Have found some of the weirdest lookin tools n sh*t ive ever seen. After this im thinking of having a little sort through all the garbage.. the pics show the "clean and most organised" corner of the shed so u can imagine the rest..Senna, yeah that's it, cheersthe other forum has replied once saying its a Buik (Fail) Edited 06/01/09 05:33 AM by XRSics
