Have we got to that age we're actually asking Santa for clothes for Christmas?

You used to get issued a bucket and bailer. The bailer was like a small wok. It was for removing water out of jointboxes. Most people would also use the bailer for having a pee in if you had to nip in the back of the van ��

It's original purpose was to melt lead in for hot plumb joints.
