Otherwise, if you can stretch to £120, you can have a Makita 8228
14,4v drill.

£120? Cor! He can get a Kress/Wickes 14.4v and a Kress/Wickes circular
saw
for that amount.

He could also get lunch for two with wines at Le Manoir for that.
The midweek break is a little more.

As well as the drill and saw?



No. They have an August offer for lunch at £60 a head..
Alternatively, you can go for the mid-week break with overnight stay
and dinner for approx. £500-600. For a special occasion, that is
truly something. I did forgo some power tool purchases for it,
but the return on investment was well worthwhile.
