"B&Q owner Kingfisher has seen its half-year profits increase by more than a

If the claim is correct, I sense a small amount of hope for humanity. Could
the general trend of people becoming more helpless be reversing?

You are clearly prescient. I had an argument with the planer
yesterday; hadn't used it for a long time and had a moment's aberation
resulting in the loss of some skin from the back of a finger. Nothing
serious but I did go along to the local practice this morning to get
it properly dressed.
