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!!!

The second pic makes heaps more sense.
What does the trailer actually look like Bernie?

Good morning everyone.
Now my parcel arrived.. WRONG...
Would you believe the paperwork has. I got a email from the company I bought it from saying that the parcel will be delivered to Ag Traders in Biggenden, so after lunch...late lunch we had visitors...
I rang Ag traders.... they said they did see my name on the delivery sheet...so went looking 😡...no luck just the paperwork saying it's delivered...so another phone call to the company I bought it from 😡😡😡... still waiting for their response.
Un bloody believable...
That was yesterday gone..
Off to the big smoke today monthly shopping...
Keep safe.
And for you Dave.

Good morning everyone, its still dark here, but we are all awake. Bandit might get an early walk.
Terrie's dad was a bit better yesterday, maybe the antibiotics are doing some good. The physio got him up on his feet after we left, late in the arvo. First time in nearly a week that he's stood up.
Thanks for the pic Bernie. The name makes sense now.
Safe travels everybody, have a top day.
Cheers

I was planning on borrowing one just like that from the workshop next door to the yard ...... then I was told about the 2,000kg rule, the Lexus I'm going to pick up is 1890kg dry weight, the trailer will be a lot more than 110kg, you not only get a fine that would have paid for the trailer hire of one that was designed to carry the weight, you are stuck there on the side of the road or at the weigh station till you get a trailer that is legal to carry the vehicle .... then you have to organise to move the other trailer ...... It's not so bad if you have someone with you that can drive the vehicle that's on the trailer and it is driveable and registered, you just unload before each emu plate checking station and listen for where the truckies say the "mermaids" are ........ but if you are involved in an accident, even if it wasn't your fault, and the trailer was over the legal weight .... best buy up bulk on the "soap on a rope" and say goodbye to the house etc, you are not insured by either the blue slip 3rd party person insurance, nor any 3rd party property insurance ...... uncle was a private investigator attached to insurance claims ... against insurance companies ... he had many tales about people going from rich to bankrupt because something allowed the insurance company to get out of the claim ......

Morning all.

Got to Red Cliffs. Had a few spots planned but each turned out to be non-existant. Anyway, here for 2 nights.

Good one Jon. I hope the Bindi shoes that you made for Phoenix are an instant success.. I was just thinking of the first time Bandit got out of the Winny for a pee as we wandered around the Riverina a few years back. Two steps and he adopted the Karate kid pose. One front, one back hanging in mid-air. It's kinda funny now, but wasn't back then.
Anyway, you have a safe trip and enjoy the bash.
I wish we could have joined you, but that wasn't to be.
Cheers

Good morning everyone.
I forgot to mention that we had 10mm the night before...
Shopping done for another month.
Got a phone call from the company, said delivery was finally at Ag traders in Biggenden, so after emptying all the grocerys I jumped in to the ute and now I have said delivery at home... picture will let everyone know what the delivery was... now the hard work begins.
But not today...I have to go and pick up 200+ bricks 🧱.
Keep safe everyone.
Bernie.

Morning all.

Bit of a frost this morning.

Had a bit of a lucky escape yesterday. An on coming semi flicked up a flat piece of steel or plastic which hit the grill.

Between the headlight and the radiator/intercooler. And in line it me. Lucky eh!! Left a cut mark on the second bottom rail.
