I know, instead of buying a spanner that fits, buy some pliers, hire a grinder and a welder.
Next job. Oh, what did I do with that 17mm open end spanner? Remember now. I will buy a new one when I return the angle grinder and welder.

I am impressed though with how useful the thing was for undoing a nut and bolt, locked in the jaws of a vice. As all stubborn nuts are.

Normally when I see thse facebook posts I call them out as fake, and just assume the poster is an idiot.

This one is quite unusual as it relates to an actual real occurence. It has been reported as actually happening ... once ... in 2008 ... in Australia

Remember people ... be careful of falling for obvious scams.

Only one good thing about my beloved Jack Russell Elvis hitting the age of 16 is he is now totally deaf . He would almost run round the walls of the house terrified barking and crying with the fireworks ,which to me get set off over a longer period and the bloody things are certainly louder..I tried all sorts of remedies over the years and nothing worked .He is laid sound asleep in his bed with not a care in the world tonight .I suppose a blessing of getting old my sympathies to all pet owners on these bastard nights .Does anyone remember been a kid in the sixties and seventies not been allowed to have a firework/bonfire on a Sunday as it was against the law ?.

As I said TG, these fireworks aren't for the kids, they're just to prove that whoever is letting them off is the biggest firework in the street... I bet Elvis hears you rustle a bag of treats though...
