Well if you must know....

I could see a tell-tale repetitive-movement shadow, and thought he could have a nervous twitch or something, maybe his leg was bouncing up and down.

But as I was walking out of the dunnies I made the mistake of glancing over my shoulder and seeing a shadow on the floor that put the issue beyond doubt.

Hahaha

My mother flooded her unit at the retirement village on Sunday, she is 82 and has ******* moved in !! FFS! Seems the insurance company are taking their bleeding time. They freaking haven't met her. If her name was Judy you'd call her Judge.

Crickey she would win this thread hands down if she new how to operate a computer. Four nights she quoted tic toc. Gunna be a loooong week or so. Am just hanging in there, anyone got a spare room? Not fussed about my wife and kids. Can cook, am clean and will pay....... cash!!
Sounds good. I need a new friend. We can chat to each other on big footy in different rooms.

I remember an old lady doing that when i lived in an apartment. 30mins before they turned the water off and it had soaked the entire carpet in the hallway and drained into our storage units. Wasn't too impressed. Had to empty the entire storage unit just in case mould developed. Humidifiers and giant fans were used non-stop for 4 days to dry out the carpets. Sounded like a jet engine was running outside our apartment. Made sleeping fun. It wasn't the old ladies fault but spending 2 hours clearing out a storage unit on a saturday made me dislike her immensely.

dont you love it when a 5 minute exercise putting a bluetooth module in the car turns into a 2 hour dash removal/re-installation activity.
Yep. You think "bluetooth. This will be easy. It's been around for years". Next thing you're watching 'how to connect bluetooth to your car' on youtube videos on your ipad as you sit in the passenger seat. Then you get shitty and call the dealership and they aren't sure with that model and tell you to read the instruction manual.

fortunately GG the BT part worked fine, it was the legacy AUX analog connection in the back of the factory radio that was the issue, and its buried right the way behind the factory loom, the head unit only comes sweet FA and left very little room for my fat fingers to move.

Who did that for you?
myself, that was how i spent the better part of my morning,
