Best present we've had in recent years was our slow cooker. Followed closely by an amazing giant wok. We'd much rather receive a useful gift than the tat that will end up stuffed in a draw, or if it's really awful...the bin |

"So would you be chuffed to receive a new hoover or a cordless screwdriver ? 
Not at present as both of my current ones work fine!"
You are just ungrateful...  |

No man would turn down tools, doing so would void his manliness and render him a sissy. I love getting useful stuff, it's the useless things i can't abide. For example a nice Kenwood mixer or a new shovel would be ace. A novelty toilet brush or fingerless glove I could mange without. |

"Waiting on a shaft? Please someone jump on this before I set loose my humour."
You don't jump on an Adze shaft ....
They are made too slide in with a graceful yet satisfying clunk.. |

I'd love a Dewalt cordless screw something or other (and a tool belt) so I can screw stuff and drill holes. Failing that I'd also like a router so I can make stuff out of wood and they'd look pretty. |

“You buy furniture. You tell yourself, this is the last sofa I will ever need in my life. Buy the sofa, then for a couple years you're satisfied that no matter what goes wrong, at least you've got your sofa issue handled. Then the right set of dishes. Then the perfect bed. The drapes. The rug. Then you're trapped in your lovely nest, and the things you used to own, now they own you.” |
