Not known for being ms well co-ordinated and focussed when it comes to practical tasks. Last time I was staying with DS I managed to melt a plastic kettle all over his plug-in hotplates and ruin 2 things.
This morning he opened the freezer compartment to extract his new shoe. Put there in the interests of removing chewing gum. (how anyone gets chewing gum on the top of a shoe I don't know. But it was London's fault. The city.).
Fails to get drawer open wide enough, pulls shoe too hard, drawer hits the deck along with ice cubes, frozen peas etc. Cracked drawer.
Who I wonder does he take after...
It it just me that finds this kind of nature repeating itself scenario entertaining?

My kitchen's too small to have the luxury of a veg cupboard, jeni.

Or should it be sofa or chaise lounge?

Don't you all have a 'bit' drawer where everything that doesn't have a home
goes?

It will be full of retractable tape measures at the moment! grin

Tegan, probably in the car. It's surprising what ends up in there. shock

Ella our bit drawer is called, ominously, 'The Drawer' accompanied by ghostly type music. grin

I think most of my drawers are 'bit' drawers. Oh dear!
