Aprosexic - Old age should burn and rave at close of day

Always the last to know.

Today's lyric:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Well it's a shame when you got nobody
And it's a drag when you got no friends
But it's worse when you get no mercy
And you're startin' all over again."

The Tubes: "No mercy"
From the album: "Remote control"

I've got one of those tellies

I managed to get the first holding screw out of the iron without too much difficulty.

Then I was confronted by two screws, the heads of which I'd never seen the like of before (and that's after attempting some 20 mends of individual electrical pressing-type appliances during the course of our married life - honestly).

So out to the garage, to try and hacksaw a gap in an otherwise perfectly useable screwdriver, for to remove the remaining pins. Result: one screwed screwdriver.

Eventually, a pair of needle-nose pliers were employed to winkle out the recalcitrant little bu99ers and then the whole gubbins fell out.

At which point, Number One Son entered the kitchen, apprised the situation in a flash and remarked "Father, why do you bother trying to fix irons? You're crap at it."

Out of the mouths...
