Ha, you forgot to calculate the weight of that farkin brick you put on top of the tank didn`t ya. Big mistake that one Geoff. ;)
-
Wow!! And we're not even half way to the shed yet!!! :D
-
You sure you haven't upset another customer Geoff.....they look more like bullet holes. ;D. Talking about putting jobs off, now that I'm off crook, my missus reckons I can do all these jobs around home...on my crutches of course....they never give up do they.

Surely you could grind the gal off and weld it up Geoff! J

Geoff, this obviously solves the mystery of why the Broadford track was so wet the other week. ;D

Suddenly at 4.30 this arvo there was no longer any H20 in our taps.
How much per kilo do they pay for rust nowadays :D

Don’t they know that bullets will just put my schedule further behind.
Just give up on the hypochondriac stuff and go back to work, you will get more rest there. ;D

There was actually a large plank on top of the tank, you can just see it in the top photo along with the crowbar next to the tank.
They ended up down the paddock (It’s now near the chook shed :o), glad I wasn’t next to it when it let go, 10,000 litres has some force behind it, I have a tiny inkling now of what Japan went through.
It was only last week that I was standing next to it tapping it with my knuckles to see how full it was :o
I heard the bang from the workshop but didn’t pay much attention to it as we often hear explosions from Pucka.
Noticed a lot of birds squawking at the time though which did strike me as odd, then my son came to tell me the bad news
It was probably a finch or something that landed on the tank that tipped it over the edge. ;D

Looks like that new area you were getting ready for the new tank is going to be fast tracked ;D If you need a hand to get the new tank into its home I am happy to help out.
Cheers Mick.

I reckon you'll need a tractor and tow rope to retrieve old faithfull from the chook shed! Was he standing next to the tank when it popped? That would have come as a bit of a surprise.....

Huey Lewis.. "the power of lo oops Water!! ;D
I had a concrete tank with cracks all over it. every fix was $5K >:(
bought 2 new plastics for $4.5K and now have a fab concrete garden shed I can ride the mower around in. ideal!
You've only got 2 watch funniest home vids to see the power of water when released suddenly... some germans in ww2 remember all to well!

What's wrong with the tank? Nothing some cable ties and duct tape couldn't fix!
