For reasons unknown to me, the very painful right shoulder that’s plagued me since last year, suddenly abated overnight. Was afraid to see a doctor in case they told me to pause work - that would have made life really difficult.
Maybe it was dislocated and I somehow popped it back in? Still a bit sore and restricted, but nothing like it has been. |

Bi-passing the line at the servo yesterday and paying cash because the eftpos didn't work, I cant believe how many people rely on this system to be there always when they need it ? .
I know in the scheme of things its a small hiccup, but its becoming more frequent in the last 12 months Good to see that it shows CASH is still King I wonder how they solved that problem at the servo, there would have been at least 10 people standing there with confused looks on their faces waiting to pay, and I'm sure there would have been plenty of other places around with the same issues . |

Waking up this morning wondering why the alarm didn't go off..
To find out it's Sunday and not going to work. Hell yeah, that made me feel good. More time to work on the new FG.

Didn't take a before pick, but anyhows.
Staying in a hotel I've stayed in before, front desk people are all lovely, so are the housekeepers. Right, so no reason to complain as changing rooms would be annoying to me and also, i find part of this self satisfying. The freezer in the room was the most iced up i have ever seen. So tiny little freezer box in a bar fridge but almost completely filled. So not that i was needing the freezer, i just did the pull the fridge out and turn it off for a few hours. Then the satisfying part of the big slabs of ice coming out with no effort. So freezer is about the size of a loaf of bread. |

Yep. Tastes better with freedom.
Three years ago Miss Nicola was telling you all it’s safer to stay home, trust nobody, wear a mask. She was a total doll, but the message was rotten. |

Pranking the toilet seat with one of those oversized air sachets used in packaging fragile goods.
Nothing quite like an earth-shattering kaboom just before bed. |

I’m a bad artist but a compulsive doodler. Sometimes pictures just need altering.

Hi. I feel really good today about getting a $400+ tool trolley from the great team at Kincrome for $250. Only problem is no keys but with the huge price drop I can buy matching locks for it and my toolbox. Cheers MD

Sold a GXL dash and a Fairmont grill, got a pile of green backs, might buy that Edelbrock intake manifold for my 351 I've been thinking about.

Rotten with the flu but a kindly seller let me take four hours removing a front cut with inner skirts from a B-series. Don’t think I’d have survived without injury or part damage if I was rushed.

Sold the business a few weeks ago, currently in handover phase.
Realisation that retirement is about a week and a half away is starting to sink in!
