Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

I wonder when they'll develop the thingy that changes sun light into diesel or petrol ..... nah, fuel stations have been everywhere you could possibly need one since time began, they'll never get sparkitricity stations for electric vehicles within driving distance ......

T1,
They developed the sunlight-to-diesel system AGES ago!
Sun fell on plants which grew bigger; dinosaurs ate the plants; dinosaurs wiped out by meteor strike, fell down & got covered with dirt, decomposed and VOILA!
Instant diesel!!
After humans came along we drilled holes in the dirt to get to it. Sold the rougher stuff as diesel and boiled it a bit to make petrol.
Simples! 😁
I'm guessing petroleum production engineering isn't one of you fields of excellence. You would have been better going with the sun shining on palm trees or vegetable crops with palm oil or vegetable oil extracted from the fruit/seeds to make bio diesel ... shorter sunlight to diesel path :lol: But solar recharging the battery pack would still be a lot faster than the bio diesel method ;) and a lot cheaper as well ....

Good Morning All. Clear blue sky here, 21*. I managed to get some mowing done yesterday arvo before it began raining. I will wait until later in the day to mow that which is still wet and after that I will leave it all to Sean to maintain until February :) I am looking forward to Monday evening, flying out to Abu Dhabi to meet up with Julie, having not seen her since late August. My expected arrival time is 5:05am Abu Dhabi time so I may have to wake her up.

Good morning everyone. We had a heavy shower of rain overnight, but its overcast with a hint of sunshine now.
Bandit got a bit of a surprise yesty, we took him to the local dogwash. Not his favourite place. We then went for a bit of a drive and popped in to see Ray and Joy (Greynomad) and had a cuppa and scrumptious cake that Joy had made. It was a lovely way to spend the afternoon.
I dunno what's on the agenda for today yet. Time will tell. Have a great day everybody, safe travels if you are out and about.
Cheers
David

Dave & Terrie,
It was great to meet my ‘other bootlast supplier’ again after such a long break since the gathering at ‘Muckinupin’. 😁 (No water leak to fix this time!)
We’re heading off shortly to Kmart to grab a ramp like yours. Other shopping will also take place… but thanks for the demo.
Our girls loved having visitors too. I hope Bandit enjoyed his introduction to greyhounds…
You’re welcome to come over again before heading home.
Regards & God bless,
Ray
