Everybody meet my Dad. He's the loveliest man in the world. You can guess which one is him... although most of you probably already know. I'd be interested to see out of those who didn't know if they guessed right because we do look alike. This is him doing work, um I'm not sure exactly what he does but apparently it involves shaking hands and posing for pictures. Maybe he's the queen. Actually that's a pretty silly thing to say. He's not the Queen. Bradley is the Queen.
ANYWAY... there's a reason I decided to write about my Dad. There's a wee story. My Dad (who is wonderful) had a nice little outboard motor that didn't work. So he took it to a man to fix it. The man spent some time on it and then contacted Dad and told him "there's no point in fixing this motor, but since I've already spent about $200 worth of time and materials on it I won't charge you if you just give me the motor and I'll use it for parts." Ok so my Dad thought that sounded alright. I mean if the motor can't be fixed there's no point in having it around.
But here's the twist. Dad finds out that a friend of his at work has just bought an outboard motor. And low and behold it is the same motor the nasty man told Dad wasn't worth fixing. He sold it to Dad's friend for $600. Now that makes me mad! My Dad is such a nice person to everyone and then there are scummy people around who just rip people off and scam them. Shame on you you nasty horrible man!
Anyway I've been playing around with the layout and stuff of the blog. I'm not finished yet but I don't love doing it so it might stay like this for some time. If you really can't stand looking at it like this let me know and I'll change it back.
Bring on the weekend!
