G'day guys,

Got into a bit of a problem. My girlfriend is stuck in north rocks at our new house and I'm in QLD still. We bought a fridge when I was down there but the guy then said we couldn't pick it up till after I left. Now he wants it collected on Wednesday.

Anyone here with a Ute or a Trailer that wouldn't mind helping my GF out? I doubt she can lift a fridge though :bunny:

There will be money in it, just name how much you want. It's only an old cheap fridge.

Or if anyone else has any other ideas let me know. She only has my wagon (stag) down there and couldn't tow even if the falcon was there.

It's a 20 minute drive to the fridge from north rocks, so I'm guessing an hour job? 20 mins there, 5 mins collect, 20 mins back, 5 mins unload. 10 mins looking at the stag.

ETA: Just been informed the washing machine also has to be collected before I get back now. So now it's just over an hour of driving. North Rocks -> Queens -> Five Dock -> North Rocks. Will obviously pay more now... But still should be what, an hour 40 mins job?

nawww does anyone know a company that doesn't charge an arm and a leg to collect them?

Would the fridge fit in the back of the stag if you lay it down ? You can ship a fridge that way you just have to let the fridge stand upright ( normal position ) overnight before you turn it back on.

It quite possibly would. Spotta would need to get dimensions of the fridge though...

Well if you go ahead with plan b laying the fridge down. Don't turn it on until after 24 hours or the fridge won't go no more.

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
