Thread: SWMBO (or I should have known better)

They make 20kg cement bags? :confused: :eek: Never, ever seen them up here.

I'll get her to try for a 40kg load in the Kenwood, may just work
Which frees up the mixer for pancakes

We don't have a mixmaster but we do have a Kenwood Chef which I (wrongfully) assumed was what she meant.
SWMBO is outside for about 1/2 an hour feeding horses then bursts in, 'where is it' .......I dutifully point at the kitchen bench, 'how can I concrete the path with that?'.
Oh woe am I, I should have realised that she meant set up the concrete mixer.
Why am I so stupid as not to realise that this was what she meant

Ian, perhaps this explains the scones that are as hard as concrete!

I just ordered a bag of 'cement' at about $55 for the 25kg.

Well, it is good for about 1800 degrees...

I wish the bags were 25kg when I was working in a hardware shop. Dragging them from the back to the front wasn't exactly enjoyable.

I kinda wondered what some people driving Jags and Mercs were thinking about when buying concrete though...

Way to go Rosemary
