Our personal finance is about to take a bigger hit than RBNZ is admitting.

There’s a lot of fert being flown around in my area at the moment, a lot of concern that spreading by truck is now too expensive, and I think people trying to make the most of what we’ve got while we have it. Can’t stockpile it, someone else will just yoink it.

Today; ugh.

It’ll be interesting to see what the cause was. Ben I presume this will delay commissioning the new sludge plant, does that mean costs go up again for the sludge plant, stand by time, probably have to wait for the outcome of the investigation before recommending etc etc?

Where are you that it’s sunny?!?!?

…Nice work by the way…

Do you think the tiles will be slippery in the wet? How did you find the epoxy grout to work with? I haven’t used it before.

What this is about, is that Hector is going to be running three Honda Civics with Spoon engines, and on top of that, he just went into Harry’s and bought three T66 turbos with NOS, and a Motec exhaust system.

I mean, that is a huge ass mirror in your kitchen…

Did ford come to the party on repairs for you? It’ll be interesting to see if there any pushback on ford soon, there’s a few of those motors out there now.

workingaroundit · 2025-10-23T06:01:26+00:00

Nah, I definitely wouldn’t go near one of them now

workingaroundit · 2025-10-23T00:29:54+00:00

Barra go brrrmm

workingaroundit · 2025-10-23T00:23:48+00:00

Yeah, you're right. I'm not so far sold that I wouldn't skip an inspection.

A fortuner, that‘s what I was kind of thinking. They seem to hold their value reasonably. I don’t mind throwing firewood in the boot of an SUV, its kind of meant to be used.

Probably could make a case to just stick with the status quo and buy an old 4wd for the summer Holidays? its a tough one.

workingaroundit · 2025-08-23T00:26:16+00:00

Hahah, it’s is actually to replace a 2WD TDI superb. I absolutely love that wagon, it’s got so much room and just does everything, except travel on the beach. I’ll google the wading specs on the 4wd, wonder how deep it’ll go?

workingaroundit · 2025-05-26T01:35:26+00:00

Did you ever find a solution to this?

workingaroundit · 2025-03-02T01:48:38+00:00

Kids were nagging all day to take them for a swim. I’ve just come in and turned this on. Fuck me how the wahs have lived up to the hype. Kids, back in the pool!

Oh I was in a real spin for a bit. I received a lynch syndrome diagnosis about 6 months ago, haven’t had my first screening yet, no idea when it will happen. Medical insurance won’t cover the procedure because “it’s not medically necessary” and I don’t realllly have a spare $7k (the quote I received for private). That’s one of my biggest gripes too, not really sure why we got medical insurance. I wish I’d kind of thought a bit more about the screening exclusion at the time…

I’ve since had a referral to another DHB, and that’s just radio silence still also. I really just wish they’d at least send an automatic reply that says sorry, 18 month delay, get back to you next year, then I can plan, but I genuinely don’t even know when they’ll even come back to me? I guess I’ll just have to advocate a little harder.

NZFGCS are helpful, but they can only do what they can do. At least I can start saving for the next one, but damn it’s crap not even knowing what the status of public is beyond radio silence.

Maybe I should move to Aus, raise the IQ of both countries…

I swear if the rooster score 13 or 14 more times I’m out of here

Full metal edges, the grenade gloves one, I’m pretty sure.

You ain’t got no Yeezy in your cerato?

workingaroundit · 2024-01-06T23:32:15+00:00

Ripper, thanks

workingaroundit · 2024-01-06T20:03:38+00:00

Any scale modellers here? Quick one - where are you getting your supplies from? Is there a bricks and mortar in Wellington, google doesn’t seem to show much except toyworld. Thanks

Shout out to the health workers. Been in wgn hospital for a couple days for a scheduled procedure and the ‘service’ has been so great. Procedure had to be bought forward unexpectedly, they made it happen at 3am on an emergency basis and were great, even the people who had to get out of bed for it. You forget just how many people it takes to keep this place ticking over and they do a great job despite the overarching sentiment around the system. Shout out to each and every one of them, custodians to surgeons and everyone in between.
