Now there is a great idea, a moat with a drawbridge.  I might have to steal that idea for when my little princess starts dating....

I've heard that if you also rub it on your recovery points, it can increase their recovery rating.

That would depend on the age of your recovery points, old recovery points don't require it,  I've heard you can substitute 2 stroke for KY Gel on late model recovery points.
So a forum member has mentioned  ;D

Not the shed but house Reno...ran all the electrical wiring for my new office and a light on the front porch. I'm now itchy as buggery from lying on top of the insulation batts in the roof whilst pulling cables through the walls...grrrr. Glad it's not Summer yet, was sweating big time up in the roof space as it was.

Rumpig,

If that's Fibreglass you were lying on, it doesn't do you any good.
Ask the blokes that build Fibreglass/Plastic boats.

yeah it is, and yeah I know it's no good, but it had to be done....unfortunately the only way to reach where the wires needed to go, was to lay flat on the ceiling joists and reach into the soffits to get the "snake" I fed up the walls.

I made the Mrs a glide bench seat a while ago.
Put some castor wheels on it to make it easier to move around the yard, and a coat of timber oil to freshen it up.

The only problem with brownie points is that they seem to have a short-ish shelf life. And they are lost at a disproportionate rate than what they are earned  ;D
