Another day, another irritation. Like London buses, you wait ages for one then two arrive at once.
Poor old Dad's balance, mobility and reaction times are very poor these days.
Yesterday he slipped in the bathroom and grabbed hold of the towel rail.
Dad was OK but the same can't be said for the towel rail.
Yesterday afternoon I went into town and bought a much sturdier replacement to install this morning. Tools required included a 6mm drill.
I have just never got the hang of the metric system. There I've admitted it.
I used both Imperial and Metric at school and accept that calculations are far easier in metric but that's not the point.
I can look in a box of drill bits and nine times out of ten will manage to correctly pick out a quarter inch drill and not a 5/16ths one.
Can I do the same when it comes to looking for a 6mm drill?
Not a damned chance!
Er, that's it really. Rant mode to standby.
