So we can gripe on this board about it!! In Vanuatu, I always refered to what here we call Murphy's law-I call it the V-factor! Only in Vanuatu, it is 10 times worse!!!

I try not to quote Murphy's Law here, since it is such a popular name here and I don't want to cause offence, so I generally refer to it as the Law of maximum cussedness.

I was lucky enough to have about 6 inches of thread left on the bobbin after my last project. I was sooooo excited! LOL
