I go along to this "biker teddy ride" on at the local mall. It was to be used as a "dry run" for the Toyrun. I'm shocked. The happy plonker who ran with it, guy by the name of Tiaan from Caxton newspapers, should be taken out and shot. Where do you get off making an event like this, and NOT having marshalls organised?
What the FUCK when i come to talk to you (after you don't return my calls) and immediately start talking about how you don't have enough badges? And seriously, if you advertise something like free food and discounts, then you bloody well ensure they are provided.
Not least of which, if you want to "organise" this kind of event, the least you can freaking do is be there on time. As usual, i'm ashamed to be a biker.
Fortunately, thanks to the CMA marshalls were provided, and it was quite cute listening to them talk about route a full 15 minutes after we were supposed to ride.
Nobody died, for which we should all be grateful.
Then i get dragged along to the barnyard theatre in broadacres. For a 70's show. Right. So i figured the parking lot would be more pleasant, where i befriended a fountain. But seriously, that's the one thing about going out somewhere in this mine dump ... you remember in painful clarity why you don't go out somewhere in this minedump.
Saturday was great ... i made a bird feeder, fixed ... something else, metal i think (?) and got busy with fixing a drawer. Oh yes, the leaking geyser. Bought some really fancy stuff, to seal the pipe joins, that didn't work. So tonight (hopefully) clean up the gunk off the pipes, and use silicon, i know how that stuff works!!
Then i had sunday, ah well, thank the gods a whole 5 days before weekend again.

Lol, know exactly what you mean :P
Nothing good ever comes out of Caxton newspapers.
What grade of silicon did you use for the leaking geyser? I'm asking because we also tried some fancy stuff for a leaking external water pipe - and it didn't work, either.
Love,

(PS word verification is "PRESS" hahhaaha)
Thanks mouse :)
I didn't, i used some "solderlene" .. for fixing pots and kettles etc. Thought it would work for pipes, maybe it does (?) but not for me :)
The volume of water wasting is getting me down. If i can route into the pool at least for now, then storage for veggie garden.
The strangest is that both the installer AND the "plumber" i paid a LOT to certify it, didn't bother putting a tap in anywhere, to switch off the geyser. So i'll be paying someone else to do that soon. lol
peace
