So i win an auction on ebay for a display cabinet, I drive 1.5 hours to go and pick it up, load it into the back of the car, turn the corner, decide i want to make it more secure for the trip home, and then a drawer slides out landing on the glass doors, smashing them to pieces.
I hate gravity.
On the plus side, I drove through the Galston Gorge for the first time today (I am on my L's) And I didn't kill us!
For those who dont know the galston gorge is a series of hair pin turns. Not fun. Alot of swearing there too.
The moral of this story is don't trust drawers.

OH OH AND I FORGOT THE BEST PART!!!!!!!!
On the way home we stopped in at kellyville pets to take a look, and i found a Purple lighter which was reasonably full on the ground, and it STILL WORKED! so at least the 3 hour drive wasn't completely wasted, or and we picked up some styrofoam boxes on the side of the road, for an incubator (any one know how we can sanitize them?)

Have not driven galston gorge for 15 years. Probably hasn't changed except for the amount of road users. Baad luck about the glass.
