So my month off has been shortened, 1 phone call asking if I'd do an outage at Yallourn W over Anzac day weekend, PH rates $115/hr....sure, then a phone call later this morn, can you start tomorrow at Morwell power station tomorrow?.....so that'll slow me a little:(

10.5 hrs yesterday, 12.5 hrs today, so my month off is going well, progress has halted:(

Can you come in tomorrow? what about not having Monday off? grrrrrrr:mad:

Oh, 250VDC 60 year old valve actuators and control circuits are a mind ****!......nothing like being at work at 1900 pulling a sootblower, via slings and a come along out of a running boiler either, madness:eek:

On a good note, I've found $45 in my paypal account:D that I haven't used in over a year:angel:, now trying how to work out how to order my detroits from the states, but diferent email address, can't work out how to change it, hmmm

Oh and my brand new 130" tailshaft that appeared, seems to be exactly 10"s shorter than my 120" shaft:(

Well, pulling the second operational one apart was where you excelled:D

A tiny bit of progress, ordered front flares from flatdog UK, 220Pound inc frieght, so that's about $365, plus $10ish international tx fee.......oh that's for 2 pairs of fronts, maybe I should hold them ransom till the owner of the other pair comes down for a high country trip:angel:

My lot want to take a week in July but could be a bit nippy your way. I would be in the long arse MN as my Rangie is not finished yet:angel: I miss it I can tell you as now off the road. Miss it that much I came close to buying anothery:eek:
TNT would be great as the 750x16's don't cut it for me. Nor will the Bunnings garden edging over the 35's:D
