    After 2.5 years since starting in this game, I'm now on my way down to the office to hand my notice in at the school to go full time for my uncle's firm.

    DADE

    Well I thought I had all the tools and gadgets going! I bought a dust and debris eliminator (DADE) this week and I'm really impressed. It's used for catching the dust from drilling downlighters. Probably the simplest tool I own, but definitely one of the best (perhaps after my wire coat...

    F1 Season 2017

    Much like last years thread, testing still ahead, but I wonder whether this years cars will make things more interesting, all will it still be the procession behind the Mercedes's two cars, with the rest, best of the rest?
