  1. Careful mate, next thing you know you will be labelled as a Conspiracy theorist.
  2. Haakon, my oldest has been sick for 7 weeks now. Fever and cough.
  3. Kira turned 1 year old on the 12th November. Nutty and on it in the woods, then chilled out at home. Speaking to others who own them, it is a trait they all have. Problem is we have a lot of snow and ice in Norway and it makes wood and walking less relaxing than without the ice. If she gets a smell she is off and strong as hell. I am like a water skier getting dragged along, unless I go over on my arse LoL. Makes the walks interesting though. BUT proper chilled in the house, apart from the puppy moments in a big dogs body.
  4. Well, well. Hello Sailor !
  5. That’s it! If I can’t order, have it delivered and then subsequently lose a camo heater, then I am leaving Norway! Shit country anyway.
  6. They are all unavailable when I click the links.
  7. Are you gonna get the camo one? You might not be able to find it though.
  8. I’ve been trawling my way through Yellowstone with Kevin Costner, 1883 and 1923. They casting is really good. 1883 and 1923 being prequels. Harrison ford and Helen Mirren play the Duttons in 1923. The script writing is on point and the two just flow together. 1883 is the origin story of the journey out west. Some great casting as well. Sam Elliot amongst others. When I grow up I think I wanna be a Cowboy.
  9. what are we supposed to be looking at here? Apart from a picture of your Garfield wallpaper.
  10. Should have just shouted it mate. If the shoe fits...
  11. How do you take your coffee? I like coffee black and strong, like my men!

    An older Subaru Forester? Estate, so saws and tools can be chucked in. Very good off-road. We had one when I first moved to Norway and it never got stuck in the snow.
  13. Isn’t that like the pot calling the kettle black? Hibiscus tea with honey vs sticky toffee pudding flavoured coffee. That particular fight has no winners, they both deserve to lose! As do the people requesting them.
  14. NDT Non Destructive testing of welds etc in pipeline engineering, amongst other things.
  15. Why not do your rope access qualifications? With your welding experience I would think the money would be very good once you get your climbing hours in and progress levels. The would always be the option of NDT, again good money.
  16. A man was looking for a place to sit in a crowded university library. He asked a girl, "Do you mind if I sit beside you?" The girl replied, in a loud voice, "NO, I DON'T WANT TO SPEND THE NIGHT WITH YOU!" All the people in the library started staring at the man, who was deeply embarrassed and moved to another table. After a couple of minutes, the girl walked quietly to the man's table and said with a laugh, "I study psychology, and I know what a man is thinking. I bet you felt embarrassed, right?" The man responded in a loud voice, "$500 FOR ONE NIGHT? .... I`M NOT PAYING YOU THAT MUCH!" All the people in the library looked at the girl in shock. The man whispered to her: "I study law, and I know how to screw people."
  17. Three dogs were sitting in the waiting room at the vet. The Black Labrador asked the yellow Labrador "So why are you here?" The yellow Lab replied, "I'm a pisser. I piss on everything....the sofa, the curtains, the cat, the kids. But the final straw was last night when I pissed in the middle of my owner's bed." The black Lab said, "So what's the vet going to do? " "Gonna cut my nuts off," came the reply from the yellow Lab. "They reckon it'll calm me down." "And why are you here?" the Yellow Lab asked the Black. The Black Lab said, "I'm a digger. I dig under fences, dig up flowers and trees, I dig just for the hell of it. When I'm inside, I dig up the carpets. But I went over the line last night when I dug a great big hole in my owners' couch." "So what are they going to do to you?" the Yellow Lab inquired. "Looks like I'm losing my nuts too," the dejected Black Lab said. The Black Lab then turned to the Great Dane and asked, "Why are you here? "I'm a humper,"said the Great Dane. "I'll hump anything. I'll hump the cat,a pillow, the table, and fence posts, whatever. I want to hump everything I see. "Yesterday my owner had just got out of the shower and was bending down to dry her feet, and I just couldn't help myself. I hopped on her back and started hammering away." The Black and the Yellow Labs exchanged a sad glance. "So, its nuts off for you too, huh?" The Great Dane said, "No, apparently I'm here to get my nails clipped! "
  18. They are pretty popular here Joe. Probably due to the many reasons I mentioned in my post earlier. I see 10-20 VW ID Buzz’s everyday. Signwritten as plumbers, sparks, chippies and landscrapers. Also a lot of the caddy sized vans. There are lots of tax perks as well for having lease vehicles and registered as ‘Varebil’ or work truck.
  19. Yes it is definitely down to fit. The fact I get the Pfanner a in long leg do it for me.
  20. Yes, you still get the best rates on the road using the apps. But once it is setup you just use your phone and it doesn’t take long. I also have an Audi charge card which is a monthly invoice.
  21. I’ve had an Audi Etron 55 for over two years now. Purely a family car. Not been a bother at all. Charges quicker than other with the Eessee box we have installed. Get just under 4 hundred KM on full charge. Only usually charge to 80% for daily use. The infrastructure we have here in Norway is geared for electric, cheaper parking, sometimes free, get to use bus lanes and cheaper tolls. If just had the 30000km checkup service which was free as part of the deal when I bought it. It is plenty fast and has loads of torque when motorway driving and generally German Audi build quality and finish. Very happy with it and would have another.
  22. Pfanner arborist. Cost more but last longer.
