    It would have been the same country if the Scotts weren’t such a tough bunch and kicked the poms out.LOL

    My knowledge of history was taught to me by my grandfather and his name was McKinnon.

    I understand totally Mick one Scots Grandfather and one Fijian, as a result i really hate the Poms and the French, but not sure why.

    How many times did the english try before they suceeded, and they never fully subjugated the populace anyway.

    Hi Jeffro,
    do you have any/much with experience with TIG’s?

    Yeh a bit, we have done a lot of TIG work. I myself am not much of a TIG welder though but can do enough for the odd job here and there.

    Can’t you teach them to be milked at 9am Aaron? It’s just occurred to me, why do you have to milk them so damn early?

    12 hour rotation so they can have time to produce the milk
    if i startrd at 9 & finish at 12 thats what the arvo shift would be
    some farms here have 2 shifts of milkers (they milk soooo many 600?) the cows are more like battery hens ,they rarely see a paddock

    I am a ceramic tiler who decided it was time for a change after a bike accident in 2000 and did some delivery work and some disability support work looking after a young bloke with autism for the last 3 and half years, but due to constant harassement from a staff member who had management wrapped around her finger have left that and had no luck so far finding a job so have gone back to my trade and ache so bad everynight:ohmy: but am enjoying the trade again (for now anyway:blink: )

    That’s NO Good to hear!!!

    what injuries did/do you have?

    i guess you have tried all the “magic/miracle ” creams, lotions, potions and oils.

    SAD to hear you were forced out of a job you enjoyed and that was a benefit to others!
