Yep, if you were allergic to sunshine, Britain would be a good place to live..........

I'm now totally pi$$ed with English weather, specially summer. Been cruising the canals in the old country for a week now and have hardly seen the sun. This arvo after another day of rain, the sun comes out. Bewdy, its 1730 so time to moor up our narrowboat and break open a bottle of Aussie Hardy's 2012 cab sav, some cheese and crackers, kick back and relax in the sun. Had a quick shower first. By the time we gets the plonk and bikkies out, in come the clouds and it starts freakin' rainin' again. Geez. As if we haven't had enough to put up with already.
A week ago we stayed with my cousin in London for a few days, he had a cold and passed it on to us, so, for the last few days I've been waking up in the morning with a cough that sounds like a 5 pack a day nicotine addict, coughin' up great gobs of greenies. Not only does that pi$$ me of but I cop an earbashin' from the missus for waking her up. Not only that but early this arvo I gets a case of the trots. Stuff me! It's 1900 and the bloody sun's out again. Did I say English weather pi$$es me off?

Good to see nothing has changed over there.  The missus and I spent just over 3 weeks over there, visiting her old man, 18 months ago.  We only saw the sun for 3 days out of the 3 weeks, and it was cold as hell to boot. 

I can only hope you made it in time...

The ol' fishin' & crabbin' mate gave me call yesterday to see if I could have a look at the brake booster on his Prado which had a vacuum leak.

No worries, so he came around this morning at about 10 and I put a new front seal into it which is generally all that goes wrong with 'em.

Well, the ol' mate likes a cold one so after the job was done, out came the oysters and cold beers for morning smoko.

He's been through a bit of sh1t time lately with his missus pissin' off and then he had a stroke just to top things off.

We're sitting down and having a feed and washing down the oysters with an ale or 2 and then he starts sending text messages.
I said, Oi, put that fcuken thing away fcuk ya.

Then he told me that he was texting his new missus.
No worries mate, fill me in, what's she like, any good, got big tits?
"Yeah, well Mick, it's costing me 1000 bucks a week."
Ok, I get it mate.
So what do get for the rent money mate?
Well, she cooks and cleans the joint and washes the clothes plus any extras without limitations.

So, without devulging the sordid details for obvious reasons, I hope that I'm not beginning to sound like the jealous Green Eyed Monster, because

Geez Mick, I've been to Darwin, and for a grand a week, I'm guessing she's not a local.........

[mick7504]

My monies on an East Wester mate. 
I don't mind this, and I don't mind that, but when it comes to this,
FCUK THAT 

[Terry in Australia]

My Physio, a lovely little Vietnamese princess, told me that if I ever split up with the missus then I should visit Vietnam. I had a lot of mates go there in the 60's and 70's, but they all said they had a priick of a time, so I think she's stooging me.........

[mick7504]

It was about 1984ish when I went for an interview to rent a room in a shared house at Larrakeyah, in Packard Street, just down the road from the Larrakeyah Army Barracks.

This joint was occupied with an accountant, a school teacher, a lawyer and some other educated fcuka that I can't remember what.

Anyway, I rocked in, covered in grease and sh1t with a six pack under my arm.
As it turned out, they loved me and I got the nod to move in.

This lad who was a school teacher, owned an old VW Beetle which was forever sh1ttin' itself, so I swung a few spanners on it to keep it moving along.
We became pretty good mates and he had a Philipino girlfriend, who lived over there and use to come over here to Oz for a visit and a bit of Ozzie pork sword.

Well the ol' mate Graham was infatuated with this woman and he was sending bucket loads of cash over there for her and her family.

As time went by, he found out that she was already married and had a truck load of kids over there with this other fcuka.
The poor bastard got cleaned out over that.

He went into a flat spin about that and dissapeared from Darwin and Ive never heard from him since.
Geez, talk about fcukin' ya life up just to get ya end in. 

[Stev-o]

Nobody pissed off today?  That pisses me off!

[vfourfreak]

Same problem here Stev-o, nothing to be pissed off about, and nobody else pissed off either. Mebbe I'll EMail my ex and piss her off.

Pissed off again today with this Pommy weather. My schnoz (no translation required) got freakin' sun  burnt!!!  Just moored up a 1/2 hour ago at 1800 and its raining again. Still suffering with the dreaded lurgy.

Perhaps not. I was there in '67-'68 and all though you would be hard pressed to find a dwelling or roadside shrine without pock marks and bullet holes, and a wee bit if plowed up vegetation  , you could see that at one time Vietnam was a beautiful country and perhaps it is again for all I know. It was quite the vacation destination for the French at one time. Of course that was prior to Dien Bien Phu. 

[Bailgang]

I've been pissed for over a year since Formula 1 television rights here in the US went to a network that's not on the "package" I have with my local cable service but today I was able to watch the Canadian GP in Montreal and the first time to hear what the new turbo v6 F1 engines sound like. Maybe I'm spoiled by the screaming bloody murder sound the previous 18k rpm v8's made but the new turbo v6 engines sounded more like a drone which pissed me off.

Another thing I know will piss us all off is when our Aussie mates here find out it was an Aussie that won the Canadian GP and all the gloating we're going to have to deal with. Oh well congrats to Daniel Ricciardo.

[vfourfreak]

Hey Scott,

F1 pissed me off about 5 years ago, with "innovations" like DRS and KERS. Got to be a bit like arcade games with the "TURBO" button. To feck with it and Ecclestone.

Bless 'em all, but I'm not watching.

Don't be so hard on F1 Kev, it's not nearly as boring as IROC Indy Car racing has become.

[Retro Rocket]

My bloody vacuum cleaner sounds more like a F1 car than this current batch of asthmatic shopping trolleys, and Go hard Daniel....

Another fatal croc attack at Kakadu on Saturday afternoon.
Apparently this bloke was in the boat emptying a bucket of water over the side when the Saltie lept up and grabbed him and dragged him under.

It's one of the nicest places on earth out there but it has to be shared with these deadly monsters.

[Retro Rocket]

There is no way in the fcuking world would i fish out of a tinnie in the north, those salties can leap the length of their body out of the water chasing a snack, a tinnie is a speed bump by comparison...

[mick7504]

And they like chewing the legs off of outboard motors as well Mick.
Just for an entree.
It wasn't uncommon back in the day to have the tackle box equipped with lures and a .44 revolver.

For sure Mick, one of my closest friends is a Mount Isa boy and spent a lot of time in the gulf fishing, they always had a pistol or rifle with them, his Dad was a professional Roo shooter ...

Ha ha, I was just taking the piss Bob, my neice and nephew are school teachers in Hong Kong, but for the last three years they taught school in Vietnam and said it's a fantastic place now.

I've got another mate who's a teacher up in the north and he loves it, he's selling his CB750 that he left behind in Melbourne to buy a bike in Vietnam, as he reckons he'll be staying for quite awhile. Cheers, Terry.

trying to solder a pin hole leak at a top tank seam on a radiator,the finished job looks good but then has a pissy weep in what looks like solid solder,how do them radiator guys do it?it pisses me off!

[Terry in Australia]

I know the feeling Dave, I had a leak in my XA's radiator when I lived in Brisbane, I took it into work and one of the old Civvy mechanics soldered it up for me for a 6 pack, and it was still leak-free when I sold it 5 years later. Really good solderer's piss me off!
