The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread IV

[Slasher]

Dogs do read the pee-mail and respond to it. Their equivalent of Facebook, but they'd probably call it Arsebook.

Wouldn’t it be great if we could make clear succinct posts by just pissing on the screen? No annoying spellchecker, no typing, and no censorship such as ***** and ****.

Dunno if I could hack sniffing Gob’s contributions though.

Still raining hard here. 30 hours continuous. Streetlights have failed and after yesterday's low cloud my outside solar lights are off.

[handsfree]

Top of the morning to you all.
+2C CAVOK.

Off to the jolly blood straining people.
Have managed to keep close to my target weight over the last two days
so I may be spared the nursie ear bashing this morning. I have however been threatened
with a visit from the renal dietician which is always somewhat tortured.

Have a nice day y'all.

[Ibbie]

Morning folks.

I know it's Thartday, but it has been cancelled.

Mrs IB has doctor's appointment at 12.00 and another of the club was carted away to hospital yesterday.

Water supply restored at 01.00 this morning and not at full pressure.

Blue with quite a bit of cloud up above, temperature 11c.

My Workmate is a mere 40 years old - ................... Apart from some chunks out of the wooden vice jaws where the saw/chisels have ...errrr.."slipped", it's still all in one piece. Still got the four black vice pegs as

Similar. Have recently replaced the wooden tops, even drilled large holes to take the plastic pegs.

[Pontius Navigator]

In days before workmates a good sturdy Windsor kitchen chair sufficed, complete with saw cuts, but in the days of brace and bit was spared the odd drill hole.

[OFSO]

My dad did the woodwork on the kitchen chair as a 'workmate'.... Can see it now, it was painted blue, and massive. Happy days !

[Wodrick]

G'day,
Overcast, cool, 12c in a stiff breeze.

Gotta shop in a while, the world will be closed tomorrow.

SM has just returned from the Health nothing has changed.

Little Bro is trying very hard to get us to go to the UK for a week in July.
We have been looking at Harpair and he gets different prices to me, not trivial £50 or so.
The cost of bags is astronomical.

Afternoon folks. Town day. Drove 50 km to my hairdresser to find she wasn't there. She probably SMSed me but it didn't come through. Weekly shopping done. Internet reset yesterday, off again this morning. Told them to concentrate on why it is tripping not just reset it. They are on their way back now.

Started legal.action against the watchmakers in CPT for shoving my watch into the post instead of courier.

Still raining here. The dry ravine by our house......isn't.

[OFSO]

Maximum wave height today on the Costa Brava is 9.2 metres (red alert in force). . Looking down at the sea below at 14:30 I'd say that's correct.

I would give it 1 mm wave height on our lagoon. However 16 mm of rain in two hours. the lagoon level is significantly up. Another storm coming in. The river in town which feeds to us is maintaining rainwater. This means that when the floods arrive they will not soak in, the water table is still high which we hope means that we will benefit.

Internet fixed again. They found a chewed cable leading up to the long range router dish. F..ing squirrels. I am going to shoot them, skin them, have them made into coats and sell them to Markel.

Pissing it down.

My Workmate was fine until some idiot house sitters allowed our estate manager to use it to chop logs on it with a hand held circular saw. Still serviceable with all four wedges but rather damaged. Bunch of w@nkers.

This rain is amazing.

My urine is like rose water, rose water, my dear Captain Slasher!

Oh, ok with just the tint of Rose Wine, from time to time!

As for Arse (sniffing or not) I suggest we leave it to these good folks...

With your moniker Captain you would be in your element using the micturition based mode of communication!

This rain is amazing.

Enjoy it

We've been having too much, and rain landing here only has 600 metres to travel to get to the oggin.

[bob2s]

ExA,if the rain starts to overwhelm you then send it over to Aussie,the rain is sorely needed due to ongoing severe drought and bushfires.The lack of rain is causing water to be road freighted to some communities that have run out of water.Sydney dam levels are all below 50%capacity and water restrictions are ramping up with hose use being banned, consequently most of the grass is as dead as a dead dingos donga, which just makes perfect fuel for the bushfires.
Bring on the RAIN.

[Rwy in Sight]

Maybe it would be worth buy stocks at a company doing weather modification flights.

[4mastacker]

The scaffolding has gone from me restored lock chamber #2 - this time last year this was just a big hole in the ground. Still a bit to do like fitting the gates and other bits n bobs, but it's coming along.

Your photograph reminded me of the back lane between back-to-back colliery houses.

Morning. 0915L in Trashville China.

Easy LOFT sesh ending 5am smorning with 2 highly experienced F/Os who are about to start their command training early in the new year. Knew their sh!t inside out. Taught ‘em a coupla things to keep in mind applicable to being a Capt. Soaked every word I said like blotting paper. The concept of orbits was new to them and we did a couple - one at 500’ and at 200’. They reckon it’s fun!

Looks like I am not going home till the 10th but it’ll be the 18th when I have to back here. Presently kissing the Planner’s arse to drag a day or two more out of him. Two highly experienced A320 destructors have reluctantly come back from home overseas and one is going to be made an Examiner - which he doesn’t want but was told he has to. Wouldn’t be surprised if he resigns.

I have to serve 12 months of my Contract before I can pull the plug without penalty and go to SIN. This means March next year. Since the Singapore IRAS NOR scheme ends 2020 I’ll have to decide well by then to stay or bugger off.

Pleased to see FEW040CB bore some useful precip recently Sah and relagooned the Lagoon a tad. I hope the ubiquitous Bat flight aren’t bombing the Manor veranda with guano too much.

Good luck with the lock ‘stacker.

Gonna hit the sack awhile after I read the SCMP and see what’s going on in the world.
