Re: Murphy's Wife's Law.
"The only fly in the oitment is tools that suddenly disappear and turn up in unexpected places, who moves them?"That is one of life's mysteries... disappearing tools, I'm sure everyone who works in a workshop has a story to tell, you leave something down then reach for it and it's not there, you know you left it there but where has it gone?, you are bewildered and leave for a while, when you come back there it is staring you in the face, you're left scratching your head. I think something unknown to us likes to play tricks on folks working with hand tools, it's been happening to me all my working life, very scary at times.
Now for the wise cracks, go on I can take it.

Re: Murphy's Wife's Law.
Went to doctors last week to collect prescription, there I am sitting in car clutching prescription, ready to take to chemist. I made the mistake of anticipating hubby would, turn in at the chemist, but no he drives past.Aren't you going to stop i asked, well I didn't know you wanted to go to the chemist..
Grr , what did he think I was going to do with it, eat it?
