OK, got my parents asking what I'd like for my birthday. They laughed at the suggestion of F550 in silver (why?
) but they did take me seriously whne I said tools and stuff for the bike/car...
OK, so for about £100, what could I have?
Nice tool chest? More tools? Renthals for the bike?
Any ideas? I loikes this oi do

Based on my recent experiences on bike maintenance with A2Y I'd consider the following (not sure what you've already got in the tool line)
A torque wrench which has settings to cover all the needs of your bike (low end sometimes is the problem) (40 notes)
Decent digital tyre pressure gauge (10 notes)
Box of latex gloves (6 notes)
Ketten Max chain scrubber (35 notes)
Box of 24 Yorkie Bars to munch whilst working (7 notes)

I would make a list of either halfords professional or draper expert stuff and give it to them. Let them buy you what they want.
or go with Jock's suggestion.
Either of these ranges are more than adequate for the home workshop.
