It's all those illegal immigrants, coming over here and drinking all our water.

As no one works a full week in the month of May unless the feast days fall on a weekend, this'll be fun!!

And of course if the feast day falls on a Thursday or a Tuesday, then they also take the day off between that and the weekend, state offices included.
How the flip can they still have higher productivity than the UK?

Probably very good at manipulation of figures than our government is at squandering.

So, I woz using my combined weedwhacker /mulcher today and it kind of stopped, seemed like it was out of fuel Quick look in the tank showed a little still left, bit weird, nevertheless filled it up. No start.

I thought it was flooded so left it for half an hour then went back and tried again.
Still no luck, so decided it was prolly flooded so looked at the spark plug prior to taking it out.
The plug connector was not connected, and on close inspection was slightly busticated inside.
So I shoved it back on best I could and started it.
It ran fine, so I used it to finish the job and then put it back in the shed.
This flipping machine seems to be pretty indestructible.

I haven't made up a plug lead since my first Mini 850 in about 1973!
