    Of course - you let yourself become a target when you entered the fray on dry Weetabix. You only have yourself to blame Dave! ;P

                  It was just the one that got stuck! Mate fixed it though, with the help of a tungsten carbide hole saw and 4 hours of mind numbing drilling on the nut.

                          Diamond. :-D That is why it took 4 hours with even a drill with tungsten carbide tip. That also explains why he paid so much for his car.

                                    I much prefer dryer cereal to the toxic sludge produced by milk, and I also happen to like dry Weetabix with sugar, but for practical reasons I normally lubricate it just a little, with yoghurt. It doesn't soak in and make soggy.

                                      6. On entering employment, remember that it doesn't say anywhere in your contract that your job will be easy or fair.
