The Life and Times of Me

Yesterday, me and me mum finally got round to working out how big the pond was and how much linner we would need to replace the existing one. We calculated 5m by 5m. We arrived at the garden centre, they only sold it in feet. That was ok we could go from there, so the largest width was 20ft we would have that and we thought that we would go for a square peice (so I wouldn't get confused). So we asked for a peice 20ft by 20ft. They went away, cut the stuff, came back with it and charged us £196 for it... with was correct for a piece 20ft by 20ft. When we got home we thought we would check the size of it, considering the price we had paid for it. We unrolled it. It was 20ft across. Length ways however they seemed not to know how to use a tape measure, they had given us 7m worth, which even with my rubbish conversion from metric to imperial I know is somewhat bigger than 20ft. So I now have loads of linner. Do you think my dad will notice if the pond gets bigger?
