Things that have lasted ....

Quite a while!
1. Black and decker work bench. Birthday present from parents in 1986 when I bought a flat and it needed everything done to it. It bears the scars of many DIY accidents.
2. Surform Junior, given as part of a tool set for Christmas aged 8. A long long time ago. Still useful.
3. T Square. Given by my brother on my birthday in 1986. He too was renovating a house and taught me a lot. He put the J on this and other tools he gave me so we knew who's was who's.
