Out for dinner and my best female friend BFF says ‘at Wayne’s (her hubbies) funeral’ instead of at Wayne’s dads funeral, me ‘well that’s wishful thinking!” And the table erupted, as the laughter (OMG my laugh issooooo loud) subsided I said to Wayne ‘so honey, when’s the next one?”

LOL,

Changing licence plates on the new Ute mate be laugh.

The front plate was bolted to the bull bar and there's no way to get a hand behind the plate. First I dropped a nut onto the tray at the bottom taking the old ones off. Well that's fckd, how the hell am I going to get that out?

After a few minutes thinking, I managed to poke the magnetic head screwdriver through the gap at the top and holding it with 2 fingers, tried to get the nut to stay attached long enough to get it over the 2cm lip so it would fall down into the lower tray where I would be able to get my hand under to pick it up. 10 minutes I was there doing it, the nut kept falling off and rather than get frustrated I thought of one of those skill testing vending machines where you put in a coin and try to use a mechanical arm to pick up a toy, but keep dropping it. I couldn't help but actually LOL. Eventually got it out.

The second bit was just as fiddly. Put the plate on with the bolts sticking through into the back, then holding the nut in 2 fingers, get it somewhere near the back of the nut, poke 1 finger through from the other side and once it's in place, hold it there with 1 finger while starting to turn the bolt so the nut threads on. Got both of them first go without dropping them :D

In my last Engineering meeting for today despite it being on record that I am off overseas for a month I got asked can I finish something up which would take me about 3 days. My response in the meeting was NDP. Now the main Boss laughed and when the 2 IC asked what's NDP I replied with a poker face, "Not Dale's Problem". Well, the room erupted in laughter as did the Skype chat.

I've been briefed about my travel not to tell anyone what I do (Capt Obvious) so I am taking a leaf out of Get Smart (for the oldies), I work for the Pontiac Greeting Card Company.
