What does your day look like?

That's how my day started.

Sorry Dr @beeb , it was supposed to be three days working near Katunga by myself, getting shit done, and I 100% would have reached out. But the tractoring gods were not kind and it ended up being only one day on site, with one of my techs staying for the three days.

New achievement unlocked. Furthest distance driven in 5 working days = 2,683 km.

I've done 10 consecutive days! Each 6 days after the previous one. Need a holiday.
 
Picking up fluff, lots of fluff

Always a funny thing when the schoolies get their shovel on. A good berm needs to be steeper not necessarily higher...yet to the enthusiastic young mind it needs to be flatter and higher.
 
All the wind we had last week pushed all the leaves up against the fence, had to stuff as many of them as I could in the bin.

I hear you. The park across the road from our place just keeps on giving in the blown leaf and blown bark categories.
It was fun for the the first umpteenth times or so :D
 
I packed so many leaves in the green bin the bloody thing didn't empty. Shit.

Speaking of bins not emptying. Years ago some mates had a house party and had so many empty stubbies that they couldn't fit them all in the recycling bin whole.

So as they put them in the bin they smashed them with a sledge hammer. They got them all in, but didnt realise garbage truck hydraulic systems have a pressure bypass system that only allows bins up to a certain weight.

You can imagine their surprise when they found the bin still full when they got home from work. They tried twice (watched the second pick-up) and realised their mistake 🤣

I was worried about that, but they emptied it this morning.

Stuck an old set of BMX alloy handlebars in the bin when I was a kid, woke in the morning with the garbo yelling expletives, and the hydraulics jammed on the compactor. He finally gets the half crushed handlebars out and places them on our fence. Whoops.
