For some reason, I've gone off coffee lately (instant, pods or espresso). A cup of tea feels so right for me at the moment.

Going to Bunnings to deliver 2 pallets of goods, I arrived at 1.55pm and left Bunnings at 5.05pm.. Grrrr, oh well, getting paid by the hour so can't complain to much... There has to be a better way.


This is what I saw when I rocked up: He was unstrapping to be unloaded, the forklift op was on lunch break. Why is there only one forky?




This is what was behind me...

Yes comes & goes with me too, but this is my longest run on coffee ever!

End of saga. I did get a response from Autopro today (24/6/2024) that reads:


"Hi one man,

Our apologies if you have not heard anything back about the issue.

We have followed it up to the team and requested for updates.


Regards,
Danilyn"


Hmmm, nice engrish

I have a few bits & pieces on my non returnable "disappointment shelf"... (:

Consider yourself lucky you are on an hourly rate, where I work, I've seen owner drivers sitting for up to 12 hours at times to be loaded, and no, they don't get paid for it, if they do get demurrage rates, it is pittance.

While I had the day off away from home, thought I would colour match some wider rear 12 slotters i bought to the existing S pac ones on the car.

So into Repco why, why did I go there ? They reckon they sold the same colours as Duplicolor (DSF 30) tins.

This is the lid sitting on my wheel. Not bad I thought, probably happy until I get the right stuff.



and painted, not remotely like their lid colour. Thanks, probably be another 3 years before I walk into another Repco.



Supercrap, can't find the colour code for Goldrush and lost the Duplicolor franchise to Autobarn/zone.

Looks like a wait until the next trip to Albury or Shepp depending on where we'll be then.
