Workshop clearance. Brand New old stock Front storage box with removable side pods to allow wafer weights to slide on. It was kept from a cancelled order, now needs to go. Private message me if you'd like this at a discount price.

Instead of raising £1.8 billion, the tax raid on farmers and family businesses is expected to cost the Treasury £2 billion! Don’t they consult with business experts or independent economists before they introduce all these new taxes? Sorry, stupid question.
