This is not my real tape measure - mine has a yellow plastic casing and says 'PlaceMakers' (written as one word) on one side.
It also says, "Know how. Can do. 8m POWER TAPE."
I've had it for quite a long time. I've measured many things with it. My tape measure is totally metric - there are no inches or feet. Its label also tells us that it has a 25mm blade. The blade is actually a reinforced bit at the end that you can use to hang over things. It also has a clip so that you can hang it on your belt.
I thought Peter would enjoy this post. Really, it's up there with his coffee machine post. Okay, I must give it to him, he did add a bit of drama with The Old Girl liking a newer machine. Unfortunately, Shelley has no interest in tape measures. If I'd wanted to add drama, I would have had to lie to you.
I could have written something like, "Shelley bought a new tape measure the other day and uses it all the time. She says that I should replace mine. I asked her if she replaces her old friends. She said that I was a silly old man."
If you enjoyed this post, please leave a comment.
Ciao tutti.

Watch the grammar Rob. ("Can you tape measure tell me?") In the post I say that my tape measure is only in metric, but I can tell you that a metre is about 3 feet.
Would someone with club feet be half a foot?
Go for a walk in the yard.
Oh mammy.
Actually, the line went, "I'd walk a million miles for one of your smiles."
Mammy was very popular.
Then you're going to Hell. Lazy bastard!
"À chacun son goût" - I say.
No, my gout is under control.
Yes but how's your chacun?
A bit worn.
