    one of those days you should have stayed in bed

    one of those days that start off bad and you think why did I get out of bed?
    got into the disco this morning and flutter flutter flutter, didn't sound good on the exhaust.
    Run it up on ramps to have a squiz whilst it was idling and could see water ( condensation leaking out from the from the front pipe to muffler weld, also rear flange seal was weeping, and on top of the muffler was squirting condensation out like a sprinkler. So Got inside the house and check inventory and no stock, so rang a local muffler place and they could get one in that arvo aftermarket. A bit disappointed that only a cheap grade stainless steel is used by land rover and it has sprung leaks all over the place. I towed a 2 tonne plus boat on thursday so may be that was the final straw.

    so I get back into the D2 and head off to the exhaust shop, on the way I could smell a strong odour of Dog Turd in the cabin, I was STRONG!!!!
    I had to get some fuel and pulled into servo to discover a massive fresh turd on my leather runners soles, so using a tonne of servo paper I cleaned my shoe, and to my horror the Drivers side carpet was full of squashed dog turd, oh my GRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!! AND WHEN I GOT HOME I found I had walked it all the way through the house, it was every where.

    I don't one a dog but some dirty bastard of a dog has come up my gravel driveway and left his business somewhere between the front door and my disco driver's door.
    I should have stayed in bed today me thinks

    Dogs are creatures of habit, so watch out tomorrow. If he comes back you can track him home, collect several specimens, wrap in newspaper and leave it on the doorstep.Set fire to the parcel and ring the bell before leaving. If you dont do it at least you got a smile!!

    The dog owner leaves something on your lawn, only fair you return the kind gesture with an item of your own choice...
    Like a bear trap...
    Or a land mine...
    The possibilities are endless

    Is it morning again so soon?
    Well it must be as my alarms shrieking
    I wish that I could stay warm in bed til noon
    When the warmth round the corner is peeking

    So out of bed myself I drag,
    To a cold and foggy dawn
    And I stumble half asleep with bag
    Across the frosted lawn

    But near the drive my smile renews
    It’s happy, broad and bright
    Coz in the drive is my D2
    And all the world’s alright!

    I walk up past the glistening beast
    And tap her behind as I pass
    I must admit I love this car
    It oozes with such class

    I jump inside and smiling broad
    I start her nice and quick
    Whats that noise? Oh my gawd!
    The bastards got a tick!

    My anger swells My sadness builds
    As I pull into the gutter
    As I sit there staring at a field,
    I hear it’s not a tick, it’s much more like a flutter..

    I run the D2 up the ramp
    And underneath I go- (I should’ve stayed in bed sleeping!)
    Everywhere I look under here its damp
    everywhere under here it’s seeping

    It seems the exhaust has broken up,
    Towing the boat was the final straw
    And parts will arrive late tonight...
    Well the original parts were quite poor..

    So back in the Disco I put my tush
    I close the door and put it in gear
    As the accelerator I push
    Whats that smell? Ohhh dear!

    I stop to put in fuel about there
    And slowly on me it hits like a swell
    A poo from a dog the size of a bear
    On my shoe was the cause of the smell!

    I tried to use some tissues, some paper, a rock
    I tried to drag it off on grass
    But somehow it had a great tight lock
    That dog must have a smelly arse!

    Im sure I looked a little strange
    As I pirouetted, spun and twisted
    But anyone that came with smells range
    Their nose, it dead set blistered!

    I finally got my ‘boaters’ clean
    The smell I hope will subside
    It stinks in here what does that mean?
    Oh my gawd it is all spread inside!!

    I gagged, I coughed, I felt real sick
    As the do do it seemed to be growing
    The smell and texture was real thick
    the turd I would swear it was glowing!..

    I don’t have a dog at home
    My yard should be dog do do free
    But some bastards let their dog free roam
    And the victim of ‘dog mines’ was me!

    But its OK, it’s over and I’m back now with my spouse
    At least I can see my smiling wife.....
    My gawd shes mad, (seems I tracked do do through the house!)
    Oh I am in all sorts of strife

    So now I wait I hope to catch him
    That dog whilst in mid dropping
    For if I do I swear I’ll push it all back in!
    both his eyes will be popping!

    I wish I had just stayed in bed
    Blissfully, happily sleeping
    Some days from the pillow you shouldn’t lift your head
    You never know where the next turd is creeping.
