I've got a mix of Britool, Half%r$s (I'm an FE/VX fan as well and can't type the Blue Oval's name out in full), Kamasa and a lot of American kit - mainly Sears Roebuck's "Craftsman" range with lifetime guarantee, about which they're serious: ratchet repair kits which have everything but the handle cost a cent each over the counter!
I've also obtained from a US trip a "Sidewinder" Ratchet - 3/8" drive with a T-handle that you twist to drive the head - it's ideal for those bolts you can see, get a socket on but can't turn a ratchet handle on - I'll post a photo as soon as I re-locate it and the camera!
