Young Thrash Driver 1020 Report post Posted January 28, 2016 Smashed my damn phone's screen. Replacement ordered, $155 down the drain. I stick with the cheap $20 candybar form phones. They suck, but this farmer once killed 3 bigger IP67 rated phones in a year 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gjm 3258 Report post Posted January 31, 2016 Trademe sellers. I offered more than what they wanted, only to decline and let the auction run. Only to put up a lower buynow for someone else a week later. Why? Not quite the same, but an item that didn't sell (no reserve, no bids) has been relisted twice. I offered a Buy Now at the start price, but apparently it's worth more than my offer. Oh well. Maybe I'll remember to bid this time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awakino gorge honestly heads should roll for that fk up. most cars can safely corner at least 20 or 30 over those speeds but your truck can't! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

allan 295 Report post Posted February 2, 2016 Cones, Road work 30km signs the whole nine yards and traffic doing as asked. The only trouble no humans not a sole this was about 9 in the morning return later on in the day about 1.30 still all decked out but not a sole to be seen. A road that has been re-chipped trouble is they didn't fix the dips and bumps first before doing the re-chipping Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A road that has been re-chipped trouble is they didn't fix the dips and bumps first before doing the re-chipping I read this and thought you meant Hingaia Road from SH1 west... Not if you live in Foxton, I expect. Hingaia Road has been subject to lane closures, one-way filters and more today, Right across the access to one school, and 200 yards from another. Just think how much easier it would have been if they'd done this a couple of weeks ago when school holidays were on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
