I had Hungry Jacks today; no mould.

I'm not supposed to eat them anymore .........but I still sneak in now and again when nobody is looking


Well this is embarrassing

Wife has been going on and on about this new fridge/freezer and how great it is, 900 litres blah, blah. So I finally give in and we buy it, delivery van turns up and hey presto we cannot get it upstairs to the kitchen as it's too big
Delivery guys want none of it and drive off leaving fridge outside on the verandah . I ring a friend who has a large tractor with a bucket on the front who drives round within the hour, the plan is to lift the fridge up and over the balcony into the kitchen via the dining area french doors

After a bit of careful measuring it's decided that we are 400mm short in height, so we lay rows of block pavers down to build up to the correct height. We then had two or three practice runs before tying the fridge onto the bucket and lifting it up to the balcony. By now two more friends have arrived to help as we cannot lift the fridge out of the bucket, but with lots of heaving, bits of wood and rope we finally got it onto the balcony without dropping it 3.4 metres to the ground below.

Now it's in the house and we take it out of the box, there is a big note stuck to the side of the fridge.......Installers / Delivery......If this fridge will not fit through doorways or stairwells remove doors as per instructions

Purchased a new side y side a couple of weeks ago. looked at the french door models and the salesman said it needs french or sliding doors to fit through. Too ig for normal doors.
