As a word of warning, this is true also for nails, and things to hang pictures, and bolts, and nuts, and a bunch of other stuff so that you can leap into action to do those urgent jobs she thinks need doing.
At some point, you do actually get there, but my experience suggests that either you then die, and leave it all, with tons of other crap, to your son in law, OR, your garage burns down and you have to go to B&Q/Screwfix/Bob's hardware for *every* single damn job for the next ten years, as you never have the right thing. |
