Someone has to be there to drop it so someone must be there to see it.
That's what my hen said.

I think you're confused. The buttered toast thing is about ascertaining the quality of a carpet. The toast will land butered side down on better quality carpets. It doesn't make any mess on cheeap stuff.

It is getting to the point when I am being asked what I want for Xmas, and as usual I can't come up with much.
So, what really useful or fun stuff should we have on our Xmas lists? My usual problem is that if I want it and it is affordable, I've probably bought it, otherwise it is too expensive for a present.

Exactly my problem as well Chris. I'd like a Fein Multimaster but its well over our agreed pressie limit. I'm asking Santa for a Dremel this year - and I have been a good boy.

No, no
Aim high. You *need* a Multimaster. Promise a trip to Rovaniemi. When's your birthday or the cat's birthday?
I have a Dremel and a Multimaster. The Dremel is certainly useful for things that it does well. The Multimaster gets used loads more - probably my most used power tool. Otherwise, buy it through the business.... Seriously, I think you'd get a lot of value from one.

A really powerful torch is always handy, so how about a 3watt LED Lenser?
The 1.5watt are still very bright, and there is a selection here:
If that is still too expensive, there are some good discounts here:

That's the trouble with getting old, there's nothing you need which you haven't got.
An evening at the theatre perhaps? A flint knapping course? A flying lesson? A falconry weekend?
Just things I've arranged for Spouse in the past.

Last year I got a radiator from my parents, fence posts from my Grandad and an extractor fan from my brother. I bought my Dad a Rothenburger blow torch, and my brother a CU (which I had to fit for him of course).
This year I am giving the wife divorce papers for her Christmas present and I am not sure I will have any change left to buy any presents for anyone.

What about the attachments (boiler, pipes, TRVs, other radiators etc. ?)
LOL!
Now that's something I hadn't thought about ...
... but after 47 years I haven't the energy. We used to say that we stayed together because of the children - neither of us wanted them.
