Same same same

And bloody Bunnings. Bought a new ensuite light on the weekend, I reckon this is the 4th time in a row that when I got my purchase home from these gooseberries and opened it, some pillock had already had their grubby little hands on it, :censored: couldn't work out that brown, blue and green was active, neutral and earth, packed it up, broke the polystyrene packaging it back up again (passion fingers) :mad: and returned it, only to have some sniveling glorified coles shelf packer re-seal the box and put it back on display for some other poor sucker (me). Luckily i rebuild old Landies, so I could sort it out so you couldn't tell anything was wrong once mounted.

When I was a kid, we had to get up to change the channel on the TV and then you were the aerial until the horizontal hold came good.

Not as old as you, but I'm catching up as fast as I can.

Then if I turn on the radio every song on sounds like the previous. I thought we were living in a consumers paradise and all our retail outlets had the goods we want. End of spleen venting !

What sort of fish are you after & how many hanging thingos do you need?

Fray Bentos pie in a tin. That cures what ails you.

You missed nothing Dave, be very grateful.

I was just reading the ingredients list. Sounds......appetising.

I went to a bike shop yesterday to purchase some pedals and saddles advertised on the national website. They didn't have them in stock and when they quoted the price they were $20 dearer on special than the website.

I was then told I needed to understand they had only rebadged on the 1st June and it would take time to get all of the stock in after they had sold their existing stock. Fair enough but there was nothing on the website that the Perth store was new and no signage on the building either.

Back to Wiggle and Chain Reaction and listening to local businesses complaining about the internet killing off their business. :angel:

At least if they use Aus. Post you will be keeping some money local with the new pricing and delivery system.

Yes but it will probably take forever at the speed they operate :p
