    Ross was surprised too, and the option of putting more in has been discussed.

    I can't help it if you don't operate a night shift

    When things go wrong as they sometimes will,
    When the road your trudging seems all uphill,
    When the funds are low and the debts are high,
    And you want to smile but you have to sigh,
    When care is pressing you down a bit
    Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
    Success is failure turned inside out,
    The silver tint on the clouds of doubt,
    And you can never tell how close you are,
    It may be near when it seems afar.
    So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
    It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit.

    And who'd have thought they were so clever.... they'd even built a dam in the hull, under the fuel tank, to trap the fresh water!

    You're welcome anytime, but be warned, beer o'clock varies from day to day, often long before knock off time # knock off time is only at 5 when he knows Kingtin is visiting #

    That's it Kev, I think I will have to ban you from visiting for awhile # > #

    I'm feeling your pain
    You've been there, done that... and more than once from what I understand.... so please don't feel our pain as well. Just be joyful that yours is nearly ready to go back in the water #

    you can get blue disposable overalls, they breath and you dont get any where near as hot, probable 2 the price but at the end of the dat they are worth it
    We had already bought some white ones, then saw the blue elsewhere at 4 x the price # so Ross says he will perservere with the white.

    There will be no Report today as it has gone 4:30 and Ross has just gone down to do some grinding now. The day has slipped away from us, first there was bible study with Kev.... browsing the Whitworths catalogue # then brunch on the back deck.... a visit to the fibreglasser to keep him sweet & hand over some $$'s for the needed supplies.... our shed vacuum had died recently so we popped into the in-laws to pick up their old Sadie (remember them, looked like a paint tin on wheels) and Ross got roped into mowing their lawn for them... so it will be a late one tonight #

    2 months! I keep telling him, blaze did it in 2 months... he told me "NO WAY, don't hold your breath waiting" #

    I have never understood why women love cats. Cats are independent, they don't listen, they don't come in when you call, they like to stay out all night, and when they're home they like to be left alone and sleep. In other words, every quality that women hate in a man, they love in a cat.

    Goodoh! Carpentry? Mmmmmmmm? Let me think? Well a certain chap was a carpenter, and the deckie is always telling me that I think I'm God, so I suppose I might be able to whittle a bit of wood.
