Did you keep the wood Dot. It has another 5 times it can warm you up yet. Cut, split, stack, burn and then cart out the ashes.

English... the language.
No English dictionary has been able to adequately explain the difference between these two words.
In a recent linguistic competition held in London and attended by, supposedly, the best in the world, Samdar Balgobin, a Guyanese man, was the clear winner with a standing ovation which lasted over 5 minutes.
The final question was: How do you explain the difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED in a way that is easy to understand?
Some people say there is no difference between COMPLETE and FINISHED.
Here is his astute answer:
When you marry the right woman, you are COMPLETE.
When you marry the wrong woman, you are FINISHED, and when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are COMPLETELY FINISHED!!!

Control Tower received a call from an air crew asking...
"What time is it please?"
Tower responded, "Who is calling?"
The crew replied, "What difference does it make?"
Tower replied, "It makes a lot of difference.
If it is an American Airlines flight, it is 3 o'clock.
If it is a Marine Corps aircraft, it is 1500 hours.
If it is a Navy aircraft, it is 6 bells.
If it is an Army aircraft, the big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 3.
If it is an Air Force plane, it's Thursday afternoon and 120 minutes to "Happy Hour".

You are right Chuck it is the old fellas birthday, thanks for bring that to our notice. Hope the court date goes to plan as well. We have been over to Mannum this arvo to take Ann Phil & Miss Mia to meet Terry and to catch up with Wendy & Bruce then it was off to the Mannum club for the evening meal and a couple of drinks, back to the love boat for some pudding and then it was time to drop A,P & T back to the workshop and G and myself headed for home. As usual a pleasant day with great forum friends. Safe travels to Ann & Phil on your way home and congrats on the purchase of your new home here in SAChuck wrote:Think it was Keith/Tanks birthday yesterday - so if it was mate hope you had a bloody good day & your belated birthday present may well be a victory in the courthouse.
