Lincolnshire Terrier
I once tried to train a Lincolnshire Terrier to play fetch.
The first day was fruitless, so the second day I thought I'd go through the charade of running after the ball my self, pick it up with my teeth and bring it back to the throwing spot.
But I couldn't get the dog to do it. The third day I again tried the same technique but to no avail.
The forth day I thought, Gezz is this dog just stupid or what? But not wanting to give up I continued with my charade... And then it happened, having retrieved the ball myself as I'd done 50 times previously
... the dog proved I was wrong in assuming it was stupid ... when I heard it say... Good boy - Good boy.
:-O
:doh:

:worried:

Joking aside, I'll be doing plenty of that tomorrow (today) crawling through an attic fixing one of the worst hack jobs I've seen. There are about 25 fly taps,
Meaning : making electrical wiring connections with wire nuts without putting them in junction box.
I just hope I make it out alive,...
Getting BOT I'd like to feed the idiot who did the work to the Lions. I'm quite serious. :|

I started last Friday, using my infrared thermal sensor on my electrical meter. The temperature in the attic was 145° F....
...
Joy.

Joe, you be very careful up in that attic with that high a temperature. Hopefully you have someone else in the house to aid you should anything bad happen. Drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. I am serious!

Yes, Joe, take precautions. :agree:
Can you lift a few roof tiles to ventilate, or is it corrugated iron?
An electric fan would help, but if you have the power off *-) :dunno:
