Never Gas or Electricity, that'd be scary!

Plenty of dodgy shallow water pipes, only once hit street side of the meter, that was bad, cant stop it till a plumber locateds the main underground, fortunately was in the naturestrip, they can be under the road

PLenty of dodgy shallow phone lines too.

I usually wear the repair if it was obvious and we just stuffed up, if it was obscure they can deal with it.

Pays to have a few plumber mates

Finished up a Euc prune today, started it a week back... Got ALL the way out there and forgot my helmet but my dad had his. So I kept away from the chipper and carefully removed two of the last lower branches with my handsaw... When doing my collar cut the width must of been an easy 6 inches! And that wasn't around either... Man I'm glad that I finished up the leader collar with a chainsaw the day I started it.

Only crappy thing was, the AZNs next door were fascinated I was in the tree = photo's galore...

Hmm hmm? what what? What's this DeepHeat stuff you're talkin about?

At my age there's no reason I should need to ask questions like that, but some days I sleep in just because my back is too sore. Any remedies are good!!

I told Ekka already, but a couple weeks ago I fell off the tailgate of what you folks call a ute and landed on my lower back. I'd have been better off landing on my head! My back aged from 24 to 56 in the span of a couple seconds. Switched from ratchet straps to cam straps after that.

Ken, Deepheat is a cream that puts heat into your muscles. I'm sure you have it there, prob just another name. Does wonders for my back. Be sure not to scratch your nads after applying it though!!!
