That's the way things are with me.

It's like dog droppings in the backyard. For years my son used to walk to and from his room next to the the garage (in bare feet) and never stood in one - not one!

I can clean up after the dog then turn around and step in one he's just laid. My family cannot believe how often I step in dog crap. They think it's hilarious.

Our place we never see them,we have 3200M square,and a Springer that seems to either save them for when she is out getting some exercise,which is at least once a day,or does them way down the back in a section of bush that is down at the back of the yard.

The vet also said never feed them the cheap food,as its full of fibre,ours gets the food with around 2% fibre,and its not the fancy expensive stuff either.

We feed them the Advance brand dog food which is supplied by Guide Dogs NSW/ACT. A 15kg bag cost $130.

What % fibre?

Grrrrrrrr! Three weeks ago my old printer died. OK I was old, so I bought a new one and set it up on my computer and it worked fine. Two days ago the old computer started giving trouble so I purchased a new one. Now my new printer wont work on my new pc because the pc has usb3 ports and the printer is usb2. They should be compatible but apparently not GGGRRRRRRRR!!!

I bought a jump starter/battery pack - which didn't work straight out of the box ($199).. Asked how I could return it - and the vendor gave me a full refund instantly and asked me to dispose of the unit.. I pulled it apart, and replaced the battery for $50, and it works like a treat... Winning

Eeeeerrrrr, it was an attempt at humour. Remember humour?

Sir, have you ever indulged yourself with one of those 'airless' paint sprayers ?

I am fighting down the urge to buy one (under $100, preferably <$50) as I've got a couple of interior brick walls and ceilings/ exposed beams to paint, the latter all going one colour. Then it can retire and end its days doing asbestos shed & fence duty.
Normally I'd stick with rollers, but as there's several doors involved.... I'm told they do a great job with full gloss / oil based paint, and couldn't be worse than my roller efforts !
I can't ju$tify the low pressure air driven ones.

Ideas anyone, Ozito ? or "cheap" Wagner? - More practice instead ???

I had one many, many years ago. It wasn't that good. Today's might be much better.

I have a Bambi Air low pressure system in the garage I've never used - it belonged to my son. I use a high pressure system. Too bad you are not closer, the price would be very attractive to you.
