The Vault

Posted by jason pinder on Monday, November 14, 2011,

Found this great place for cool retro stuff on Abbeydale road over the weekend. It’s called The Vault it used to be the HSBC bank on Abbeydale road.

They sell loads of cool stuff like hand made craft type things to t shirts, records hand done photos and even the odd bit of vintage plumbing!!!!

Well worth a look!

Aldi tool set review

Posted by jason pinder on Thursday, November 10, 2011,


This four piece gift set includes: Jigsaw, Angle Grinder, Drill and Torch.

  • 2 x 18V batteries with 1 hour fast charger
  • 6 HSS drill bits
  • 6 screwdriver bits
  • 5 jigsaw blades (4 for wood, 1 for steel)
  • 2 grinding discs
  • 2 wrenches

Two battery packs included.

Just a quick review of the Aldi 4 piece set I purchased the other day for the insane price of £39.99!

You can’t get a lot for your money these days especially tools but I my opinion this set it really great value.

You get ...

About Me


Hi Just a little bit about me, I have been involved with plumbing almost as long as I can remember. My father is a plumber and I always wanted to follow in his footsteps even as a small boy. It might sound a little odd but I do have a genuine love for this industry and I would never do anything to bring this in to question. I firmly believe in doing any job of work to the highest standards possible. I am NOT in this industry to make a fast buck my reputation means more to me than money. I have been trained to the highest industry recognised standards possible studying for five years at technical collage plus working in the industry under constant assessment. I started as a self employed plumber about eight years ago after growing unhappy with the ways larger companies treat the customer and the prices they charge! On a personal level I enjoy spending time with my family especially outdoors. We love walking in Derbyshire and especially like climbing in the Peak District. Most of the best climbers were Plumbers!!
