Bastards seem to drop everything at a Local PO 5km away where you have to go & collect it personally. WTF!

Thing is, they don't always advise you of this & you wait & wait & wait until you start to chase it up. They then come up with some ridiculous excuses based on the Driver's opinion. eg. Our Driveway leads down a well graded & gradual slope which many assorted vehicles have negotiated over the years from huge Semis to motor bikes. No dramas.

Suddenly the lazy bastard of a driver reports that it is "Dangerous &/ or inaccessible " probably because he needs to drive past a couple of Gum trees & thinks he is in the Outback & it isn't bituminised & he feels Isolated & lonely, when we are, 10km from the city centre.

Startrak,

you stink.

AP used to run a fleet of Looselybuilts.

Now they have Volvo girls trucks. One of the Aulro gearjammers was driving one for a while.

Is that thing what is called a 22 wheeler, Ian?

That could have got down my road, remembering it was constructed for the olde timers to take the horses & wagons to market & they had to climb out fully loaded.

Like I said Startrak you are on the nose. Like a little Starfish crack.

Speaking of Western, Rockingham is the only suburb where the girls have a higher sperm count than the boys.

Mario, is there any chance I could get a parcel before Christmas morning for a part that I won’t need for 3 months?

OTOH ..... I ordered a Falcon tailpipe from Dandy Exhausts on eBay on Sunday , suggested Delivery time Jan 16- 23 ,
I don't need it for a few months but ordered it now incase I forgot about it . Blow me down its arrived at the door yesterday . How is that even possible !!

Similarily I ordered a full Dodge engine gasket set on Friday 13 , from DCM, Chicago , USA , it was delivered to my door Monday 16 .

We’ve only been married 49.75 years, how am I supposed to remember these things?

I should remember the date - it was the date of the Apollo 8 launch.
