Well my 6 year old has been 'helping' me with my woodworking and DIY for a few years now and is getting quite a nice collection of tools (cordless drilll, old orbital sander etc). Of course this probably explains the quality of some of the stuff I've (we've) made.

And could they also chuck out the fat women in leggings? And the pensioners wearing baseball caps?
I hope not after dark. ;-)
No - my local common is Wandsworth.
So you're the one who never puts stuff back in the right place in B&Q? ;-)
It's spotty oiks with minds like that which are probably why you can never find the right bolts in the designated bins. Hours I have spent.

(a) I was not a spotty oik at 6.
(b) I spent a good ten minutes last week tidying B&Q's cable display for them.
(c) I had my Lego all sorted into multicompartment boxes by size/type/colour of brick.

Yes, but in Builder's Merchants the hassle is the minimum 1hr wait until you are deemed worthy to talk to the clown in the brown overcoat. Plus the hassle of dealing with the Dr Drivel clone in the brown overcoat.
I tried to buy some tile cement in our local BM.
Me: I want 20Kg of Keraflex.
He: What do you want it for?
Me: It's tile adhesive, I want it to stick tiles to a wall.
He: What you want is...
Me: What I want is 20Kg of Keraflex.
He: What for?
Me: To stick tiles on the wall.
He: What you want is...
Me: What I want is 20Kg of Keraflex, are you going to sell it to me?
He: What sort of tiles?
Me: Marble.
He: You can't stick those on a wall.
Me: Yes I can, with Keraflex.
He: No you can't.
.. sound of door closing and my car starting.
Life's too bloody short for Builder's Merchants.
I've only occasionally had that one and cut them short at the first question, by saying that it doesn't matter and what's the price.
Knick Knack, Paddy whack.

Whilst ejecting them on taste grounds would be perfectly understandable, if not laudable, we'll say "No" at the moment on the grounds that they aren't actually endangering themselves and others around them.

Edward VI was the last, wasn't he?
Ours had them has well, now 10 and 7. Neither liked having reigns on but provided they held hands when very little or stayed close and behaved themselves when bigger they didn't have to wear them. Just taking them out of your pocket was enough to get proper behaviour...
It's taken you long enough. Just as well Mary's away...
Does it work with 23 year olds? ;-`)

Pffffft. Only about a minute from first seeing it - and most of that was just checking Wikipedia for which Edward it was...
I'm told there are clubs around Soho where it does.
The building in Hatton Garden was turned into rented office space. I did the HVAC control system.
Do you mean in the design sense, the installation sense or the sexual sense?
You mean you picked some of the order off the warehouse racking... :~))
Given he doesn't know how to wire a two-way switch I'd say the anti-fantasy tablets have worn off.
Just as well, really. Can you imagine the queues for the washrooms while his favourite twin combis struggle to supply the hot water?
