Post a picture of your pet

It would be pretty awkward for you if "the oppositions" house was actually asterix's house.

It would be even more awkward for the cat outside.

They aren't alternatives though, are they. Those are just new.

And probably worse quality than good old ones!

Those are the same as the 'old style' ones in the photo, except the trowel doesn't have the sustainable wooden handle of the one in the cat photo.

I've been in the construction industry since 1983 and as far as I know neither of those tools have been considered 'old style' as there hasn't been a 'new style' of either. Maybe the trowel you use in college has bluetooth and a wifi connection? Touch screen mallet?

Buster, (no longer with us

This could be a post for the 'before and after' thread.

Sadly Mollie is no longer with us and I miss her very much.

Here's my three

a 13 year old whippety dog and two 5 year old Greyhounds

All rescue dogs

And an attempt at an arty shot with the Whippet and Greyhound

Oh and this is one of the Greyhounds playing dead after I told her off for something

I am learning what goes into a house and its structure, not how to actually build the damn thing. That is what the trades do. I am going into the managerial side of things (well Civil Engineering to be exact).

I know, she adopted that box of her own accord so we let her have it. I couldn't resist the photo opportunity it gave.

Hmm... Time to roll out an oldie then...

Three engineers were talking about the nature of God,

The electrical engineer said "God is an electrical engineer. You only need to look at the way that the brain operates,the way the connections are made, the way that nerves carry signals around the body... God must have been an electrical engineer!"

The mechanical engineer said "God is a mechanical engineer. You only need to look at the skeleton, the way that the different bones fit together, the different densities, each made just strong enough to do what it needs to do, whether it's a bird or an elephant... God must have been a mechanical engineer!"

The civil engineer just said "Who else would put a sewage pipe n the middle of a playground?"

Loads of Native horses and ponies have 'Feathers' . It protects the legs from mud - more specifically mud fever which is a bacterial infection carried it it which is a nightmare to manage. especially if the legs have pink skin on them.
