That's why it's called 'Collateral Damage' Richie. You damage/lose your gear & it costs a big chunk of your collateral to replace/fix it ;D ;D ;)

ive left a small club hammer on a stud wall i built
...and if you're anything like me, you grabbed a sheet of plasterboard and nailed it inside. One day, someone will tear a wall down at a certain school in the NE and find one or two tools I 'lost'. :-[
One job I did was to partition a room off with the intention of putting an office at one end, but the door wasn't going in till later in the year. It seemed really bizarre to open the room up again, knowing that it had been completely sealed up for months.
I used to love that job - we'd find loads of period features in the buildings. Fireplaces that had been boarded up, but were complete and intact. Dumb waiters - still working but behind screwed down boards so little fingers didn't get to play with them.

thats where i think my club hammer is, its now got a built in freezer there in front of it.
but today i came in, portacabin where we have our break was infested with greenfly, moths and hornets. the container was left unlocked with everyones tools in it because the temporary site manager who is here this week couldnt be rsed to go around locking everything up. i put everything in my car boot before i left tonight, few pi$$ed off people at work this morning. >:(
