Regarding your worst jobs list Tom, a buddy of mine travelled around Europe in his younger days doing odd jobs to get by.

He reckons the worst job he had was cleaning back-packer hostels, where he'd stay for zilch for his efforts.
Won't go into the details, as I realise it's lunchtime now, but he said they were the grottiest places imaginable.

Can anyone who has been/lived in America before, tell me whether shopping centre car parks over there have special car parks designed to accommodate all of their big "trucks"? I couldn't imagine that ALL of the car park spaces would be large enough accommodate them, as the car park would lose about 50% of its capacity, but there's way too many of those "trucks" around for them to be excluded from parking at shopping centres altogether, I would have thought.

The reason I ask is because last night at my local Coles shopping centre, an owner of a Toyota Tundra was parked over two parking spaces, on an angle, and even though he was sprawled evenly over both parks, his arse end still stuck out a metre over the line. Granted, this particular car park is pretty small, but even then, those suckers are huge!

Perhaps dazbroncos could shed some light?

Spaces are all the same size. People park like dicks all the time. And yes, the big trucks park over two spaces all the time. Gets boring fast.

You'll see the size of the ford f250 they are bringing out. It's a battleship.

Worst is in multiple story car parks.
Horrible

Oh what a great friday night :mad:

I absolutely hate projectile vomitters.
Especially when they vomit twice (in 2 different areas) on the carpet on the way to the toilet.

And they hold it in so much that when they reach the toilet, the pressure is too great.
Toilet in, under, around the back, everywhere covered. the floor completely covered. The wall was hit. The carpet on the way into the toilet :mad:

Also probably doesn't help that I have never had a problem cleaning it. It doesn't make me gag.
But projectile !!!! glory be!!!!!

Oh god VC. :eek:
Is it one kid or both? Or both plus wife? Is it gastro?
You'll be too busy cleaning up to get into mischief on the list discussion thread at least.

Pretty sure I've never projectile vomited.

You haven't lived.

Was the Mrs. Hence much larger damage zone :)
Yes she had gastro last week.

Got no idea what it was. She only had a few wines.
Told her to go to bed and let me clean it.

Still friggin hate it. Especially at night. You scrub carpets and you can't see jack shit.

This is the sort of thing I've missed out on lol!
When were you in Paris rocker, and did you love it? Paris is my dream holiday destination.
paris massively overrated...the champs is one dirty mile and the city in general isnt that clean.

my favourite bit was (bar watching people take their dogs into clothes shops in nice):
