there is always sorrow in parting but there will also be a time to rejoice when he visits on leave.

Had a root canal treatment at the dentist today. Now it hurts like a son of a *****. Everytime something touches it, I go throught the roof. Cannot eat or drink. Stupid thing is I went to work when the anesthetic still worked, so I'm sitting at my work waiting for the day to finish. Cannot leave as I drive with someone else.
work, not busy enough to warrent me being here but not quiet enough for me to go home though !!!!
so sat in my office leting my chef's get on with it cruising the forum on my office PC !

Eating a bag of chips this morning and breaking a molar tooth in half. Hurt like heck at the time Thankfully it is not that painful right now, just a dull throb. Can't get in to see the Detist until later this afternoon.
Driving through a biblical storm on the Autobahn last night everyone was doing 50MPH (80KMH) exept the odd fool doing two times that all were in 4x4 (SUVs) what is it about these tossers that makes them feel immortal? I dont mind them killing themselves, please drive into a tree at your earliest convenience but dont take some of the rest of humanity with you.
problem with our test machine....again...

Annoyed would be a good term....
bewildered is right up there.........
gobbsmacked? yep that one too.....
Need a "flyscreen" "screendoor" Gauze door", just depends on your origin what it is called.
Need the screen, gauze, replaced.
Was not aware one needs a double degree and special training and be a member of the SDG, "Screen Door Guild", in order to repair one.
This sort of work is "not done by glaziers", it's done by door manufacturers. "Glaziers stick to Glass" he says. "Screen doors is a specialty", he says. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is there special training after their 8 years of Uni or F'n what.............................
I just want the screen repaired.............. $75 dollar call out fee????????????? You gotta be sh!tting me!
F*************************************************************CK
I'll be all right.............. rum and coke will do the trick. Someone is having a birthday in here!

You seem a tad miffed Bill.....
Do it yourself Bill. Done a few in my day. I hope they have home repair stores in Australia. Just bring the bead to the store and buy the next thickest one, pickup a cheap bead installer tool and a roll of non-metal door screen and let the cursing begin! Seriously it's a little bit of a pain in the ass in the beginning, but stick with it and you will be happy with the results
Oh, and if you can get someone to hold the screen "square" while you press in the bead that would be a bonus!

Vic, you just have to be Here to whitness the regulations of DIY, or should I say the consequences.
Contractors aere required to do almost everything. I have found a "Screen expert", 25 k's away and is about 2/3 the cost of DIY products to do the job. The little tool you mention, the wheel, is almost 30 bucks here..... I am living on an island! I would have to buy a 14 meter long roll of mesh to do a 2 meter job.
Contractors? Don't get me started. The first lesson they learn is how to leave the customer in a learch! Don't show up at all.. show up four hours late... never finish the job... "Do you rent, or own this property?" This will determine the quality, or completion, of the work!!!! One rental I was in, the tiler Never came back to grout the tile in the Sower!!!!!!!

Temporary crown put over my cracked tooth last week is still giving me aches and pains on and off after a we. Hopefully it's just taking a bit longer to heal and not something more drastic like needing a root canal before the permanant crown goes on.

Endless campaign commercials all day long."Vote for me not him/her!!!!!!!!" I'm so sick of this crap that I think they should just beat each other with a baseball bat to the death and the survivor wins. We already know that the winner is going to bugger us. It's just which one will bring flowers, take us to dinner, then use lubrication afterwards.

I hope that you don't need one. Never had one, but I hear that they hurt like h7LL.
Couldn't get our damn test machine working today...
One of our cats, Azul ( named after her blue eyes ) is missing. This isn't like her and I don't think we'll see her again. I am worried for the others - Azul's sister went missing a couple of months ago.
We live in a rural area of Spain and there are birds of prey around which are big enough to take a cat and some venomous insects too.
But one thing which is nagging at me is that our nearest neighbour ( about half a klick away ) has a son who is a junkie and generally very, very weird. I trust him just about as far as I can throw him. I'm no angel, I'm a lifelong biker and have done a lot of things I wouldn't want to mention here, but there is something very wrong with that guy. If he is hurting our cats in some way then it'll be a big problem.
I am a live and let live person, but animal cruelty ( as opposed to legitimate hunting or pest control in the proper context ) pushes all of my buttons and I can be very unreasonable and irrational when I come across it happening.

I'm on the same page with you, Siddley...I have less than zero tolerance for anyone who brings intentional harm to animals, especially for the sake of a cheap thrill. Anyone I catch doing so runs the risk of great bodily harm.
I know that having pets that like to wander, especially in a rural area where there's big hungry things, is cause for concern. Up here in the outer edges of town, pets are at risk from Mountain Lions, Coyotes and Eagles and the occasional Bobcat.
I hope that Azul has found a kind neighbor who's been spoiling them a little and that she'll make her way home, soon.
