Driller killer
I'd recently moved away from my parents and had borrowed an electric drill to put up a shelf at my new place.
A few days later, I was going to be in their area as I was meeting some mates in the local pub, so I took the drill with me to drop back.
The parents were away on holiday, but my younger brother, who was about 16 then, was at home on his own.
By the time I got round to the house, it was late, and in darkness. My brotyher had gone to bed.
I had a mate with me.
So we sneaked in, and went upstairs. We plugged in the drill on the landing, I hid, and my mate turned it on and stood there.
Eventually my brother's bedroom door opened. He took one look at the stranger on the landing, cradling the whining electric drill, and fled back to his room, and hid under the duvet.
Length? I think it was a 0.5cm drill bit.
(Pop!)

umm
0.5cm, surely that is width not length. Gosh.

Feel the width
I stand corrected (and salute your pedantry)

5mm!
cm's are for science boffins
