[Wishfull]

My Oztrail deck chair lasted 2 sittings before the left hand strut tore through the arm rest. No I can't find the receipt. Not happy Jan.

I think I've been misled... My to-do list prepared by Mrs Mrs M had a rock garden for the front yard.



Why is then that the first of the rocks landed in the backyard?
The answer "These are too small. I want big ones out the front"

totally emphasise, my wife said she only likes big rocks. the little ones are plentiful here but these took a lot of work to find and get into the ute

Great job, you've got a lot more energy than I have but I do have rocks...

I picked up a nice sized cylinder today.



It's about the size of a 9kg LPG cylinder but lighter. Perfect for one of my little projects.



It's flaming hot so I'm hoping this will do the trick.

Hmmm... got me thinkin'!

Hmmm... got me thinkin'!

Should we be worried?

Furnace

Furnace

Yes that's the plan. Mrs M bought me the ingredients last year and I recently bought the gauge and hose the connect to the LPG bottle. I don't really have much use for a furnace because I usually just melt the small quantities of gold into a button with the oxy set but I'm sure everybody needs one

I'm sure you and Sandra will find other uses for it other than melting gold. You could make your own knife, heat to form and bend, put it this way you'll be better off with it than wishing you had one

On Australia Day we joined the crowds at the sports oval for a free burger and coke while watching the fabulous 15 minutes of fireworks.



It was a bit harsh on the ears but the best fireworks we've seen here and it was good social occasion with some rarely people coming in from outlying areas.



Now I'm suffering the consequences although I'm not really sick. I had a crook neck and a bit of a headache on Monday that cleared up in the evening after an asprin with coffee and a half a dozen lollies. Yesterday wasn't too bad but still the clicky neck gave me reason to take the test.

The results can be seen on the iPhone health app where it shows my daily activity and how it dropped off over the last few days. I'm just lacking the drive to get out there and then when I do I don't feel like doing much but I guess it'll soon pass.

Hope you have a quick recovery mate and I hope its not passed onto Sandra. We still wear our masks in Supermarkets etc, and you can't get into the hospitals or doctors without wearing one. a good thing I believe. Cheers Mackka

I think the main problem is that the average person has become soft, an easy target for the bugs to beat us down. We live in a sterile environment most of the time so we don't have the natural resistance to these things.

We're a bit different here with the dirt, dust and harsh weather conditions but we don't mix with many people so that make us more vulnerable when we have close contact with a crowd.

The wearing of masks has run its course here. We rarely see anybody wearing one and now that I've tested positive I'll just keep my distance from others and that's just going to be a normal day anyway

 

[Moneybox]

Ok, crisis is over..... Mrs M says my reading is negative

Well I never was very good at reading anyway. I'm feeling better now, I'm off to work

 

[Northeast]

Mrs M says my reading is negative

I did wonder if the picture above was of the 'positive' test.

C means Control which just says it has enough fluid and the test should work properly.

T is the test - if there is nothing then your not positive. Any faint line means positive.

Glad you're not positive MB and you can get some more jobs done for Mrs M

 

[Mackka]

Thanks for explaining Northeast as I had no idea. Mackka

Obviously I had no idea as well

The truth is out.... I've been poisoned, well negatively poisoned actually and by Mrs M

Mrs M decided to quietly convert me to Caffeine Free tea. I've been feeling off colour for days. Here I am suffering a stress related clicking neck and headache that disappeared as soon as I had an asprin, a coffee (real coffee) and a few lollies. Then the following day I was suffering from the same. Again the coffee and asprin gave me relief but it wasn't until today that I noticed the different tags on the teabags.

I've been suffering withdrawal symptoms from a lifelong addition to tea....

I'll take a good cup of tea over coffee every day of the week, hard to beat/find a good brew of tea. Can't for the life of me work out why someone would corrupt a good brew too woke for me. In ten years you might see the label changed to the good old days
