    Getting let off a parking fine! I was working at a school frantically trying to help a landscaper get the pump going on the irrigation system after they laid 2500m of turf yesterday. Where I had parked turned into no parking at 2.30 and at 2.40 the ranger waved us over and the landscaper apologised and said we are almost done. The ranger just waited and told us we are lucky because other rangers may not have been so understanding, and that because it is a school zone it is $248 and three demerit points. Lucky!

    Makes me happy when the wife decides to cancel her hair appointment to come and help me. She was a great help and got what we had to get done in super fast time.
    I think the fact that she is going out tomorrow for a long lunch with her girlfriends whilst I look after the kids may have had something to do with her decision to help!
    Either way was a good day...

    so who's email were you hacking seriously though congratulations well done just goes to show your nearly as smart as you are pretty
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you
