inI finally understood why my site dig in Cornwall kept getting flooded
Ever think a soil survey was overkill for a small project? I used to be right there with you, figured you could just dig a bit and see what's up. But hearing about your buddy's swamp shed really shows how wrong that is. Clay's a nightmare that hides until it's too late, and now I get why the pros always check first. That's a mistake you only make once, I guess.

inVent: I used to think pockets on dresses were a bad idea
Wait, so @the_river said the pockets were DEEP enough for a phone AND keys? That can't be real. I've been tricked by so-called "pockets" before that barely fit a single coin. If that's true, it's not just a win, it's a total game changer. I need to know where that dress came from, honestly. My search for real pockets has been nothing but lies.
