Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Not a true tomato sauce, what we use for pasta and any of my camp cooking requiring a tomato sauce base. Just pure reduced tomato's and any spices and flavours added while cooking. Cheers Robert

... yes, someone didn't think of the obvious places water could enter before they built the levee, then dug it up, then laid it again with different clay type dirt on the base and the 2 mtr tall dirt bags inside the wire frame things .... they even put plastic on the river side to help prevent the water soaking through ...... but they didn't think to plug the gutter drains :roll:
Too late to dig it up again, the water is already at road height ...... the road was closed again today, I wonder what genius idea they'll have this time .... and who will get there butt kicked for making such an obvious error :roll:

I'm surprised that nobody who was in a position of responsibility didn't foresee this, especially after the second flooding of Lismore occurred, due to the faulty drain valve.

It's probably being overseen by someone in council, and we all know they don't adhere to the philosophy of learning from others errors or that these things happen to other people, not to any project they are involved in .... doing things the same way but expecting a different result is common in all levels of govt, so it's highly unlikely to change at council level eh :roll: :lol:

After the trip to Brian's houseboat, returned to the workshop, hooked up the small trailer to the Prius so Margaret and Brian could travel back to our house to pick up the sliding fly screen doors and take them to someone to add that wanna be security grill and stronger fly screen so people might at least see them now and not walk through them :lol:

I'm in the middle of building a new BMS for Brian's boat battery to control the charging upper limits and set off a fire alarm beeper thing if a cell gets pulled to low to warn him to ease off on the throttle till he recharges the battery. Figured it was better to set off the alarm rather than just isolate the battery, it could make the trip in the dingy interesting in the wind if the motor just stopped :shock:
