hahah as sum of u may kno, i sumtimes dont think b4 i act...
well one day i did an oil change on the blade, took the old oil round the back of the garage & dumped it on a heap of weeds..thought nothing of it...
until 3 weeks later it PISSES down...and the shed floods..and the whole shed is covered 2 inches deep in oil & water.....ooops...
so i had to go get a few loads of sand, mop it all up & put sand down outside...
also got yelled at lots by J...
so needless to say we now pour all the oil in a drum & take it & dispose of it thoughtfully....

Where the hell did you get axminster for your shed?
Is it a real Axminster or is it only Tufted Broadloom?
Do you guys even know the difference between Axminster, Tufted Broadloom, Wilton, Fusion Bonded, Electrostatically Flocked or Needlepunch?
& how do I do the cool Jester Smiley? ?
That would be cool as it's the Court Jester!! As in Carpet Court!!
I have carpet & u'lay offcuts to lie on when working on the car, but a big piece for the bike I don't!

Carpet Court AAAGGGHHH god that pinhead irritates me no end. If ever there was a good reason to throw a brick thru the telly, he provides it !!
Gizmo you have the best handle on carpets I have ever seen.
My parents gave me all the old loungeroom carpet when they upgraded a couple of years ago, expecting me to use it in the kids bedrooms. The look on the old mans face was priceless, when he saw it all out in the shed doing duty as a big drip-tray

Dude that is a REAL WOVEN AXMINSTER! I have only ever sold a bedroom of that stuff, about 5M cost about $2k from memory.
I forgot the Westminster carpet thanks for reminding me, same look stuff now is called Tretford it's Irish I think? & is made from goats hair as opposed to wool. It's actually 80% Goat Hair, 15% Nylon & 5% Viscose.
It's 2m wide has a coolcolour range & is reasonably expensive. Joins really well in the length, but they look crap on the side joins in my opinion.
As for the CARPET COURT JESTER, Well he's cool, You might hate him, BUT do you REMEMBER HIM? I saw a few of the new ad's Court are going to be playing this Year using him & they are good.
The new Wool ad he does is funny.
& BTW if you hadn't guessed I turn-up for a COURT store. TOP PEOPLE!

Carpet in the garage was good until I bought a new door and decided because it cost so much I would paint it myself to save some money(feeling a bit guilty about how much I wasted on one stupid door. Must have been made from some exotic extinct species tree) Anyway take forever at the paint shop organizing the paint, get home, take just a couple of strokes with the brush and drop the whole can all over the carpet. Horrible thick sticky glug all over the place so I decided to cut a dirty great piece out of the carpet. Figured it would be better to have a big hole in the carpet than have to walk around the messy bit for the next 6 months while it dried off. Very successful day. Worked out better than the time I decided to spray over an unsightly patch in the duco on my old Falcon. Got all excited about doing it but couldn't be bothered being sensible about it so got out my spray can of white paint, couldn't get the lid off the can, got it off but accidentally got it all over my nice black top, sprayed it on the big ugly maroon patch on the front guard, had a few runs in the paint, wiped it with a cloth but it was windy. Things got messy, even managed to get cat hair stuck all over it. But it looked cool. I should have been a tradey.
