Drill a hole down through the cooktop, then deep clean your oven a la gynaecologist.

"One person died and one was injured following a crash on a highway in Tauranga this morning."

 

Sad news, but why is there a blurry photo of a Wellington ambulance?

Trick question, a saxophone may be a woodwind but it is often made of brass. Brass flute on the other hand is rhyming slang for a prostitute.

And why was the person injured following the crash? Presumably hit by the blurry ambulance.

Senecio: It is the latter. They only sell water to schools. If you find a Coke product in the school canteen that is not water then the school have sourced it themselves via Pak n Save etc….

It’s poorly worded but that is what they are trying to say.

 

They sell only water to schools.

 

 

 

It's not that hard but it is in the 'eats root and leaves department'.





Most of the posters in this thread are just like chimpanzees on MDMA, full of feelings of bonhomie, joy, and optimism. Fred99 8/4/21

From: https://www.stuff.co.nz/dominion-post/news/wellington/130660275/guns-n-roses-plane-hits-wellington-for-citys-biggest-postcovid-concert

 

I think they're missing a story in the last sentence of this paragraph...

 

"A Boeing 767-300 – believed to be used by Guns N' Roses – left Melbourne at 7.57pm on Sunday New Zealand time then touched down in Wellington at 11.02pm, according to Flightaware.com. Earlier images of the plane show it with the band’s livery but this was gone by the time it reached Wellington." What happened mid-flight?

Washable paint, and rained during the flight?🤣

Different actual plane - "this is not the aircraft you're looking for?"

 

Blown off in the wind - they didn't tie their decal on tightly enough?

Any more theories?

Unusual weather patterns in the Tasman sea. The weather was a month late. Because, nothing lasts forever, in the cold November rain.

Slightly off topic but I think todays headline about "Bali Bonk Ban" is close to genius level witty alliteration.  Well done stuff, well done.

Article above, turns out they have so much meth in Bali, they're measuring it by the kilometre now!

...was sentenced to 15 years in jail after being caught with 1.8km of methamphetamine in his backpack at Denpasar Airport...

I too am a pedant but it requires great accuracy - so I think you mean ‘eats roots and leavesdepartment?





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.
