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!!!

Good morning everyone.
I'll pass on that suggestion Dot..not far enough south..
I fixed the hoses so Carol can use the bore water for her gardens... country is drying out up here 😡.
Except for the herb garden thingy not much else went on
Over the back has given me a long length of C channel we are going to put a gate in between us... bloody thing didn't come with the hole 🕳️ to put it in 😡😮.
So we may do that today... maybe...
One of our new neighbours had the electricity people out on Friday to connect her home to the power grid...they forgot to bring the meter..so they didn't contact her... they should have... when we got our solar on we had free power for a week before they came out and put the new smart meter in...bad PR I thought by not connecting her to the grid...
And we are back to bacon and eggs day again...😁😁
Keep safe everyone.
Bernie.

Good morning everyone. Its a little bit foggy this morning, but it will be another top day, when the fog burns off. Did nothing much yesty. Watched the working dog competition, then walked up into town for a look around. Spent the arvo watching the footy, and had a yack with Jon.

The biggest issue with getting stuff from wholesalers is you gotta install them yourself. :lol:

Good morning All. 24* and 28* forecast.

We are sitting here with coffee and tea, putting up with a neighbour's barking dog. I haven't worked out what I am going to do today but, whatever I decide to do, it will probably wear me out by nightfall.

I have been working on some body repairs on the bus and am waiting for a fibreglass repairer to give me a quote to fix the damage that I caused quite some years ago. I sent him photos a week ago and yesterday he said he will come and give me a quote some time this week.

Enjoy what's left of the weekend All.

Got to Evans Head. Dave is here too.

Great road, some narrow, stunning valleys along the summersomething hwy.

Bernie, it's a long way for you to go for a week.

Heading down the coast for a few days and then across to Orange for the rally.

Did go through Lismore or C a s i n o Jon? Both a nice run, the trip down through Grafton to Dorrigo and down the Waterfall Way is definitely an eye opener, and probably a butt tightening exercise as your butt tries to keep hold of the seat coming down into some of those bends .......
Lunched a Kombi motor going down there, all too much for the brakes and the poor little 1800 must have spun up to 6,000rpm in a few spots .... pushed a circlip and wrist pin into the cyl wall on cylinder 3 and completely blocked out the sky behind us when we reached the bottom and tried to accelerate again .... it must have pumped a ltrs or two of oil into the muffler :shock:
It was a case of fill up the oil and check the fuel at every stop after that :roll:

Strange, the spaced out word is seen as a dirt word by the forum filters now :roll:
