them.

Good quality tools never come amiss and nothing is cheap nowadays. Mind you I got a good set from Aldi/Lidl which have served me well.

Thats my point. I just didn't think you needed to spend that much. Not that I have bought them for yonks.

Dunno but I wish I'd gone there last night....... barely slept a wink.

Being on here at three(Any good jokes) won't have helped.

I bought this set from Amazon for about £12 a few years ago, great quality and a mix of hex and torx, showing as no longer available but I'm sure there are similar ones still there.

Don't all of you mock my investments . Last week I was $46 dollars down. I bought gold. You can't go wrong with gold can you? Yes. You. Can.

Avoid oil for what's left of the year, and keep an eye on it from the 23rd January onwards.

A belated good morning to all.
What a night !!!
Woke at 0600 with such a headache. Honestly can't recall one like it.....sharp and fierce.
Took 2 tablets and slapped lavender on. Woke at 0830 feeling drugged. Slowly coming round now thankfully.

@Dirk a BIG question for you.
Christmas day in the caravan. Your meal will be chips and egg etc etc.
How will you do the chips ? Chip pan or oven cook?

My problem was that I had several sets of tools in different places. Workshop, boat, motorhome, and house. Now I only have a house but lots of tools except the one I really need somehow.

I have some torx but they are very rarely needed. Trouble is when you do need one nothing else will do.

Hope you're feel better sooner rather than later.

I have been browsing the stock market. I have made a massive $6 dollars by dumping easyjet and buying Ocado .

Ocado is one of my biggest customers, very quick payers.

And their stock is going up. . Good to invest in.

Two pillows and a battery operated light with built in sensor was the extent of my middle isle spend.

I am going out for a bike ride, if I can remember how to do it.
