For starters it has been 40 - 48 degrees every day & even though I have lived up here for 30 odd (very odd) years it has started to get to me.
Then our office printer decided to carck it. So I can't print, scan, file or do any basic office work. I have almost 2 weeks of notes of all the stuff I have to file, print & scan once the new printer arrives.
Then some kids turned of our ice creamn display freezers, so throw away a couple of grand of ice cream which I can't replace as the last truck for 3 weeks had already left Mt Isa!
Monday morning at 3am the Roadhouse alarms went off, I drag myself out of bed, grab my touch & thongs & walk out the back door to be sprayed immediatly in the face with a chemical fire extingisher!! After choking, spluttering, falling down the stairs & dropping my tourch I finally got over to the Roadhouse (we live about 5 meters behind it) to find the rear door trashed & a hell of a mess. Took me about an hour to re-secure the place & by then I couldn't I couldn't get to sleep & I can still tast the extingisher.
To top all that of I was driving the forklift into the shed late yesterday to lock up when it blew a hydrolic hose!!
So, MERRY BLOODY CHRISTMAS & a Happy 2020!!
