Damned right, pens of all varieties, pencils, tape measures, drill bits, etc.
Thing is I work for myself these days, and even though I'm on my own I can never find any of the above when I need them

You know what you need to do then...... start selling the stuff on ebay and make a bit of cash from it! Thats what i did, i had loads of paper/craft stuff that i had "gathered" and thought i could use at home yet i have no children so i made up "craft packs" and sold them on ebay and made almost £100
