NCArcher 22nd February 2013, 06:00 PM I'll be at a 2yr olds birthday party. :C
Probably a good thing I can't go.
Paul if you see anything I absolutely HAVE to have, go ahead and buy it for me. :o:U
wheelinround 22nd February 2013, 06:53 PM Due to foul weather I am now able to attend.
Tony thats dangerous It'll be Berg Hunting for Paul he's like a horse with blinkers on.:U
Christos 22nd February 2013, 07:50 PM .....Paul if you see anything I absolutely HAVE to have, go ahead and buy it for me....
What's your budget?
Who knows we might just approach couple of the tables and ask what tool they are having trouble getting rid of? That's the tool that Tony absolutely has to have. :harhar:

I dont think the 2 events it will be too disimliar... lots of drool, rush to the sweet(heart)s and maybe a few tantrums.

C'mon 7/16 tang your out there somewhere
Christos 22nd February 2013, 08:12 PM C'mon 7/16 tang your out there somewhere
Now this is going to seem very strange to a lot of people but to those that know me well,,,,, still strange.
What we can do before the doors open is start talking to Pacman and continue to talk to him after the doors open preventing him from entering. Mean while one of the other forum members would go inside purchase all the 7/16 tangs if any could be found. Then after the sale concludes post this on the forum, look what I found. :q
Yeah even after I read this it is strange to me but alas I have posted it. :no:
Pac man 22nd February 2013, 08:21 PM This is the sort of behaviour that we expect from you my friend:; ( oh and NC too)
wheelinround 22nd February 2013, 08:40 PM Christos gee have I got to do all the thinking you'll have 11 clamps in the car surely you can use them to hold him down. He'll really be a Pac-Man
Christos 22nd February 2013, 08:43 PM ..... you'll have 11 clamps in the car surely you can use them to hold him down......
I am just happy to be able to get rid of them in one place. It is just a matter of dropping them off.

The sky's the limit (a very modest and somewhat cloudy sky unfortunately)
Paul will know the correct tool when he sees it.
He is a master in the art of handtooldo.:brucelee: You need total concentration and be able to open yourself to the energy of the tools. The correct tool wants to be found. If the time is right. :bowdown:
