Tools.

[ally406]

Mostly Halfords and Clark stuff here. If you catch Halfords on a 50% off sale you really can't beat them. The only time one has broke was a torx bit on a Sunday which I really needed to finish the job. Went down to the shop, they exchanged a 2 year old item with no receipt on the spot no questions asked. I would very much doubt I could get a replacement on any other brand within 15 minutes on a Sunday.

B&Q "Torque" branded tools seem to be the same stuff and often cheaper (Halfords and B&Q have the same parent company), but you don't get the warranty.

Aldi/Lidle stuff generally punches above their weight. Got a set of ratchet spanners for £7.99 and they're still going 3 years on. You'd struggle to get a single ratchet spanner for £7.99 most other places......certainly a good choice for the first time buyer.
