Every now and again I have to demote a pair of jeans to gardening/painting/workshop duty. I see it as a useful and productive end of their service life after they've taken me to work and social events for what may be a number of years.
This week I've made a much more rash and serious demotion. I'm running in a rebuilt engine in my sports car and it demands an oil change at 60miles, 500miles and 1000miles. I'm trying to do it all as quickly as I can and putting the car on stands to drain the oil is a time consuming chore. As such I wanted a drip tray that fits under the sump. I have demoted a roasting tin that I've been using happily for about 25 years, it has built up a good non-stick seasoning, and is the only thing I have big enough to roast a big fowl or a decent joint.
Its very convenient, but I bet I'll regret it come Christmas.
