      • That trying to carry a dozen coppers logs on the roof bars of your Pajero is guaranteed to fail. Actually, I think we all knew that. Bloke pulled out of the Bunnings in Maddington today, got to the first corner before the rails broke spilling the lot down the driver's side of the car and onto the busy road-way. He wasn't popular with the other road users and certainly didn't appear to be too popular with his distraught missus in the passenger seat.

          4 big ones worked O.K. for me, as for a dozen, obviously not. You just have to guess the right amount !

                  Then why are they installed, do I need a reverse letter sign that says "Horn not working, watch for middle finger?"

                  Though, as instructed by my tour coach instructor "Just use your size to intimidate the idiots out there, they'll soon work it out."

                    • That a trip to the Gold coast can be very expensive once the missis finds out the real reason for the trip...to pick up a set of roller draws

                      Accom at Q1 - $370
                      Breakfast for two - $120
                      Shopping trip to Robina Shops and Marina Mirage - Who knows yet but DONT ASK!

                      Picking up a set of roller draws - Priceless (plus the agreed price, but still priceless)

                        Upgrading my 60T slewer ticket to an open class, taken some time to step up but its due.

                        Hey my brother in Perth fixes those cranes. He often flys up to the mines to work on them or drives the new ones up to deliver them. He works for the Grove agent in Perth.
