Well that was an unfortunate twist, Tom. What's passed is past, but sorry for your loss of Reliable Inch-Pounds - RIP :(

Or Newton-Metres for that matter.

I'm sorry too!

Mine is from a TV production called “The Julekalender” featuring some goblins singing in distorted english.
It contains 24 episodes and was/is quite popular in Denmark. Norway made their own cover version of it.

Hi! Nice pick :)
Also here in Finland we have our own cover version "The Joulukalenteri" and It's still very popular here also

Great info Errol! I did not know about Finland having made a cover version too. :-)

It seems like the Nissemand guys might have listened to this previous to their recording. Is this song for 2020 or 2021?

I think you are on to something ThomasOK. At least I think that they got inspired by Bobby and his song.

By mistake I erased my first clip in the opening post starting this thread. I have now replaced it with a new one.

Wow, Tom, I bet you'll be glad to see the back of 2020! FYI, I contacted Sturtevant to see how much it would cost to calibrate my CAL 36 (note, no "/4" - this is the rare collectors item with no Nm engraving). They said $65 for basic calibration plus any repairs needed, so I'm guessing it would have come to over $100. I compared it to my fixed 30 in.lb torque wrench and it came out pretty close, so I passed on the SR offer. But they can probably fix your broken innards (the wrench, not the kidney stones!) and you'd get a nice, new, clean plastic lens.
