What a wonderful Christmas gift, these 80 pack pegs came in two canvas bags – one for me and one for my daughter! And she has just replaced her hills hoist (inherited when they bought their house) which had collapsed due to rust from the sea air. So marine grade pegs are just the thing, and how smart they look. Seems funny waxing lyrical over such a mundane article!!
