Went and bought a new garden hose today.

Was amazed at the fact that I could spend anywhere between $18 and $105 for a 30m length of garden hose.

So, anyway tossing it all up, and figuring in the wife's staff discount, I ended up going with the $105 (retail) option.

Got it home and was reading the pack more carefully and noted that it has a 30 year warranty.

So there you go, I'm 52, that was probably the last time I'll ever buy a garden hose, wish I'd noted it in the shop; we could of had a wee ceremony.

Next time round I'll probably be in the market for a catheter. Must remember though to keep my proof of purchase receipt somewhere safe for the next 30 years.

 

Can you leave the hose to me in your will

Cheers, SB

 

You're the same age as me, you'll have about as much use for it in the "Happy Addie Hills Retirement Home and Refuge for the Terminally Confused" as I will once I'm gone.

You can only have two possible uses, either selling short lengths to the other inmates (sorry; I mean residents) for whipping the a55es of young caregivers,

or alternatively;

making some kind of plumbed in, mass feeding station that supplies Bombay and tonic direct to the other inmates (sorry; I mean residents) rooms.

Either way (whilst I totally condone both activities) I don't see this as a totally appropriate use for the last garden hose that I will ever buy.

Sorry Seb, you're out of my will (again).

 

 

Need moar hose gifs.

 

$105 for a hose ?!!

You've never had a Rottweiler have you.....................
I have


and 5 garden hoses............................
I think he liked to make them spray a bit

before he bit them into 25 separate pieces and brought me the "best" one.

I'm well past expensive hoses, boat trailer electrical cables, even car mudflaps..........

Cheap is good.

 

I'd have gone for it too. Besides, it's a known fact that riding our particular bike extends your youth by many years. So you should be able to use that warranty.
Btw I just tuned 56 yesterday and I'm YOUNG!!!

 

Happy birthday for yesterday ranchome. May there be many, many more!

Did anyone get you a 30 year hoe?

Cheers, SB

 

Sorry, but I had to at that
That must be my 42 y/o dirty mind at work

 

Perhaps it's an age thing. I sat and looked at that and just felt like checking in to the Adelaide home for irretrievables. I just don't get it any more, worse still, I don't care. Slippery slope, here I come.....

Strewth, who did that to my header? I thought I'd dreamed that. Is it really true.........?
