Don't use your fingers to hold marine carpet to wood while you wait for quick-grip adhesive to dry :-[

Tip 2.  When one has retired but one’s wife is still working, when the wife comes home after working a 12 hour shift, do not complain about what a hard day you have had, could not decide between having a cup of coffee or tea!  Especially when one’s wife is a nurse in the emergency department.   :-[     Kevin

When celebrating your 20th anniversary, do not say (after a couple too many ales) that you would have done less time for killing someone.  Luckily it was over ten years ago now, but I was not forgiven for a long period of time.  I did breakfast in bed for SWMBO for nearly 5 months after that one.

Do not continue to 'soldier on' while already injured.

I totally messed up and drilled a hole straight through some wood and straight into my middle finger.   Damn! those brand new drill bits are sharp.
While that finger was recovering... I trimming some fibreglass.... with a VERY sharp knife and holding with two fingers. slipped and nearly took the tip off my pointer finger.  Got two of them bandaged now.

I wonder how I'll damage another finger..... while escaping to the shed due to the wifes TV show selection.   Gawd! I'd better not even look at the saw or angle grinder for a few weeks ;)

When trail bike riding in 6 degree weather, don't do a tank slapper 5 minutes into your ride, landing butt first in a foot deep puddle, leaving yourself soaked and frozen for the rest of the day!


On the other hand my mate who was behind me is now adamant that those $300 helmet cameras are a bargin...

Ask the police nicely to book people who don't keep left unless overtaking and those that tailgate..................
If you ask them rudely they will find something you did wrong and book you for that

no leave them on the middle or right lanes....the left lane is less congested and you can normally sit on the speed limit....the right lanes are full of cars and always under the speed limit....

people real don't get it anymore do they...try being a truck driver and only given the 2 left lanes to go up a 3 laned hill and you have idiots sitting in the middle lane going slower the a B double in the left 'slow lane' in a low gear. And if your truck is doing 100 you still can't go into the 3rd lane "fast lane" even to just quickly over take that said fool as you are the one who will get the fine even if no other car is affected by the truck doing so....go figure

No matter how secure you think the metal jerry cans are, always REMOVE them before getting frisky with SWMBO.
Even though the nearest neighbors were 300 meters away I still got smiles in the morning when I went on my walk...

When filling your boat with 200 litres of fuel, make sure the bowser nozzle is in the fuel filler and not a rod holder ;D

OMG that hurt my ribs  ;D thats one big fuel tank you got there!!!!

I did have a bad experience filling the tanks on of all things, the old mans boat. Tought we'd do the right thing and fill up both tanks. I passed my mate the 'unleaded' bowser hose (only hose from that bowser). Walked up to the shop got a few odds & ends together and left them on the counter. The attendant and I returned to the boat knowing it will take some filling. Port side filled so mate passed the hose to the attendant who then filled the starboard tank. Once filled the attendant & I go up to do payment. I notice the attendant is trying to charge me for the higher priced diesel. I pull him up on it. He then says, NO! You just brought 500 litres of diesel.... "WTF!!!!
Long story short, and a lengthy argument. Best part was after that S#@T fight was sorted I still had to call to dad. Well he was so pleased when I told him I won 2 new 300L fuel tanks, filters, fuel lines fitment and filled with fuel. Once it was all fixed the a week later the marina called me to pick up dads boat. They had a final attempt at trying to get $$$ of me I smiled was polite and said just fix your signage on your bowsers (turns out he already had, bet next day) and reminded him that it was him that filled 1 of the 300L of the tanks....
Dad now knows truth, still put his cranky pants on but finally got over it.
