So, my earliest memory of drills was my Dad's B&D. Bought in some kind of sale in Tesco. In those days, B&D sold accessories and kits. So he bought a circular saw kit which was a drill with and adaptor. He realised that by buying a chuck in our local hardware store he would get a drill. Saying that I think he had had something previously that was borrowed and destroyed. He had quite a set of the various attachments (orbital sander, jigsaw) to go with the circular saw.

My first drill was a B&D two speed hammer drill bought for me as an 18th present (a lot of years ago). I reckon it's still in a box somewhere. I have to say my subsequent Bosch purchases were much better.
