1 Jun '06 3:27 pm Today I went shopping in the local hardware shop for a new yard broom .I saw a great one -it was 90cms wide ! I couldn`t find a little man to ask the price so In order to see the price ,I had to move a hanging shovel .Unfortunately other things were leaning on the shovel ,and there was a loud series of crashes as they all fell down like dominoes - 8 shovels ,3 rakes, a stack of buckets ,4 smaller brooms ,3 hoes ,and a couple of other odd things of a hardware nature .
Three assistants then came running ! (I bought the yard broom ,and it is fantastic )

It's when I'm especially trying to be careful that I do exactly what I don't want to do... bump into things, drop things... at least my hand's steady when I'm pouring someone a cup of coffee!
