Lego - A Great gift for young kids

Lego has been around for years, I remember playing with it when I was a kid and that was a long time ago.

But boy has it changed since I was young. You can now get pretty much any cartoon, movie, or superhero character in the lego range of toys. I know a little 9 year old boy who was extremely excited when he got the Lego Batman Batcave for his birthday.

This is an awsemone toy, it has over 1000 pieces and as well as Batman, you get, Robin, the Penguin, and the Ice guy (can't) remember his name at the moment.

So if you are looking for a christmas present for a young skid (aged between 3 and 93) then you should have a look at the Lego Batman Batcave, you won't be disappointed, and either will he.

Christmas Gift For The Home HandyMan

DeWalt DW745 Table Saw


Do you have a handyman in your life and you're searching for the perfect gift for him? Well look no further.




I have been a builder for almost 30 years, and a craftsman for almost 50!, and every year my wife has let me buy a new tool for myself for christmas. She always gets me something nice as well.




So over the years I have managed to build up a nice little home workshop where I have built toys for all my kids, and I've now started doing it for the Grandkids.


I've been hankering for a new table saw for quite a while as my old Ryobi is slowly dying. The problem is that as I get older it gets harder for me to move the tools around, so I need something lightweight but still powerful enough to do the job.




I have found the perfect table saw, its the DeWalt DW745, and it is brilliant. It's extremely portable and even has a roll cage to help prevent damage when you're moving it.




This table saw is absolutely perfect for the home shop.
