Both girls at 4 days old. Pick the difference.

Amazing!

I think someone will be out of a job
Driver only over their
He must have got off loco while still loading
He must have isolated protection that stops this from happening
What a mess it would have caused

Yep- Kookaburras are usually much shier than that.  I deduce from the heavy glove that they're accustomed and this is a sanctuary of some sort.

We swapped our old rented 50 inch TCL 3D TV over yesterday for one of these. https://hisense.com.au/product/65-series-6-65p6/

Also found out they don't make 3D TVs anymore  :'(  or we would have another one.

We had a 3D tv some years ago, but we only ever used it once.

I bought a 55 inch 3D TV a few years ago and 2 3D movies watched them twice and haven't watched them since
No wonder they don't sell them anymore
But it still works and a good TV

Watching Star Trek Beyond in 2D after seeing the 3D version will be like a whole dimension is missing.

Word of wisdom to young blokes married or partnered:

If the Missus asks what you're doing today, have a ready answer.  Sorting your nuts and bolts in the shed apparently isn't good enough.  It needs to involve selfless charity work or a hospital visit for a transplant as an organ donor or recipient.

Otherwise you'll spend hours like me cleaning the outside of the windows.    :'(

That's why I like shift work.  I can create Clayton's shifts if need be.

I had an arguement in the loungeroom with a bee last night. It lost but I suffered after I stood on it.

Had a chipped tooth filled yesterday so ok there. Have a piece off of another tooth and it has been pain free until I got home from the dentist. Go back Monday to get that one fixed.

Finally finished updating photo links due to Photobucket's change over; hopefully I never missed any.

Now only allowed to link up to 25mb for free on there now.

I have some on Flickr which I started using after Photobuckets upset and since they changed hands the free link limit went to 250 photos so they're fine with only 200 on there.

Everything else went on to http://www.imghostr.net/

Apart from here which took ages I had to update a few on FarRider and on MyMcphoenix where they prefer images uplodded to the site rather than hot linked.

Only site I couldn't update was related my knitting machine. They fairly strict on editing your own posts allowing only hour after you made the post. Had to leave those images on photobucket but everything else is gone from there.

At 36,000 feet over Bangladesh en route Paris via Dubai as I type using my free wifi on Emirates. How good is that?
