    Just got back from a tip run. It's good when the put the casual on the weekend. Won't mention the tip but here goes

    Got charged for 2 cubes and had at least 6 cubes my rough measurement. I know the trailer including front mower deck full with wool bales holds 7.5 cubes and she was only about 30cm under the top. All tied down in layers so was quite compact.

    Saved at least $100 compared to what "boss lady' would have charged me

    I've had a few good luck stories the last few days, just when I need all the luck I can get.

    Sunday, I got home and the electric window on the ute wouldn't wind up. Cursed Toyota repeatedly. Got in it next morning and it worked perfectly again.
    Today, I was pouring paint into a roller tray. Just when the tray was full, my phone fell out of my pocket. Bounced off the rim of the tray and onto the concrete floor. phew, that could have been ugly.
    Grabbed it later and it's dead. Almost resigned to having to go home a day early to get another phone, I decided to pull the back off it and have a look.(as if I'd know what I was looking at) Put the battery back in and it cranked up again as good as new.

    Nice redeye, but you shouldn't park your front wheels on customers lawns like that:-) Also how many times have you hit that letter box? I notice you have your little mower loaded exactly where I put mine, just behind the tool box. BTW what sort of mower is that little one? Just put in a quote for a small lawn where I need to either carry a mower in or use a whipper snipper. Whipper snipper will be first option.

    I gathered it was your place, tongue in cheek and a little bit jealous mate. Don't think I've ever been to Jervis Bay that I can remember even though I live in the same state. Just bought a hard floor cub camper so planning on doing a bit more camping at van parks up and down the south coast.

    Seeing Skid Row and Ugly Kid Joe play at the Palace in Melbourne, grew back my mullet and dusted off the flannel and had a great time. Both bands were in fine form.
