Grumpy old buggers thread

It's not that I don't trust you or anything Scarry, it's just the accountability thing that's a problem.
And I would not want to take up your valuable time, though I do have some fridge issues at the moment.
Maybe we could do a deal? Though you should probably pay me for helping you come to Exotic Down Town Doomadgee.

Strewth Scary, there's an opportunity you can't turn down.
The Pauls seem to stick together.

I like your thinking.

Jus waiting for a PM

You'll probably find most of them are busy at this point in time.

Yes,all Paul’s surprisingly are top blokes

Anyway I am sure we could jump through some hoops and sort out the accountability issues.Make them disappear.

As for the fridge issues,I could do the usual,that is fumble around and look like I know what I am doing.

Oh,and I have heard living in Doomadgee is a bit like living the dream

Dream? Nightmare!
Same sort of thing I guess.

Are you implying that is what you normally do, only you charge the client a few hundred smackeroos for the privilege of having you on site?


If it works for thee, why not Brother?

Reminds me of the olde Beer Temperature Test. Sit one's thermometer in a pint, pull it out, look pensively at it, shake your head & pull another one. Finish supping the first one before pulling a 2nd. ( you can't waste good beer can you?)
When you reach the end of the Publican's tolerance of you drinking all his profits, then it is time to nod one's head in agreement with the Thermometer just as Mine Host is about ready to burst a blood vessel.


Imagination? Don't think so.

"She's ok now, Mate" you say, hurriedly packing your tools & scooting out of the Batwings before he can blow his top.


Happy days.

Count me in !

On a couple of occasions I helped the self flown fridgie at Docker River, that was 1981, and I don’t suppose anything in refrigeration has changed 😎

[4bee]

It has actually. No Temprites, just those fancy Icey pole things dispensing all sorts of stuff.

[V8Ian]

Well if nothing else, Jonesfam, you'll be able to use this thread as a haggling tool, with your current fridgie.
No shortage of volunteers, I wonder if they'd be so keen if it was a cabbage packing shed in Gatton, with no cash.

[4bee]

It would depend on the Cabbage type. Slang for paper money or the type that babies are found under?
