Total Shock

I dropped a spanner into my heating tank, while trying to unclog the pipe, which was blocked by Berkshire's famous lime scales.

I squeezed myself in between the tank and the hot air cupboard walls for hrs, trying to fish it out with ladles, magnatized drivers/philips, wooden spoons and a hammer, and decided that if I slip, I will end up
breaking my neck bone, as I will be trapped by the insulator.

I now need to buy some industrial magnet to literally stick it out from the tank the size of a small composter.

It is just so sad when something you could almost foresee in your head before it happens, then it really happens just as you saw.

Like de ja view. (How do you spell it??)
