Off topic trivia---- we always called those "45 gallon drums", Same drum as the Americans called "55 gallon drums". That was back when we had proper gallons, not those tiny US little things. Now since 1975, it is all in litres or kilopascals or something or other.

I'm with the poor confused hardware store owner who in 1975 advertised a special deal on "Metric Yardsticks"! :)

OK, return to regular programming----
