Australian Ford Forums - What made you feel good today?

Waking up at 4am thinking it was cold and another overcast day ahead, far from it, not only has it been sunny and probably 20 degrees, but my neighbour and friend Brooke turned up, her cat brought home another rat during the night, my cat shows then eats, her cat shows then let's go, lol, in her bedroom during night.
Asked if I could come and get it out, this is the 42 yr old size 6 girl who bathed me when I got out of hospital!
She had black short short cut-offs and white singlet, minus bra, I said you dident have to wear that just to get me to remove ya rat, and she said I just threw em on, and added I'm nude sunbathing in the back yard!....

Dident find rat, looked for a good hour, she just kept sunbathing!
She's a pretty laid back lass, and knows I'm impotent, but I did mention that my eyes still worked, said I needed help washing my back again, she said I bought you a backbrush, its in the bathroom!..:yelrotflm
Now that made me happy today!

Cheers Bug-eyed Billy!:notworthy

useless story without pictures :evilidea

Citroenbender I can't answer that question yet.
We have so much proof of what these arseholes have done we are hoping they end up behind bars.

Re: What made you feel good today?

That’s good, also consider if your helpful neighbour might be interested in taking on the official role of carer, it’s worth about $130/fortnight on top of any other payments she may receive.

I'm wondering he misread the 8 for 0 and thought he was going 102 :yelrotflm

Re: What made you feel good today?

few years ago I was caught doing 130 in 100k zone, by the same cop and both within 100m of each time. Due to the sensitive business I used to own and how it helped his family I got let off both times,

But that guy.... take my hat off to him, thats not an easy piece of road. I'd wager it was not a joy ride.

Re: What made you feel good today?

What made me feel good was going to bed at 8pm, runny nose sore throat etc, but woke up feeling 100% better, sore throat gone, cough gone and runny nose dried up!

Not sure how or where this damned thing come from but is there such a thing as 48hr flu?
Had flu shot too, but weather here in Perth is wet and windy for months, plus am assuming my immune system is still in full recovery mode after chest surgery, still only 7 weeks from that, the only thing I have done that may of caused it was running my car air-conditioning on cold for first time on Tuesday?.
I usually make a vinegar spray on a clear hose and shove it down my air vents with a little soapy water so it sticks to heaterbox?
Do that spring and autumn!
But I feel good today, better than yesterday!:tdown

Cheers Billy.

Have already spoke to her about it, she's a bit of a "flaky" type personality, and not sure If I can depend on her, its a big job as you know mate, takes a very special person to do it, am sure she would like the cabbage but is she dependable?

:lol Had that same phenomenon during our first long lock down when I didn't drive for over a week. Also had trouble judging speed and braking distance. But now I give the car a run every day, good to get out of the house, away from the same neighborhood, makes me feel good daily.

Watch how many people forget how to drive properly when you come out of lock down!

Just waking up early as usual, anywhere between 2 am and 4 am, and taking my left arm from under the doona ( sleep right side only ) and finding my cat nestled against my chest, he was snoring too, or the cat equivalent and that made me feel good today!:yelrotflm

Re: What made you feel good today?

After several months of back and forth with a neighbour, today I bought their unused 02 Toyota Echo with 100ks for 3k. What a cool little nugget it is! Only problem is it’s covered in redback spiders, I emptied a can of surface spray through it and under it hopefully none survive!

Had to tear it apart before they could ship it OS.

Re: What made you feel good today?

Reminds me sort of the time i found a redback in her web sitting on her eggsack in my boat. Gassing it out i decided wasnt overly smart as id had a suitable amount of beers. Probably a silly idea as the next morning the egg sack hatched. I did previously work for the company that manufactured mortein, so i wasnt short on kill spray.
Anyhow, toyota echo's/yaris's are mad. If you look past that they're slow and small, the rest is all good. I didnt have that opinion untill the ranger i had at the time had to spend a week at the mechanics and the courtesy car was a 1.3L yaris yr 2 door. The mechanics got it cheap as the paint was stuffed, but with 50 odd thousand on it, and the interior was clean. So being painfully slow didnt mean much being stuck in traffic all the time. Fuel economy was amazing. And turning circle/ car park manoeuvrability. Amazing.

Re: What made you feel good today?

I had a good one today. A few weeks back i was doing a fiddly job which required a 1.5mm allen key. I dropped it but knew exactly where it fell. Yeah nah, she was lost. Not the end of the world, i have extras, im a tool and a tool guy.
I did spend a bit of time looking at the time.
Today not for looking, but just walking past, something caught my eye.
Problem is i found it exactly where i thought i lost it.
Weeks later..... thats a minor win i guess.

Re: What made you feel good today?

Took the garage queen FGX XR8 for a fortnightly 5 minute drive to circulate fluids. Then noticed tank 10% to empty.

Ended up filling tank, then taking her for a run in the bush back roads of the LGA of where I live.

45 minutes later, almost quarter of a tank fuel gone, sweat streaking down from armpits both sides of T shirt. Made me forget the madness in world and confirm the sum of these beasts is far far greater than their various weaknesses.
