I was thirsty and desperate

i was out the front and this bloke was sifting through the curbside collection...he kept looking over at me so as you do i said"everything o.k mate?

he says..

"my dad built that house and we grew up there"

so i invited him in and he told us all the history of the house...he was quite emotional by the end of it,,obviously brought back a few memories of his parents..

so anyway he tells me he was looking for an old monitor for his p.c...in the curbside collection..so i gave his a flatscreen the babies dont use anymore...he was well chuffed...

later in the day theres a knock at the door,its him,with photos of the house,the original plans,,and the original contract.. 5496 buck it cost to build our house....

You must have been, as it wasn't even Guinness. I think it was Stella.

There's a few times I've had those acts come back & bite me:
An elderly lady once asked me if I would "Use up the rest of those tiles" by tiling over her vanity. I pointed out it was totally impracticable as the existing surface was peeling, loose paint with rotten timber behind, I explained there must be a leak. She couldn't pay me anything but "would I still just tidy it up, the leak had been fixed" I caved in did the job, then, 6 months later, I'm back there because the free tiling I did had come unstuck & her son threatened to ring the QBSA. He even wanted me to compensate him for having to ring me & a plumber to fix the leak

Blowing up Pauline Hanson. It would be an act of kindness to an old dog.

Wrong thread!

Please explain....

I think she means there's dog in that there burger and if she was blown up, the dog would be saved. However you have to read the thread on blowing something up to truly get the point.

Freeing humanity of Pauline 'I didn't come by boat' Hanson would be a random act of kindness to the whole world.

Thank you MP. I would hate for my comment to be construed as 'off piste'.

I lost my wallet in Victoria Sq, Christchurch (NZ) while on lunchbreak.
Wasn't even aware I'd lost it until the local police station called me to report that a tourist had picked it up and handed it into them.

I managed to track down the guy and sent him a thank-you letter

Of the many things I have done I recall I was once in a queue behind a little girl who was buying ice lollies and didnt have enough money so I made up the rest of the amount. And I've given a lift to a young asian girl who signalled to me to stop, I advised her to be careful as not everyone is trustworthy. I like to live up to my reputation ( self made) of nicest member!

Not something that happened to me but something that happened to my dad.

He was driving up to Monkey Mia when he ran out of fuel. A very kind couple stopped, asked him if he was ok and providing him and his then wife with water, drove him to the nearest petrol station and then drove him back to the car so they could continue on their journey.

You didn't kill her, drive into the outback and dump the body?

How is this country meant to maintain it's reputation?

Sorry, she caught me on a good day! Plus it was in my new car and I wouldn't want any claret on it! And she obviously hasn't heard of Rosemary West!
