ALDI is an issue with no low items lines. It relies on kindness if you have 5 items v full trolley. Are there any Aldi with Express anywhere?

No. There is a knack to standing back in the cue just enough to defend your possie but being in prime possie when they open another register.

Maybe we should just get the Poms to come out every summer.

Jury duty pushed back another day. At this rate it will be getting awfully close to our work Xmas drinks lunch..

Got my 1st ever notification that I was in the jury pool, sent them an email saying as a farmer I couldn’t risk my stock running out of water if I was away
Received a response 2 days later excusing me from jury ever again

In case you need a bit of insight into the procedures and a lesson or two on how to conduct yourself...

I also got a letter this week for jury service must be a regional thing.
Also will be putting in an exemption as no court house near me

“Suitcase of memories”
Time after Time

36 years later I heard what that line actually is. I thought it was “soon call around me” or something

Some songs are better with misheard lyrics

Like that Mentals' song The **** are getting bigger.

I asked the plumber for a rough quote if we were to reline the entire 22 metres of terracotta pipe from the house to the sewer trap and ensure this problem was solved forevermore. $30-$35,000.

I was like Chevy Chase in National Lampoon’s Vacation when cousin Eddie said he needed a few bucks to get by and Chevy asked “how much?” “Ohhhh $50,000 oughta do it”, as Chevy shoves his hundred dollar bills back into his wallet quick smart.

My actual reply was “yeah nah, the 3 metres will do for now and we’ll save those major jobs for when we expand out and up.”

Christ plumbing is expensive!

That's coz he's a carpenter. Or a stonemason. Depending on who you believe.

I see all. I know all. I ban all.

Are you the Anti Schultz?

If you look up the list of misheard lyrics for that song that is one of them.

Spent the afternoon cleaning concrete off the brand new Lancruiser. I can thank the builder next door for the concrete pour on Friday.
Thinking now. I’m glad I got that overpriced paint protection from the dealership.

And on that note I now have a shit fight with ARB after spending 25k on upgrades,
They dented my roof and chipped some paint off the rear door whilst putting in my drawers.

Were you parking close to the pour or how did it happen?

Car was in my driveway. I was at work. Came back to find concrete spray all over the car. No letter no nothing from the builder.

Nah that’s not right, I take it you have the Grano’s details?

I believe that people who stand near a pedestrian crossing but don't make a decision can and should be run over.
