Probably best not to attempt to move it on a windy day

Unless they absolutely, positively, had to get there overnight. ;)

SAUCE

Eeew. :lol2:

Every school kid got the Dust Bowl basics of how the pioneers plowed up the prairie grass, and when droughts came, the persistent wind blew away the soil.
This is why...

Surfing in style, on recycled wine bottle corks...

Is that air or resin between all those corks? If it's resin, it's an awful of of extra weight just to look cool when backlit. I'm guessing its for decoration and not use.

The site isn't clear on that, or exactly what they use, but the L, XL, and XXL weigh 12kg, 25kg, and 18 kg.

Bugger. I've just bought one of those.

Without the handcuffs.

they're there. you just can't see them. yet.

One day, Carruthers, you'll download an app, and, if it's quiet enough, you'll hear a subtle *clink*. That'll be the cuffs snapping shut.

Gulp. Anyone wanna buy a smartphone? :eek:

As yet I haven't become a slave to the gizmo and I'm finding it very useful.
I've got a new number so the ambulance chasing claims companies don't bother me anymore.
Dad can get hold of me when some dire domestic emergency strikes and I am not within shouting distance. If I spot any problems with livestock I can phone the farm manager and not worry about credit disappearing at the rate of £0.40 ($0.60) a minute and I can also keep him informed of the activities of any observed rogues, vagabonds or all purpose ne'er do wells in the area.
Apart from that there is the question of keeping in close touch with my small, but very select, social circle. Ah, the advantages of an ex-directory number.;)

I remember how my ex was super condescending to me in 1992 as I drove specifically to the gas station that, early on, had card swipe at the pump. "You'll do anything to avoid a moment of human contact," she said. "It's not human contact, it's gas station attendant contact," I replied.

I would like to know, now, if my ex ever drives around looking for a gas station where they don't have card swipe at the pump.

Chained to the technology? No. We have adapted to the new way of life.
