Doing some tiding up and decided to empty one of those red plastic crates that are used to 'keep things tidy' and found, amongst other stuff these:-

Amongst all the other stuff were some bits I had picked up cheap from somewhere and an aerosol can of paint (unused) and a bottle of drain cleaner/brazing pickle (ditto)

The cleaner had burst, the aerosol had corroded through and the bits and pieces slightly corroded. Total loss these, the keys for the lathe tools, 4 end mills and a cheap pair of electrical nippers.

I think they must have been in there since the last Bristol Show as there were also the two sets of the miniature laser cut spanners I bought off the Blackgates stand – but these being stainless the grot just washed off under the tap and are fine.
