Now most of us don't have a nice man from Snap-On dropping by & replenishing our fully kitted out surgically clean workshops, so for us mere mortals Halfords is doing great deals on their Advanced Range of socket sets £185 off a £370 set of sockets seems pretty good to me. They have ranges from 30 piece to 200 piece sets. I should imagine that they are more than adequate if you are just tinkering.

They also have a lifetime guarantee!

You haven't met "Thor " have you !!!

Had an interesting look around Jaguar's Castle Bromwich XJ and F-Type production lines yesterday... given the location, there was a disappointing lack of "Birmingham Screwdrivers" in use!

Responding to Westside's initial comment, most of my toolkit is what I used for maintaining my car at University 35+ years ago!

i get a feeling i may be introduced to 'Thor' tomorow

Westside
Oh Yes......
