Yes indeed .... desperation triumphs over sloth!
Here's a couple more.
The AirCon in your car dies on the first day of a string of 35C+ weeks .... and all the service people are on holiday.
All the 100 octane in the fuel tank of your bike turns to vapour and the tank looks like the Goodyear Blimp!
You decide to hoon it up in front of several nubile wenches and kickstart the thing ..... the fuel vapour ignites first time round,
1100CC of Aprilia V-twin backfires and spits you over the bars .... you resolve to act your age! (for a week at least!)
All the birds cease to fly and become waterfowl .... usually in the shallow end of your pool.
The ones that venture to the deep end discover they are not and promptly drown .... their remains clog up the pool filter!
"Dried Fruit" comes straight off the tree.
The arsonists come out of hibernation .... cue "Twilight Zone" theme.
Four weeks on from the day your car's AC died you get it fixed at an outragous price ..... it rains and thunders for a week.
"United Energy" aka "Those Useless Bastards"
have three power spikes every 24 hours and you lose weeks of work on your PC. >
The week before the Grand Prix it becomes impossible to purchase a decent Sunblock .... Jafo has cornered it all in anticpation of the usual Albert Park 'ritual charred spectator fest'.
The Possum that died in your roof falls into the wall cavity ...the
North wall (naturally!) of your home .... luckily it disintegrates rapidly and you can move back after a week.
You return from a few weeks in Europe and arrive at 4.30AM wearing winter clothes .... it's 25C outside and the AC is not working in the International Terminal at Tulla .... >
Another bloody Possum expires in the same wall cavity!
The "Summer Nats" (run in Canberra??!!!) receive more TV coverage than any Grand Prix!
The one day that is not a 'Fire Ban' day, and the "Forecast" temperature is a comfy 25C, the one day you and some friends are burning some steaks, is the day your area is hit by one of those "Once in 100 Years" freak storms .....
even the tinnies get a wrinkle finish from the hailstones .... bugger!
And it's only the second week in January!
