    Default Traditional tools group tool sale

    Hello everybody.
    The Traditional Tools group is having a tools sale this Sunday in Sydney and I have my flights paid for.
    So what am I to expect? A wonderful day out? flying back fully laden with tools I hope.
    I have money to spend on some rusty gold!

    Use of a GPS is advised if you are not familiar with Sydney.

    Gee Nads, you are keen! If you can't find something to buy you're not looking hard enough, even my missus buys tools there! I'll see you there.

    Yes do not ask Christos for directions a 20min drive ends up being a 3hr drive to get there.

    Unless you have great restraint, expect to be hitchhiking back even more fully laden
    Every time you make a typo, the errorists win.

    Cripes! I am just wallowing in jealousy about not going to this sale.
    If any of you blokes going could take a few pictures of the over all sale in general plus maybe a few close up ones of the more delectable stalls then I for one would love to see what I am missing out on.

    It's inside.
