Okay, I'll be the one to bite. Who are the McCallisters?It's been 33 years and I've just realised I have no idea what the McCallisters do for a living to afford such a big hoose

Ah, there are fb threads about this sort of stuff. Usually loft apartments in New York being the best example. Friends, Sex in the City and so on.

Putting the car into drive instead of reverse when there’s a 70ft drop in front of me. Thank god for a solid fence post well concreted in.
Worryingly, after 45 years of accident free driving this was the 3rd incident in 3 months. Bumpers, back & front, looking a bit battered.

Add to that how they can afford to take that many people to Paris at the most expensive time of year. I say organised crime

Guy at my old golf club did that - drove into the pond...
Maybe just complacency and this scare will get you more focussed when you start a journey. Last week I put the teaspoon in the bin and my yoghurt put in the washing up bowl...

@Voyager EMH solved it, see above. It's a Home Alone reference

Have you seen Home Alone?
In the film, their house is huge, they have a big family, go on expensive holidays. How can they afford it, what do they do?

Luckily the drift was only about 9mm over the length of the cut. So I can re-cut and only lose 18mm which the client is ok with as I did suggest the units were slightly oversized to begin with.I feel your pain.
I once fitted a 3metre roller blind outside recess. I used my small spirit level as I was feeling too lazy to go out to car to get a longer one.
I got a call that night from customers husband to say blind was not level.
Turned out he was a carpenter and told me I was 11 mill out. He let me use his long level as I refitted it.
As he pointed out, "The wider you go the further out you will be".
Lesson learned!
Just annoying that I did didn’t notice it, looks like the square has been damaged in the last week as it was bang on this time last week cutting MDF sheets. Just decided to wait until I was cutting the expensive stuff

There is a squirrel currently banging his head against a wall right now.
Okay, the main characters in the film are called the McCallisters. The Macually Culkin character, see earlier picture, is called Kevin McCallister. Their house is huge............
See the film, please, for all of our sakes
The novelisation says the dad was a businessman and the mum was a fashion designer.

It’s obviously a slow slime day
I just didn't know what the hell they're talking about until LT spelled it out for me.
Am I right in assuming that 'the film' they're talking about is called Home Alone?

There’s lots of nutjob theories but the one I think is most likely is that it’s not real and they live in a big house because the film would only last 5 minutes if it was small.
