    well everything is just sitting waiting for water...pumps wood , plumbing, sump. I can start it tmrw but yes the plan is too use this free time to do something. Please dnt hold me to it. :)

    Health is perfect thanks. Still got fish, still love the hobby but just not doing anything with that tank. Even considered selling it and getting a bigger one, lmao.

    IT Manager, so I can pretty much do everything remotely from my laptop. The joys of technology.

    I have been at home for 3 days with the kids. They are already getting fidgety and bored
    My 12 y o n particular is getting anxious about this. Had to have a long chat with her to try and calm her down

    Not sure how the governments thinks this will be sustainable for 12 Weeks +

    I’ve been stuck at home less than 24 hours and murder has nearly been committed multiple times. Can’t even go for a run because my hip is stuffed and well, I just don’t run

    Nope, the hillstream tank is eating up my entire budget.
    @BradK can always donate it to me in CT and deliver free of charge, if he really wants to get rid of it. Open to that kind of thing for sure :lol:

    Al the prep work the last 3 weeks the 17 hours shifts and the 24000 steps per day can't preper you for when they walk in with your kit and the 2 white envelops where your letters and security clearens and your corona virus seport persone permits are in. It is then when it hits you like a brick wall and your realise this shit is realy happening.

    I work for IPP in the Wind Turbine Industry. Enjoy my work and have permits to travel anywhere within SA but unfortunately today I had brake failure on my company bakkie and rolled it badly. Lucky our company policy with travelling in the lock down only allows 1 person in a single cab. I was fortunate to come out alive and just some major muscle pain and a pooping headache. So now I have been grounded till end of lockdown and new vehicle arrives.

    Some pics of what is left of my bakkie.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
