So we now have to put back the old fridge, repack it and organise the right fridge to be delivered...ffs

Wonder what would have happened if we could get it in and installed? As this one was an upgrade on the one we have purchased.


Ok update time. Works out the handbrake ordered the wrong fridge :lol: to be fair the fridge we wanted has 5 different options and 4 of them would have fitted but the 1 that wouldn't is the one she ordered, its not overly clear on their website.

Anyway adjustments made and we get the right fridge delivered this afternoon, delivery guys advise again they can't fit thru door :evil: as they need 50mm (we had 45mm) clearance, I said you told me last time 15mm clearance, put that one down to the language gap. Their boss gets on the phone and I said Im happy to sign a waiver that any damage is on me, he says they can't do that.

*insert wife completely losing her ****

I then work out if we take our door off we get another 20mm of clearance, out comes the drill (tank god it was charged) and off comes the door. Fridge comes in and installed happy days. We paid $70 for them to remove the old fridge, they take it to the front door and it wont fit thru!!!! The handles, which dont come off, are the issue. :roll: no idea how we got the fridge into the house 18 years ago.



Delivery guys are well behind and have to leave old fridge with us, son and I get to work to take the doors off the fridge which is anotehr hassle but we get there then lift it up stairs and out of the house, it nows sits in the portico and Im about to ring the Good Guys to come pick it up again, as it is now out of the house the wife has cooled down.

I was quite happy with the old fridge and I did mention this to her when the toys were out of the cot.

Anyway beer time.

Ducted a/c not working. No power to the controller, checked the indoor unit fuse but OK, 0 V on the output side to the controller ( should be 16V).

Above my pay grade now, better get an expert in. :rolleyes:

Have done a Apple menu > Restart but not Ctrl+Alt+Del

Also replaced the fuse, @ $1.85 it was worth a shot.

Some people are just plain weirdos, I had to rip some tomato plants out yesterday and put new ones in as well as changing over a few pots of other vegies and transplanting them in the garden bed.

I went out to do it once the weather started cooling and was just in my jocks and thongs, I hear some rusting going on and noticed the couple behind me were up putting netting over their fruit trees, the weirdos waved, said hello and continued on their merry way.

:lol:

Stinking hot one morning last summer I get out of bed and go and jump straight in the pool starkers.

The neighbour is out farting around in the yard and hears me jump in, sticks his head over the fence and I quickly swim towards him and lean against the edge as we have a yarn. I start shivering at one point and he says "Mate, you should get out if you're that cold" I said "I can get out but you have to remember I've been in the pool".

"Righto, I'm off then"
