When my step-father had his, someone gave him the book 'I just had brain surgery, what's your excuse?' or something like that- and he Loved it. good book.<br />also- I've often wanted something like a heat-proof glove for ironing those little bits of a project. -To be able to stick a finger under a seam and press it open!
