What I have ordered this for?

I have ordered a load of fasteners from the local engineering suppliers and I also ordered a 13mm and an 18mm drill bit.

What have I ordered the 18mm for I can't remember now!!

I knew why when I asked for it!!

The 13mm is for 1/2" suspension bolts, i can remember that!!

headlamp mounting bolts tend to be around 18mm

what I bought an 18mm drill bit to drill a hole in my head to stop me being forgetful but I forgot what I needed it for?

That might be it but I have completely forgotten!!

for drilling 18mm holes?





The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make it moral.

Call me old fashioned, but I bought a 1/2" drill for that size.

I assumed by the time the holes were painted they would be too small if I used a 1/2" or shall I swap my 18mm for a 1/2" instead?

I'd not take a coat of paint into consideration, use a 1/2 drill

I think that might be it!! I have bought the sleeved inserts now and I am going to turn the piece of steel so I won't need an 18mm drill bit...

.. well not until after I have taken it back anyway!!

has anyone seen my marbles?
