Folowing on from Lily\'s \' Excitement \' thread
...

Okay, I am that sad that I am now going to ask you all, If you had to rate one of your household / garden gadgets as the most satisfying to use , which gadget would it be ????


Mine would be our Karcher Pressure washer... I actually really love blasting our patio slabs clean !!

Does that make me a freak ??

No it's not a ride-on unfortunately, although we are looking at buying an acreage when we go home so I might get one then

It's a push one but it's got a proper engine (none of these dodgy electric ones with an extension lead!) and it's a 6hp 4 stroke - like you need that much

so do I when I warm the bike up to go to work early

Not going anywhere yet, 2.5 years to go until a British passport for the kids so they can come over here if they want when they're older.

Not sure what happens then, depends what schools the kids are in and what they're up to.

And whether I'm in MotoGP's racing for Ducati ... ahhh


























We can all dream can't we?

Ok! Are we talking ANY power tools here...Desmondo is right! Electric Tile cutter is the biz...
I like the jigsaw but I find it difficult to handle a bit....BUT the CIRCULAR SAW now that IS cool...Used that to cut the ally on my new brackets I made for my "Wobbly cans"...Just cuts through stuff like butter!
I Want a chainsaw next!

Gave my chainsaw to a mate since I didn't have any need for it anymore. The petrol strimmer is the biz though-especially since I run it on avgas and 747 race oil-ahhh the smell, makes me remember the last time I ran a race 2 stroke...........Hold on a minute, that was only last Friday at TA3........
