In which A-WAY

When last we saw our hero, he had gained the upper hand on the the Mutant Garage from Hell, and had wrestled it to the ground, without injury or damage.

Almost. 

He now had to induce it to leave the premises Vigorous persuasion was required, so the demonic contract with the Saw of Reciprocity was extended. It's called the Saw of  Reciprocity, because the damage it does to the target is balanced by the damage it does to the hands of the user.)

We begin with the Dumpster of Unusual Size, seen here in the background.  (Visiting Anglican Cleric for scale.) There is no larger in the Valley of Apples and Wine. Notice that it sits crosswise in the driveway. This was the best the delivery guy could do without accidentally putting his rig into the creek across the street. It is 30 cubic yards. (The cubic yard is the equivalent of the metric measurement "kindofalot." That would make this dumpster the equivalent of the metric 1.5 helluvalots.)

And so the long week wore on. As the days slowly disappeared in a welter of sweat, frustration and trashed saw blades, so did the garage,

And now for shovel and broom...

It did not go without a fight. As the battle progressed, it resisted by slowly turning, in places, into something like topsoil. Kind of hard to pick up and drag to the dumpster. Here we catch it part way through the transformation.

30 seconds later, you could plant daisies in it.

Eventually, the last of it was here:

That's right. The Dumpster of Unsurpassed Largeness was not large enough. We filled another 10 yard dumpster.

In the process, it destroyed one circular saw demolition blade, dozens of recip. saw blades, and a pair of brand-new leather work gloves.

It didn't do the cornet player a lot of good either.

Cornet player. Portions of warranty no longer valid.

But, Plumbun Major perhaps summed it up best:

"Dadats. Saaaw. Uh-oh. A-gain. BOOM! A- Way."

Watch this space for a quick one in which there is an almighty screwing up.
