Attack of the tools!

-

Tommy Grühn of Welgelegen, Parow writes I was highly amused to read Wicus’s tale of woe about his missing phone and headset cords. I have a similar problem on a much larger scale with power tool cords. Being a DIY person from a very early age (I am now 80), I always take great care with storing them in a clean cupboard with neatly wrapped cords. Every time I had to use one of them, the cords were all jumbled up.

I’m sure the tools get together at night and plot to annoy me intensely. I always have to untangle them when I only need one machine. I’m also convinced that every now and then my hosepipe tries to kill me… Keep up the good work!
