51 of 365TTSM - stuff that's too big to fit in the car




Today we bought a sheet of splashback material and when we got it to the car, discovered it was too big to fit. So we went back into the shop and bought a scoring knife with the intent of cutting it down to size. The scoring knife didn't work all that well, so we went back into the shop and bought a hacksaw. When we were about three quarters of the way through cutting it with the hacksaw, the blade broke. By then we were too embarrassed to go back into the shop to buy a new blade, so we got through the last section with the broken bit of blade and a bit of swearing. Then we could fit it in the car, but had to sit squished down into our seats all the way home so we didn't bump our heads on it.
