Bargain Mark and they will enjoy them, I still have mine in the shed along with a little wheelbarrow that we bought our son over 40yrs ago, even though our own grandchildren have grown out of them, its always good to have a few toys for little visitors, saves having to say no when they want to help and you don't want them to handle your tools......

Good quality tools and push mowers are expensive Paul. If you collected unwanted ones and reconditioned them,
they would make a little business for the bad weather
times.

lol I imagine that they'll get a lot of use! more enthusiastic than actually helpful, at first anyway, but a wonderful way to teach young people how do it right, and the right age to teach them, judging by the size of the tools - get 'em young and they'll have it for life. and at a very affordable price, too!

Hi all lol dianebulley not sure what you are on about :))))

Hi paul hopefully one day you will be able to,we are going to have to be careful to as they call my wife julie lol:)))

Hi TT thankyou much appreciated:))))

Hi lincslass glad it brought you some memories back.Yes it is very useful to have little tools so i can find them a place to help safely rather than them trying to use my tools all the time :))))

Hi Hywel thankyou i am sure they will love them:))))

Hi fran yes you are to right as after about 30 minutes they will be on the floor being unused as the little ones will be bored with them lol:))))
