@nitinkhanna It was so too & now it's Friday.
Almost headbutted the edge of the bed. Stumbled on a poorly placed shoe in the dark - my supposedly good knee has been playing up lately & it's adversly affecting my hip by having to apply a compensatory gait.
We'd somehow managed to lose the instruction manual for the old table saw, it had been stored in a plastic sleeve with the machine but managed to vanish anyway. So I instigated a frantic internet search for a copy and found one for an almost identical saw by the same maker. It was a 15 page PDF with full colour photos, much more comprehensive than the missing one. Printed it out & handed it to the man just before he left.
Our Men's Shed group has been trying to sell a lightly-used tradesman-quality table saw for several months now. We had what we considered an insulting offer from the other Shed in the same town. Insulting in that they're in a financial position to easily afford new kit like the SawStop we worked so hard to afford.
Then we learned of another Shed group being set up about 45 minutes away by road. They're starting with nothing. One of their fellows came today to take the saw & a bunch of donated screwdrivers away. We we happy to see the thing gone, it was taking up space and while we only got paid half the other Shed's insulting offer, it's in the cause of helping another group get off the ground from scratch.
@phoneboy The earlier Yaris airbag recall was related to potential moisture ingress into the triggering mechanism for the passenger-side airbag. No incidences occurred in Australia, it was just a precaution.

@matigo A month or so ago I took a funny turn at the Men's Shed & was ambulanced off to hospital for tests & observation. There's an emergency call button in the Shed that's supposed to notify emergency services. Except when, about 5 years ago, the venue (a retirement village) went fully digitally monitored interstate this circuit was left to do nothing except ring a single phone in an unmanned plant room. No-one knew the phone was ringing. Normally I'd have called on my iPhone but I was the victim in this case & somewhat out of it.
