I figured this thread was good a place as any.
I went to Bunnings today for a couple of bolts.
I try not to go there normally as they are a bit on the expensive side, but I was already driving past and only needed a couple.
Well, they hardly have any Imperial bolts at all.
The Zenith range of zinc hex head bolts and coach bolts they carried (and not too long ago), has all gone metric.
Went over to Mitre 10 and they weren't much better.
Ended up having to go across town to the nut and bolt shop. Casually mentioned to old matey about the change in the hardware stores.
He said although they still keep UNC and some Whitworth, they don't keep BSF and can't order BSF from their supplier any more.
I said "I bought some BSF off you not long ago"?
And he said, "someone from the Land Rover club came in and made an a offer on all our BSF stock and the boss sold it all to them".
