Stone the bloody crows, what a way to start the day.
I get up and find there's a ruptured water pipe in my backyard, a bit of sweat, swearing and Aussie Ingenuity, 2 pair of pipe wrenches later and I've got that one sorted, then I change from my work boots into my favorite around the house thongs ( flip-flops to you Yankies) and get a 'blow-out' in them, the bloody strap broke loose.
The only thing that could make today even worse is to get visit from the Mormons.
