After kicking my self in the butt for denting the hood on the caddy !!! See my post in caddy thread !

we cleaned the caddy and did the annual Taupo Xmas parade with our 2 grand children , and had a ball 

this was my grandsons first parade awake! As he was only one last year and slept through the whole parade !

This year he got to see it all and the park up afterwards included a festival and he really likes the fire trucks and the down hill derby carts  

we finished the day up by heading back to the club rooms and having a bbq and beers 

all in all a good day 🍻

 

 

Looked real hard N didn't see the dent in the Caddy hood. Nice pic's N thankz for sharing. Keep the grankids interested.

haha, ok, i will stick JustA 40 in a box for ya Wrongway, what the heck do i do with the other 59 ???

Its all Fitzy fault !!! this heat is coming from his Island 😡

Oh Wrongway, you will crack up at this !! you talk about shipping !!

Right now all the ports around New Zealand are not keeping up with the number of ships coming here with goods, check this picture of all the ships sitting waiting.

https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/ports-of-auckland-hiring-more-staff-to-help-with-unprecedented-demand-as-ships-wait-eight-days-before-being-processed/RYGWYMHQEWXA5GDIYKSLMDEFWY/

for some weird reason, we are in a boom, gdp is up, and people cant get enough of all sorts!!

in my world of plumbing and gas fitting, we cant get copper pipe, water heaters , brass fittings.

its all sitting on ships waiting to get into our ports

I am sure i have said about how busy we are... well everyone is i beleave. and its put a major demand on imported products.

we have all these people who cant leave nz that would normally go over seas and spend their money, and now cant... so they are spending it at home!!🙄

I can relate to that, as we would have gone to Hawaii and las vegas and it would have cost 10 k, now we cant go anywhere so that money  gets spent on other stuff... 

 Man its a crazy world at the moment 

Ok buddy, its really pretty simple. Ship me 40 and you say the heat is coming from Fitzy's island? So just put a label on the other 59 that says "return to sender". That way it gets shipped back to him with no charge to you!!! Done and done! 

Wow that's crazy bro. Looks like a parking lot! Its got to be good for the local economy though right?

that sounds like a plan wrongway, and we can bill fizty for the shipping of all that heat 

Got down to 42 degrees this morning here.

Haha lawman62, i asked the question and started the thread back when the whole of  new zealand was put into lock down to stop the virus..... it worked and we are very much got a throat hold on the bugger here👍 which has given us as much normality as you can without been able to leave the country🙄.

And its been a crazy old year, really looking forward to a break😋
