I can't decide if we should all be be tidy, communicate better or just
leave each other's **** alone.

I'd go with the latter and it's a plan that generally works well here
[1]. ;-)

A non technical mate was asking me for help on some compressor hose /
connections and I asked him for a close-up picture of the fitting(s)
and some measurements with the vernier caliper I'd suggested he get a
while back and I'd see if I could help him sort something out.

It turns out the vernier had been 'Put away' in his lockup several
miles away, in spite of him having a massive empty house and
proportionally large and mostly empty (brick built) 'shed' with an
empty toolbox?

Wouldn't that sort of thing be in a 'man' / bits draw somewhere, if
not in a workshop? I have one in nearly every room (and the workshop),
that way I can always find one. ;-)

even try to 'tidy it up'. Plus, why should she? ;-)
