In tesco this evening, picking up a few bits 'n' bobs and saw the tesco "multil tool"
Stainless steel, with a carry pouch - similar to a leatherman but obviously without the quality includes a range of normal functions including pliers, wire cutter, screwdriver, bottle opener, file, knife and a 'screwdriver' bit attachment with a range of bits that go in the carry pouch.
So it might be abit heavy and only last one season but at this price you afford to throw it away at the end of the season and buy a new one next year. I'm certainly going to chuck one in the glovebox as well as on in the tool kit as it costs
FOUR QUID...

Some orphaned kid in China must have gotten up early out of his cardboard
box and worked a whole week, earned a bowl of rice to make that for for 50
cents and Tescos would have made £3.75 profit then sacked the kid when
they found a younger one to do it for 25cents next week.

And what about the nippers who make your pink puff bags.. they probably get paid 0.01c each...
