What?!?
Why, someone else's drill, of course! Have you no friends with tool boxes?

The sad truth is, Helenelizabeth, Poor Old Sancho has No Real Friends left at all. I´ve been spending far too much time on this thread, and not sleeping too well either, what with the nightmares about Swaros with holes in, Coffee made from Poo, and Elephants eating my Hat. (Now that I think about it, this is the most fun thread I´ve ever seen, it should become a Permanent Display in some museum or Home for the Bewildered....)

oh dear, oh dear, after reading these posts i think i am losing the will to live, i am so glad i have nikons.
Do they have a hole in? If not, Ensis will be only too happy to put them right with his new Cordless Drill.
Presumably what´s left, after removing the coffee beans, goes on to become Maxwell House Instant Coffee.

Gotta love your sense of humor :t: Funny thread indeed, great laughs :clap:
No need to worry. There is no problem.
Ever seen a Kalahari tribesman lighting a fire?
All you need to drill holes is a pointed stick of hard wood. Press it tightly between the palms of your hand. Then rub your hands. The stick will rotate and drill and drill and drill .....
After some practise your friends - this skill will attract new ones - will start to call you The Living Drill.
If the gospel spreads, Swarovski might even offer you a job in their EL department.
With very best wishes for your career,

This weekend, when I clean off the elephant dung, I will look for the hole.
And you have to use the EL´s upside-down, preferably standing on your head, in order that the Nitrogen doesn´t all escape.
It is a bit of a laugh, isn´t it? At first it had me frustrated, now it´s light relief, and I think the prizes go to Leif and Stuart for rapid-response one-liners. The problem is, Mrs. Sancho is on holidays in China with the little Sanchettas, so Poor Lonely Old Sancho has too much time on his hands for frivolities like this thread. At what stage, though, do the Moderators come in with Riot Shields and Tear Gas and force us all back into our cells?

Careful you don't breathe it in or you'll get the bends. That's why you'll never see divers using Swarovskis.
I think they are at ease with "care in the community".

All this talk about holes is making me feel left out because my Leicas don't have one. Anyone got a cordless drill they can lend me? 8-P
Pity they don´t use Helium. Then we could all suck it out through the focus bridge hole, and I for one could try and attract new friends by speaking in an Amusing High-Pitched Voice. Between that and ThoLa´s Binocular Hand-Drilling Ceremony, my Social Life would improve considerably.

Take care that upon her return she is not going to find you at the computer.
She might be enticed to call the "four feet under squat" to take care of you ...... and your credit card.
It would be a loss to see you disappear from this forum.
