Alf,

'Twas a lovely pair of skew chisels in cocobolo.

BUT, that really is IT! NO MORE TOOLS!!

Martin

(as if........)

OK, so if I find a nice little tool store you won't want anything?

Don't deny yourself, save it for the Toronto WW Show.

Well SWMBO just came home from a day out shopping with her mate sporting a sheepish grin and a new Paul Smith handbag. I figure that means I can buy myself a Tormek with complete impunity, right?

Oh well, I suppose I'd better confess to:

"Modern Plywood" by Shirley B. Wainright (obviously Hetty's great aunty as the book was published in 1927.....)

a previously unseen (at least by me) 1970s Wadkin catalogue and a very nice bottle of Port Ellen 20 years (that's a single malt from an Islay distillery which closed years ago for those who didn't know). I think I'll regard the latter as a gloat 8)
