    Surprisingly true ... . .Huh? 1) Triangular sandwiches taste better than square ones. 2) One of the most awkward things that can happen in a pub is when your pint-to-toilet cycle gets synchronized with a complete stranger. 3) You've never quite sure whether it's ok to eat green crisps. 4) Everyone who grew up in the 80's has entered the digits 55378008 into a calculator. 5) Reading when you're drunk is horrible. 6) Sharpening a pencil with a knife makes you feel really manly. 7) Nobody ever dares make cup-a-soup in a bowl. 8) You never know where to look when eating a banana. 9) Its impossible to describe the smell of a wet cat. 10) Prodding a fire with a stick makes you feel manly. 11) Rummaging in an overgrown garden will always turn up a bouncy ball. 12) The smaller the monkey the more it looks like it would kill you at the first given opportunity. 13) Old women with mobile phones look wrong ! 14) Its impossible to look cool whilst picking up a Frisbee. 15) Driving through a tunnel makes you feel excited. 16) There's no panic like the panic you momentarily feel when you've got your hand or head stuck in something. 17) No one knows the origins of their metal coat hangers. 18) The most painful household incident is wearing socks and stepping on an upturned plug. 19) People who don't drive slam car doors too hard 20) You've turned into your dad the day you put aside a thin piece of wood specifically to stir paint with. 21) Everyone had an uncle who tried to steal their nose. 22) Bricks are horrible to carry. 23) In every plate of chips there is a bad chip. :-D

                      As funny as it may sound they are a real product for carring bricks. Masons have some cool tools. :)
