Another ILT arriving today

Yep its on the fedex truck to be delivered today. So stuck at home waiting for the parcel. This is the 1300ish hour one in my sig. Hope ebay GSP didn't repackage this one so badly that its a box of crushed metal. I've read some real horror stories about their habit of repackaging parcels to reduce volume and thus cost to them to ship - sometimes to the detriment of the parcels contents with glassware ending up broken and fine china smashed to bits.

I hope it arrives before 2 pm as I'd like to go to the pub to watch the big horse race - today is Melbourne Cup day and I have a small amount invested in the ponies :)

Its commonly referred to as "The race that stops the nation". everyone wether employed or not stops to watch the race, and even if you're recieving benefits its not too difficult to keep a buck or 3 to place a bet. People stop to watch the race either at work or on big screen tellys at the local public bar. Its an enjoyable afternoon of sillyness. The ladies get dressed up to impress the blokes wearing silly hats with feathers etc. Quite a fun day. Melbourne gets a public holiday for a horse race!

Mabye Lady Luck will be smiling at me and I'll get a working laser and a windfall on the nags!
