У меня опять пропала фреза. Опять та маленькая. Все на месте около дезинфектопа, а фрезы нет. Устала немного от этого. Хоть замок вешай. И ручка от лезвия, где она может лежать, мне вчера сказали, что была одна новая.
Cпасибо!

May as well hang a lock on it
May as well hang a lock on it for all purposes.
