    All good.

    They also did a heaps of pubs in the day, when temprites became the go, and used Kelvinator gear exclusively.
    Built their own inserts for the cold rooms, built commercial chest freezers and all sorts of gear.

    Kelvinator also made heaps of bits and pieces for Holden,bumpers,radiator fans,etc,in the late 60's and in the '70's.

    BP became a successful large concern with offices all over the Islands & Pacific. A name synonymous with Misc Trading & Shipping. & probably much more.


    But you knew that didn't you?

    Half an hour? Must have been a Matchbox on fire. Eevo would have had that out in 5 minutes by ****ing on it & he dribbles.



    Why did I know that coffee would come into this?

    I feel your pain

    The other night they rang at 3.30am from the city watch house, wanting someone to come and investigate a mouldy smell coming from the AC.
    FFS.
    I politely told them to F off.
    Apparently the contractor that usually does the work couldn't be contacted.

    I wonder if they'd have called at that time, if they were paying the bill.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Exactly,that is the issue, at times, doing Govt work.
    On the plus side, there is no problem worrying if payment for the job will ever arrive, which is a huge issue with some other customers.
