I ordered some new bits and bobs and they arrived today, but the most important thing I got wrong.

I have always used a 12" squeegee as that's what i'm used to...
However, I didn't know it was 12", and always thought it was 10".
So now now my nice new brass Ettore squeegee arrives, and it's a piddly little thing.

I could almost squeegee the cat-flap with it. :

Anyone else made stupid mistakes and ended up with something hopeless?
