I tell you what, that is a great shirt ! A similar story to yours but I now keep any bit of old clothing that looks newish- like I haven't worn it for years ( for the same reason as yours , or maybe I keep that shirt for special shed occasions when my mates come over for a beer) actually in my...

Interesting. Did you look at what was left in the bottom of the can that was used? I only ask as I just recently opened a 35 year old (plastic) pail of green fence "paint",not sure if you have this stuff in your part of the world but it is like a green limewash for want of a better description ...

Oh… nice ! Yeh I wouldn’t have held back for a millisecond in your shoes . Too funny 🤣

What a great and interesting update ! I'm trying to work out the difference between your experience and mine with weed control. I guess I came into the scenario well after the cattle were gone , dealing with -minimally- waist high growth over 50 acres and there was no "bare earth". It was...

Similar idea to yours but I think it is faster and you don't need to get down so low- I place a torch on the floor and move the beam around like a lighthouse beam, even a tiny eyeglasses screw will throw a long shadow- (so you will also find stuff you didn't even know you'd lost) as well as the...

That all makes sense ! I think everyone has their own unique approach to projects. For example , when I work on my cars I allow myself to make up the difference in what I saved doing it myself and what it would have cost otherwise, in new ( or new to me) tools especially if it makes whatever...

Firstly- nice projects, and they look great ! That is an interesting rule that you have set for yourself and I do agree - at least for me- I have to control my enjoyment of perfection - especially if a) it is unachievable or b) it is not in any way, shape or form ( even if you squint) relevant...

Well, after spending 5 years being responsible for 50 acres of paddock maintenance after the cattle were sold off and my in-laws were too frail to take care of the property, (leaving just the wombats, red belly black snakes and rock wallabies) , I would love to know the theory behind "regular...

I think I get what you are saying ? Like, you do stuff for people out of the goodness of your heart , for FREE , sometimes it is VERY time intensive, you might use a lot of your consumables ( welding rods , nails, screws, sandpaper etc) and it is either : 1) not acknowledged with even a "thank...

Watching your YouTube Chanel. Don’t you just love the English language? “ Buying an abandoned Skoda Felicia Cube after 10 years in storage “ Jeez mate bet you had to do few stretches after being in storage for so long ! 😉🤣 If I was any funnier someone might actually laugh !!! Seriously though...

Well, what can I say ? "Enjoy your new car you'll love it to... err.... in ? ... pieces " ! Mate , just another small for Grizz project, it will be super mint in a short while !!!!!! :) :thumbup:

On the other hand there is a certain philosophy I am , truth be told , oftentimes guilty of : "too much is never enough" add to this : "You only live once" .... and therein lies the problem. The problem is : Is there actually a problem ? 🤷 :) I'll let you guys know when I know the answer to...

So, if you had a Holden at that time , and someone had randomly crashed a plane into it whilst it was parked in your driveway , methinks you have found the culprit ?

Good eye for detail there ! However , as most kids are taught at school from an early age , the best way to disorientate a Drop Bear is to stick a finger in its ear. Note the handler has complete control of the situation. But you're - literally - dead right , this technique is not 100% effective...

oh man , that is so quick witted and so absolutely beyond funny. Concise wit. Brilliant ! (Are you certain you weren't a comedian before retirement ? ) Note to self : don't mess with Geoff .

Yeh, I totally agree. I REALLY, REALLY love my Wave -its by far my favourite Leatherman -but if it's anywhere other than in a drawer in my shed , it is in my toolbox or more likely- tool belt. For me , I've worked out that the most useful thing to have in my shirt pocket is a small pair of...

Wow Lyndon , looks like a good find !

I think the really important question here Geoff, and I'm sure I am not the only one here begging to know the answer: If a plane did indeed crash in your driveway , taking out a Holden, would you be able to draw the time of impact on a clock face ?

Oh, my bad I thought you must have aced all those cognitive tests ! You know, man , woman, camera.... Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)

Not a lot of PT cruisers anymore around my neck of the woods, but I do indeed still like the look of them !
