Bro Tor, Lola's at HQ nurturing the newbies it's Zoe (Sin Nombre) here and she's already running the joint bossing Eddy and me about, she thinks it's Christmas, well it actually is. Understandable you got mixed up so how many pups is it have we got on the go now? Lets do an audit Lizzie, Charlie, Twiggy, Poppy and Toby then there's Lola, Eddy and Zoe. Those lambswool covers were made for the car about $400 (not off the rack) I just didn't like the light grey as back seat is black so they now suit the interior better being black. Huss who reads Data but doesn't post reckons I ripped my sister off getting the car for Zilch. Now onto the bike, at my age an electric bike was a consideration, I had been looking at $1800 to buy one but have too many dogs to feed. Just two weeks ago on my walk on some bastids hard rubbish on the nature strip a canny Scotsman spotted a bike on the pile, yep lucks a fortune so he wheeled it 3.5 kms home and has gone to work to restore it. What's that old saying one man's trash is another man's treasure. Photo's to follow. - Bro Macwollie

Ok Bro. Tor here's the bike project final update, Budget $100. I was going to get an electric bike ($2000) but with all these greyhounds in tow well I felt the means didn't quite meet the expense involved with a number of factors to consider.
A. News reports of these electric bikes catching fire whilst charging and burning down houses was a concern and as the house insurance had crept over $1000 I dropped it last September so I couldn't take the risk. B. The whole idea of riding a bike was for fitness so an electric seemed to be pointless if I need to pop down to the shops I'll take the car I've got 2 of the fuckers now.
Next project: Crisis! Bungyland has sprung a leak and requires new roof in and out, budget $700.00 Polypoprone one is 32 years old and is littered with holes going to go metal colour bond this time.

Boss hog lol, now thats funny mate, bit of a investment that one be worth a lot in a while you would think Bike looks great mate, thats a top job you could do some flipping its that good. Buy stuff from family for fark all, tidy up and bang here comes the money Kev we have had a few spanners in the works here at ebh. Long story short we have two bitches from different litters hopefully that will be racing over next 3 months or so, and a lovely dog puppy, Thats all that can be said on the matter so we look forward to that, Re your leaky roof bro pete, cant you just use that spray on stuff from tv? It can put a boat back together that stuff its that good

Bro. Tor "BOSHUG" they were a couple of female WWE Tag team champion wrestlers, their team colours were purple, the Emgrands had them on the Kia Picanto, an investment you ask? hardly I said to the Emgrands that's a risk the WWE will write a script that they'll have a punch up against each other and split, they did about 18 months after they got the plates and that was a couple of years ago. That spray on stuff is shit I had a can to fix a leaky pipe on the pool filter system useless the stuff you need is Selly's Aqua "Knead It" anyway some of the holes a possum could fit through (maybe they were the arseholes who made the holes or those cockatoos) and there are several. Had some luck on about $75 (Bunnings price) worth of framing timber I need for the Bungyland roof repairs. I noticed on my bike ride today a couple of km's from my joint some poor bastids back fence facing the bike track had been re built today after a fire (it looked like a BBQ had got out of control) and amongst the waste pile was just what the doctor ordered for Bungyland 90 x 45 & 70 x 45 brand new treated pine totaling about 10m in length. I told Dr Huss of the plan to sneak out in the Frenchie SUV and get em under the cover of darkness, he suggested I wear all black so he's now implicated as I did such on his advice and I got em at 11.30pm tonight. - Mockers

Well i thought it was boshog, so run with that bro pete then it wont be a waste of money, Rooting through waste piles hey well thats something to keep you busy in retirement, maybe ill pop that in the next newsletter as a retirement tip, Stealing well thats different of course so maybe a knock on the door and ask if you could have them instead of going all pink panther may have been the order of the day, just a suggestion He may have a car in the backyard for cheap for your next flip
Looking forward to seeing the fixed roof

Tor the old honor amongst thieves philosophy as I didn't know them it's mine so why knock on a door and ask how much for that $75 worth of timber you have dumped on a public highway EXTERNAL LINK now come on old chap by all means put it in what to do for extra income in your retirement days newsletter from a Scotsman's eagle eyes perspective. Gave the cars a run to the bush the last couple of Friday nights last night Traralgon Cup for return to that nasty incident with mud on my New Balance runners and the mess they left in the dunnies whilst cleaning them when I visited when they were building the new track, remember I donned a fluro vest to fit in (another tip for retirees look as you belong). Check the size of the fucking trophy it was about as big as the AFL Premiership cup and note MC's Van Der Matts dacks classic poo catches to rival those MC Hammer ones you bought from KMart all those years ago. EXTERNAL LINK A couple of Friday nights ago did the drive to Warragul hadn't been there since March 1973 some 51 years ago ( I think before you were born Tor ) to see my favorite dog "Half Your Luck" he had just won the Australian Cup at Olympic Park in Feb the good thing was I got to pat him as he was presented on the grass in front of the trot track after the Cup race they could do that in those days that's when I saw that he had a perfect black diamond on his head. EXTERNAL LINK Macwollie onto the Bungyland refurb now.

You didn't pinch the Collar & lead of "Half Your Luck" when you patted him back in 1973 Did you?

nah Dr H Ted had a tight grip on it, anyway I didn't have a greyhound at the time so no need for one. Did you do a stock take of your joint after my visit last August? don't worry you're safe honor amongst thieves syndrome but I did check the freezer for any Blasted Abba viles to no avail. - Mockers MacW

Well its looks like after a few leg presses the queen maybe making an appearance within the month, wont that be exciting and twiggy's not far behind either,
hows the rag and bone trade going bro pete picked up any good old building materials lately ? Bungy land finished yet?
You will like this one, my eldest went camping with 3 of his mates on the weekend, of course they took the jackeroo as its all bush where they go. Anyways they get back and it looks like they have had a big of accident, its ok they say just a few scratches, we hit a tree they said. Well I spose thats to be expected, but they didnt just hit a tree, they got wedged onto one and bent every single panel on the passgner side and broke the handles too. So of course I call the wreckers, how much for a door, $200 they say ,
Thats ok i think least I can get the handle as well. So I get there and theres a door there but no handle. So I say wheres the handle, well it dosent come with a handle , or glass, or or the interior. thats extra ok so how much for the handle $35, fark me really will you take $220 for the door and handle, no, ok I walked out of there. So now we have two wrecked cars due to the p plater that we are driving around.
PS - I have found these marathon dim sims at coles - steamed for 45 minutes they are almost as good as the cat bags in victoria, almost as good.

Tonight (Friday again) luck would have it riding the new bike there in front of me was a scrunched up Murphy's Blue Boy EXTERNAL LINK on the path so I've hit the anchors that hard I nearly went over the fucking handle bars, now the dogs and I will be feasting on a 1kg bag Marathon dimmies for din dins this Sat night. BTW Eddy & Zoe (the dogs) love em steamed topped with Kikkoman soy sauce. Still got to do a Bungy land make over photo report it's finished come up a treat. - Macwollie
