BL> I *hate* the new hardware shops. I used to like the days when
 BL> you grabbed a handful of nails out of the box, put then in the
 BL> brass tray and the man balanced themn up with little weights
 BL> and figured a price in his head. Now they're all in little
 BL> poofy plastic bags.

 BV> The worst part is when you only need 1. You've got to buy a bag
 BV> of 1,000 AAArrrggghhh!!!

  And they're all in millimetres. What's the size of a tap fitting in
mm? You have to hold them up and try to judge the size through the
plastic packing. AAAARRRRggh!

Regards,
Bob
