    You are totally correct with that. How could you tell?
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Had 3 x 20l containers worth nicked a few years ago by the feral crackhead at the neighbouring business. Fucked off wasn't even close. I get quite a few dud car batteries through work, any easy way of reclaiming the lead without burning skin/driveway and getting the bomb squad out?
