    I forgive you Carol I didn't realize that you are one of the fairer sex,If it had been my wife looking at the selection it would have taken her at lest a couple of weeks just to work out what she wanted

    LOL. The joke is, I'm a disgrace to my gender. I hate shopping & generally decide in milliseconds what I want with a noticeable exception.......I love hardware stores and the like (eg. any shop with wood) and can get lost in there for hours. It's a competition between HWMBO and myself as to who can waste the most time in such places and I think I generally win.

    PS. I was serious about the delay being partly because of having internet problems. I spent 90 mins on the phone to Telstra tonight and the end result was I now have NO internet. I don't hink I'll ask for their help again. I've had to log on elsewhere to get internet. Thank goodness I have the mystery box goodies to cheer me up!!

    Carol, I'm with you on the hating shoppping except for anything related to timber My biggest day out every year is the Working with Wood Show for purchases and socially. Anything else I only buy because I need to eat ect. I don't consider myself to be a disgrace to my gender either, just different.

    It's on it's way to Gerry.

    Ended up a little heavy, so I took a 7mm drill out. No photo, coz you know what THEY look like.

    First time I read this, I assumed you meant you drilled the middle of the blanks out to 7mm to save weight

    Looking forward to my turn!

    Cheers,
