    I smell a conspiracy theory here.......10mm socket causes loss of aeroplane.....

    Recently my D2 was parked up for four months while the gearbox got done. That meant that the camper was stuck where it was unable to be opened up.
    When I could finally drag the camper to a place where I could open it I was dreading mildew, musty smells and other nasties but I found none of that, thankfully.
    What I DID find in the camper though were two 10mm sockets. I'm quite sure that I have NEVER had a 10mm socket in the camper so I surmise that the only way it could have got there was via a black hole or a shift in the space time continuum or something.
    Cheers,

    So that's where they are, could you please send them back?

    I find that the 10mm socket is quite a tame creature compared to the evil screwdrivers that can read your mind and change from a Phillips head to a flat blade depending on which one you need , and dont get me started on torx drivers

    I suppose it should be in the old farts thread but why do they make the handles of Phillips and blade screwdriver sets the same colour?

    you scrabble around in the drawer when it would be so simple if the blades were green and the Phillips red or whatever.
