Thread: Need a laugh at someone elses expense...i.e. mine :-)

I think we all have done something similar sometimes in our lives. Its the second time you do the same thing that you start to worry.
I did notice in your photo that you still had the jockey wheel attached to your trailer. Your next nasty experience could possibly be when the jockey wheel unwinds itself with the travelling vibrations, as they do, and the bottom half (wheel and stem) slide out from under your trailer at 100 KPH and tend to disrupt following traffic somewhat.
Do us all a favour and remove it when you travel!

ya gotta laugh

I moved a dresser with mirror once,, being clever I thought,
"i'll just turn it sideways, no wind resistance, no need to tie it down"
Along the highway we went,, first big semi going the other way-- woooska! suddenly I have a topless dresser!!

lol wow that is a cheapy you are lucky!

My boss had a nice pop top hiace once and his son decided to suprise dad and give a big wash and polish only problem was he forgot to put the poptop down before putting it back in the shed! well he got a great suprise and had to laugh about it as poor son was allready feeling bad enough.

or when it comes halfway down while your on the highway and on the first turn into a washout crossing you wind up with the back axle of the rover clear of the deck, the front axle crossed up and not gripping on one side and all the tow hitch holding the whole shemozzle in place balancing on the now bent beyond use jocky wheel..

reminds me of "National Lampoons Vacation". where would we be if we couldn t laugh @ ourselves???

A mate of mine had a work ute with a steel canopy on tha back with lift up sides, he was loading it went inside, came back out and drove out of his nice NEW big double garage built onto the end of his NEW House
hmmmmmm...... Seems he forgot to put the side of the ute canopy down Took out the brick pillar, roller door fell down of the roof of the ute along with all the other bricks and half the bricks joing it onto the house !!

Car and garrage in a poor state !

Im told you could hear the langauge from a few blovks away
