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!!!

Morning Bernie from a damp port macquarie tipped little over 91//2 inches out of the gauge on Tuesday ( 10 in gauge)
Nearly 6 in yesty and it's still raining. I can't remember seeing rain like this.

Good morning everyone. Another bright sunny day here.
Didn't achieve much yesty except a bit of yard work. I'm hoping that the big east coast rain band moves further south today and makes it over the divide into central Vic. It's dry as a chip down there.
Haven't seen today's agenda yet, but I'm sure there's something on it.
Safe travels everybody.
Cheers
David

Morning all.

Bit of tidying up today, cleaning threads, surfaces and the like. That's if I feel like it.
Terry, the sleeves are only 1mm thick. And the engine is a 6BG1.

Yep,..... but, that's what 2000 years of translation does. Unihorn n - Single horned animal. not unicorn. Next thing, some bright spark will be putting an apostrophe in there.

Rumour has is, the Noah's unihorns were from different sides of the river. And when they mated there was a DNA throw back in the herd. One ended up grey, fat, short and ugly. But, as nature has it, turned out to be the strongest of the pretty herd. He took 7 mates and over time the pretty little unihorns morphed into the throw back. And today, we know them as Rhinoceros. Still fat, short and just a little bit ugly.

Crickeys it was cold this morning ..... We ran off the inverter last night, the mains was dedicated to charging the MG ready for Margaret's trip to Flinders Hospital today .....

Turns out, the air con isn't wired into the inverter output, only wired to the mains input ..... Fitting the diesel heater has been moved up quite few steps now :lol:

Does this mean the 7MW inverter is redundant?

You'd need pretty fat wires to run that wouldn't you? And a big ol' battery to feed it too. Or is that a typo.
