Having carefully guarded the safety of my only brown LEGO brand common or
garden shovel, I had a minor, completely non-swoosh testing related
accident, wherein a partially completed house and fairly large backyard was
dropped on the Red Baron from a height of 847mm. The only permanent damage
was to a technic peg, and to - you guessed it - the brown shovel.
I’m sure there’s a lesson to be learned there somewhere.

Don’t underestimate Murphys law ??
|
And Murphy’s Second Law (also known as Murphy’s Law of Relativity): Something
does go wrong, it will go wrong in the worst possible way.

No problem with the Brown shovel, they are available at BrickLink, at
inflated prices of course ;-)
|
As well as not underestimating Murphy’s Law, one should never underestimate my
parsimonious nature.

I’ll take one if they’re less than 50c/piece! And that’s Australian cents,
too. ;-)
I recently bought a lot on eBay where the price was nudging 50c/piece, and I’m
still getting over the shock! Mind you, they were nice pieces (nicer than brown
shovels, in fact), but still... 50c/piece... ouch.

| (...) I must apologise! They are under 50c/piece. Having visited his Bricklink store, Martin's shovels are very reasonably priced indeed. I suspect that postage will take it over 50c though... Also, I don't actually have a need for a brown shovel... (...) (21 years ago, 3-Sep-03, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)
