Wow, that was unexpected. Thank you for the win. Ok, rule reminder: 1. Winner of the last thread starts the new one with a post of these rules. 2. Chooses a future event that triggers the winner, e.g. post number, date-time, and records it privately somehow (yellow sticky, etc.) 3. Everyone has fun posting until the target event is reached. 4. When the target is reached, the old winner posts a declaration of the new winner and also PMs them. 5. Shortly after this a Mod will lock the recently won thread. (My preference is for the winner to ask the mods to lock the old thread after the new one is started.) 6. No double posts. Violators buy drinks or a meal for the house in Rocky's. 7. Additional rule retained from the last round - No posts that APPEAR to be blank - these will be ignored or deleted. (Sig lines do not count as part of a post) Please note, as I am probably going to be using a phone to view this thread much of the time pictures without poster comment are discouraged as they may not be visible to me and rule 7 may be applied as a result. Had some life creep up on me. First clue was 102.7 degree fever. Then getting wobbley and having to ask for a wheelchair. Now I know about some the afib symptoms I was experiencing. Oh and don't have strange dreams in the night. I pulled out a bunch of lines not knowing it. I'm home now and want to stay that way. ![]() ![]() |

Well I got got to spent a few hours working away in the yard this morning before the dark clouds returned, the wind came up and a few drops started to fall. I'll have a couple of beers now and maybe some lunch. Cheers. |

Congrats Admiral. The wins always seem to be unexpected. Unless you are the prior winner. |

About all that I have to do today is to finish getting the last of the present rumble out of the drainage trench that I've been digging for a while now (about another builder's wheelbarrow load), and then pull the rocks and stones out of it before using the leftover to add to a low spot in the yard, before the next lot of rain arrives (expected here tomorrow). Even though I still have a lot of planing out to do to it to get water running along it (it's 200mm/8" wide and at least 100mm/4" deep at its lowest point so far) the 25m of yard between the shed and the shop has dried out a lot already so it is working in a way even in its uncompleted state. Anyhow it's time for 1 more coffee before I head on out there. At least it's another nice morning here so far. Cheers. |

It'll be interesting to see my legs in the morning after a few sitting in the sun today. Now it's definitely Beer O'clock (followed by a meal with a spine pill). Cheers. |

Sleep tight Sten. ;-) Oh well I guess that I'd better get back outside to my trench warfare, but I get a 2nd coffee in 1st. Cheers. |
