Grumbling is, surprisingly, a good thing

Best wishes 

Awww, thanks @Arpie.  Luv ya.

Kind of have to learn to do a lot of things when you have an old and tired (but much loved) farm and not a lot of cash to throw at tradies!  Plus I married a cowboy so if it ain't got hair and hooves...well you know.  I don't do snake catching though.  That one is his job. EEEWWW.

I have only just read this thread as I thought the heading was Crumbling which didn't make sense

I was renting a house in Wagga during the 90s that had a dodgy dunny. The real estate agent was not at all interested in the lake of shit in the back yard and the sewarage coming up through the plug hole in the shower until I took a bucket full of ''evidence' into their offices. Clumsy of me to drop it, but I was feeling quite faint from the stench...

I had a toilet blockage years ago - stepped out the back door to find the backyard transformed into a sewage pit!! Rang the plumber. He arrived with his "electric eel" - patented loo unblocker, and shortly produced the culprit, several lengths of tree root. What finished me was when he held the offending plant life to his nose, sniffed appreciatively and said "yep, definitely your lemon tree"!! 

Woohoo!!  Rant away @Zoffiel  .... I'd have the shits with that too!!  Yeah, takes your mind off BC, eh?   A bit concerned about the mystery green stuff growing in your sink cupboard, tho!  ??

@kezmusc  - GO GIRL!!  You are HOT!!!   AND able to fix a leaking loo, sink & whatever ..... a man's dream woman!!  Not so sure about the Eastern Brown tho!  :(  

GO @AllyJay - I've been known to tell 'pusher inerrers' to bugger off to the back of the line where they belong - specially at Bunnings on 'specials' day - when people start queuing up 1-2hrs before the shop opens & they swan up 5 mins before ....... 

I'd never heard of a Kris Kringle before our 'dinner out' on Sat!! I reckon ours was the  only ones that actually DID cost up to $20 ...... and great hilarity was had with people pinching other people's .......  And What is a Secret Santa?  Similar to Kris Kringle?  How on earth did it get THAT name?

oh YUCK @Sarnicad!!   That sounds absolutely HORRIBLE - the Pits!  A Similar happened to a uke friend this time last year - but it all happened whilst she was away & she came home to a house, literally, full of shit, and it was right on Xmas!  :(  She was SO lucky the first bloke she rang was gracious enough to come out & fix the blockage & advised her on getting her insurance company out to do the rest - as it needed industrial cleaning & checking (once poo is mentioned!)

@kezmusc I'm impressed that you kept them on for dancing! I have discovered that Letrozole and very high heels don't seem to mix - ankles aren't what they used to be.

What a laugh and a half.  Good on you @AllyJay  Would loved to have been there.  Only yesterday I had a group of so Coool  teenagers have a good old laugh at my super super short hair cut. ( too bloody hot up here at the moment to wear a hat )  At the beginning of this BC trip I would have ended up in tears but decided to let rip instead.  No patience for idiots.anymore.  Have to say it felt good.
@kezmusc  Awesome outfit  and great pic to look back on.
OMG @Sarnicad  What a clean up that would have been.   What is it with husbands okay with the vacuum, tick  Mopping,  tick,  Cleaning of kitchen,tick. Yard clean up ,tick,  Bathroom and toilet. HELL NO.   :/

Hey @Sister,  Yes I do love those boots.  They have served me well as Magenta from Rocky Horror also.  Thankyou @Doodoo.  I had a great night although I could hardly walk for two days after dancing in those boots.  My poor back and hip ain't what it used to be Thankyou HT.  

Amazing boots @kezmusc ...and the rest of you, of course!
