Default Screwfix just up the road!

Screwfix have just opened a branch abut 2 miles up the road. Easy
parking, just across from Sainsburys!

Been in there three times already, as I'm in the middle of a job. Last
time was today, and I picked up the new catalogue and the free boot bag.

I'm finding them quite useful too - on a main cycle route so it costs
me nothing to get there.

Won't your bike go on other roads then? Mine will. It will go pretty
well anywhere. Wrong way up one way streets is no problem. Footpaths,
anything.

Having the shop at the side of the cycle track does offer a certain
tranquility compared to B&Q on a dual carriageway.

Possibly so but if you are expecting a revenue stream of royalties, I
suspect you are in for a disappointment :-)

I don't even get much in royalties from my books.

Not only are you a reactionary, you are a blatant (and dangerous IMHO)
law breaker as well.

I regret that I have. I can only assume it is either an in joke or a
naive understanding of copyright law.

Now have 3 locally .... but also have Tool Station ......... always look
to see if they have what I want first, cheaper, and a much faster buying
experience.
Plus if it isn't in stock free next day postage to you.
