Just to remind everyone of the list as it stood back on page whatever. Does anyone want to make additions or amendments?

The Women's Australian Open will have a rare six-way playoff after a dramatic finish at Royal Melbourne today.

We're into the wrong sport.
 
Beepers, plenty of building/plumbing work available in Christchurch ATM. City rebuild getting underway. You could be plumbing up new houses and repairing bent ones there for the next 10 years if you want.
 
Bert - "I'm not dying, it's just a cold"

Sounds a bit like one of the four lies men tell:

  • It's just a cold sore
  • I'll respect you in the morning
  • The cheque's in the mail
  • I promise I won't come in your mouth

Secondly, The Girl With a Dragon Tattoo in English is unnecessary, inaccurate, homogenised but is still worth a watch.
Thirdly, I'm not sorry. Oh and I'll travel anywhere in the world right now as a plumber, gasfitter, roofer, welder, hydraulic engineer, **** it, clued in labourer even to earn some money if you'll have me. Underwater or in a bosun's chair if you will. I am but grist for the capitalist mill right now.

Here is some money on offer.

Interesting idea. Did a bit of a google search today which wasn't so promising, but might try a few phone calls. Gotta be better than being forced to a mining town here.

How's the all-grain brew tasting?

Here's one - http://laserplumbing.co.nz/contact-us/careers/

Fletcher Building have contracts for a lot of the major rebuilding work, might be worth calling their HR department.

I have about 8 bottles left of the blonde ale brew. It worked out very nicely, and I'm definitely loving the hop heavy brews.

Look for these if you're into your hops big time - Hop Zombie and Armageddon IPA (6.66%, the number of the yeast)

I have just discovered rum and raisin Tim Tams with dark chocolate. I may have to review my previous dislike of Tim Tams. /img/vbsmilies/smilies/smile.gif
