No, it's the Philips All in One Multi Cooker
A full bowl of fruit loops for breakfast.
Attended my first Elvis convention today! Not sure what they're doing here at this time of year though!

Port of Geelong Hodgey. Lots of large freight comes in and out of here. Often wind turbines, sometimes huge transformers or other mining stuff, have seen oil rigs come in for refit, and other massive stuff. Today the air cranes were in. Yeah maybe dismantling and readying for return to northern hemisphere. I was surprised they were still here to be honest.
Finally back up to our little coupe today to run some post summer tests:

Finally have some action happening with our deck! Couldn't get somebody to do the work for us so we did it ourselves.

Good on you Winnie, the last big deck I built I did the holes by hand, but was younger and stronger then, not today, someone else can do it and all I have to do is lift the index finger and punch the phone to transfer the money. How did you go operating the digger - first time or used it before - might have a requirement on the new block for one.
Yeah these holes had to be 450mm wide and 600mm deep, there are 21 holes so for $300 I'm happy hiring the machine!
It was my first time using something like that but it was so easy to use. They did not give me a run down on it and within 10 mins I was a pro.

BAHAHAHAHAHAHA Benny
Bought some replacement headlight globes as one of them was shot.
With a very evil grin I agreed for the Supercrap bloke to "fit" the globes for $10 after he offered...
For those who know the back of the GU headlights, know the pain and misery of getting those globes in and out.
10 minutes later and assistance from the other members in-store, they caved in. Wasn't happening.
Anyways back home. Grille off, 10mm socket, 10 minutes and job was done. 3 x 10mm bolts on each headlight. Undo, pull forward, full access to everything. How I've always been doing it!
Haha you're a cruel bastard, hilarious.

get to work this morning. Patrol is covered in black goo, take a sniff, diesel oil. All up the inside of the guards, sprayed up the rear of the vehicle.
Heck, what's let go me thinks.
look further, more oil, not so much on the passenger side.
look further, it's sprayed up the front of the front wheel arch.
Me thinks, hmm, that really can't happen, it should all be blown backwards, not to the front of the front wheel arch.
Down on knees, dry as a desert underneath.
Then I thinks, remember that B double parked on the side of the road, no one around, middle of nowhere, I bet he's blown a hose.
MONTH OF FREEDOM!!!!!!

Managed to get my greys online $50 welding bench purchase off my trailer solo. It fits in perfect, and the vice it came with is bloody awesome. It's a 150mm dawn Australian made vice. Hoomungus!!
Should give me a nice safe area to practice welding without burning my shed down.http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/05/61.jpghttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/05/62.jpg

That is a great pickup Nic. The vice alone is worth a hell of a lot more than what you paid for the whole package.

Far out I knew it was worth the $50 I paid but didn't realise how much! Ripper thanks for the encouragement to look it up lolhttp://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...2021/05/63.jpg

It's a ripper mate. I looked for aged for a good Dawn vice but people want $500 for an old rooted one. A mate ended up giving me an old Record vice made in England. It originally belonged to Terry Brain who was a motor mechanic and top VFL player in the 1930s.

That's awesome mate, I really know nothing about them but if they are Aussie they must be great! To be fair for all the surface rust etc the action is still smooth, im impressed compared to my Chinese ones. Still $500 is alotta money for a rooted one.

I read that and thought, H20 must be something like WD40. [emoji848]
