ciggy paper wrapped around No8 gauge fencing wire & no more probs Bernie!
Hands up who has ever used the shiny alu paper out of a packet of smokes?
Then they invented those damn new European type fuses ....................

Re: Good morning daily
Geez Bruce, you're bringing back some memories there. Most young blokes wouldn't even know what No 8 wire was.
And ciggie paper?
who still smokes.
But all us old farts know what you mean.

Yes he is George, he's retired. Tally ho and all that. 8 gauge good car antennas and sliding down a shut window. 

Queen of the Banal & OT chatter and proud of it. If it offends you then tough titty titty bang bang.

Good morning.
Yep my second car came with ciggie paper around one of the fuses
I thought it must have been from the factory
1956 Worseley 444.
Still looking for that elusive fuse box, not given up yet...especially because I remember seeing it a little while ago
Carol's bingo has finished for the year...there goes my Monday freedom
Over the back has just bought a vintage motorbike He picks it up from Brissy tomorrow...I will go for a sticky beak Thursday.
Windy and overcast but no rain...looks much the same for today. Temps down didn't even turn the aircon on yesterday.
The other thing to do is find away to get the TV cable inside the motorhome...another challenge.
Keep safe.
Bernie.

Re: Good morning daily
Good morning everyone, from the Strathbogie Ranges. It was hot and humid yesty then cooled off a bit later in the day. You can tell that Victoria is broke, all the regional roads that I have travelled on are in serious need of repair.
Not much else to report. Have a top day everybody, safe travels.

Re: Good morning daily
Good morning, 24c off to bowls today, hope I remember how to play
27c predicted.
We’re having our roof repaired, after the hail storm in May, should finish it today, we’re having the tiles repainted too, it’s looking good.

Re: Good morning daily
Evening all. 0900 and the boys turned up along with the much stuff, they got all their bits and bobs unloaded and then the heavens opened up, along with thunder, & lightning but they just kept on barrowing the stuff over the garden. 3 hrs later they had finished and cleaned up and gone. Well done boys 20 deg @2045.

Good morning.
Lazy day yesterday I did mow the small garden area...someone was wingin
about it.
Still haven't come across the missing fuse block, BUT I did find stuff I wasn't looking for
I'm running out of spots to look.
Nothing planned for today as yet...Temps still in and above the mid 30s.
Keep safe out there.
Bernie.

Good morning All, again.
I endeavored to post a, longer than usual post, earlier but it was interrupted by the dreaded PHP message. Unfortunately, I did not have a copy so I have given up on it. Hoping this post makes it.
